  1. Revenge continues to be huge in Australia. It's easily the highest rating scripted show on Australian TV. Episode 1-2,067,000 #1 for the weekEpisode 2-1,800,000 #2 for the weekEpisode 3-1,799,000 #2 for the weekEpisode 4-1,960,000 #1 for the week

  2. You have FX in Australia now?I love FX they are a great channel here. They always jump on the TV rights for blockbuster movies so they tend to always have great movies playing. Also they are the home channel of Sons of Anarchy, Nip/Tuck, Always Sunny, and others.

    Yes. It's called FX but it's not exactly the same as the FX in the US. Looks like it will have some FX shows, some AMC shows plus shows from other channels. Breaking Bad for example is currently on our version of Showtime. We only really have 2 payTV providers in Australia. Foxtel via cable in the capital cities and Austar via satelite in regional areas. It's actually soon to be 1 as they are in the process of merging. PayTV penetration in Australia is only about 34%.
  3. Just noticed that Tomorrow, When the War Began is now available for download from the US iTunes Store. It's currently #46 on the movie chart. DVD release this week as well.I'd read the first few books years ago and enjoyed the movie but upon reflection wished they'd done more with it. Especially some of the acting and at times it felt a bit rushed.I should add it has an R rating. It was only rated M in Australia meaning anyone could watch it.

  4. But why would they have thought that out a bit more?I also assume they have a private ferry.

    Even so, it would take a minimum of 30 minutes to get there and somehow they're the first responders. Why did the guy wait 30 minutes after stopping the train before releasing the poison gas. I know the geography of TV world is not the same as the real world(plus this is shot in Vancouver) but it just really bugs me.@fishnets.It seems they tipped the scale more towards your standard procedural and not enough mystery.
  5. It's starting to bug me how they're on the island. Seriously, the BART train has stopped in the tunnel between SF and Oakland and they see this on a screen while on Alcatraz. So they catch a boat from Alcatraz to Fisherman's Wharf, then by car to a service entrance to the BART tunnel, then ride the service cart to the location of the stopped train. I know it's just a TV show but they really could have thought this through a bit more.On side note. It could have been me. I've ridden the BART to a Warriors game across the bay.

  6. Lori's actions in this episode were just stupid. Rick goes into town, knowing that girl is sick, to get Herchel. Then, literally 5 minutes later, Lori decides she needs to go get Rick. It was just an idiotic setup for some future plot development. Basically ruined the episode for me. Let's hope this isn't a sign of things to come.
