Bed of Roses (2008)
Just plain silly
Offered on Acorn TV, so I decided to watch the entire first season just to see if it improved. The main character was a ditz and none of the other characters were especially likable. I am stunned that it lasted 3 seasons. I sure won't bother watching anymore.
Atlantis (2013)
Refreshing, lighthearted and humorous
What a fun show! Mocking and twisting up mythology, which amuses me. I am not into mythology so I do not feel insulted as some of the purist reviewers seem to be.
I so enjoy NOT watching dreary blood and guts, gratuitous explicit sex scenes, vulgar dialogue and car chases.
If that means I have the intellect of a 12-year old, then HOORAY. As a senior citizen, the graphic trash depicting evil simply disgusts and bores me.
The Brokenwood Mysteries (2014)
I enjoy this show immensely...
Such a refreshing change from the vulgar, brutal and predictable standard cop shows that Hollywood produces. I enjoy the dialogue, the plots, the stunning scenery and the very entertaining characters. I am beginning to understand the accent without reading captions! :-)
Makes me wish I could visit NZ. But until then, I look forward to the next series coming to AcornTV.
