Did Monday night’s political circus distract you from watching “Humans” on ABC2?

Go to iView ASAP !

It was the second last episode and ended with a cliff hanger.

Do Not Miss the final episode next Monday.  8)

So while we are all in a Sci-Fi mood after last night's excellent Dr Who.

I'll remind you that "Humans" concludes tonight on ABC2 at 8:30pm.  8)

Sorry Photon, but I think I'll be glued to ABC1 tonight:


7.30 Report, Australian Story (Profile of Malcolm Turbull), 4C (Dethroning of Tony Abbott), Q&A (Panellist: Bill Shorten).

Will there be a sequel to  "The Killing Season" starring Abbott, Turnbull & Bishop do you think ?

The last episode of Humans was bitter sweet.

Very different from the Swedish original but just as excellent.

I rated Humans at 4.5 out of 5 Photons:  8)8)8)8):)


Over to you Max...........

Did you see Albo on The Chaser's Media Circus last night ?

He’s definitely got a much better sense of humour than Bill.  :)

I may have found Max's alter ego  .........

Check out this review of Dr Who by the SMH's Michael Idato.

I partly agreed with Michael Idato. It did feel like The Curse of the Fatal Death where the Doctor and the Master were outdoing each other.  I also mentioned this in my recent post on the Doctor Who Thread.

Yes, The Principal was very good …not outstanding but still well worth watching.

I have always been a fan of Alex's since his Heratbreak High/Wildside days - he is a briiliant actor and didn't disappoint in this role.
He was compelling as usual and the young actor playing Tarek was also excellent.


Of course we  have seen this concept of disenfranchised , rebellious students versus authority/ “the establishment” many times before but with recent local events in the news, the subject matter is right on the mark.


Great to see Alex and Salvatore Coco ( Heartbreak High) reunited again .
Surprised they didn’t ask Abbi Tucker back to play the policewoman or one of the school counsellors.


I will definitely be watching the remaining 3 eps.

I’m glad that I didn’t watch Nine’s attempt to copy Q&A.


The Verdict recap: Karl Stefanovic's shout-fest was a stinking mess, and no match for Q&A

Of course Mark Latham was up to his usual tricks:

I doubt if I would watch Stefanovic if my life depended on oit. He's a complete dill and Latham not far behind.
