In this 13 part series, Robin Hood returns home after many years away fighting the Crusades to find his fellow villagers at the mercy of the new Sheriff. For the first time, Robin decides to pick up bow and arrow, and take on the law itself... Anyone checked out the first ep to this? I only just saw the torrent and thought it might be interesting. Over at tv.com the reviews are up and down like a honeymooners cock so it would be good to hear from a reliable source. |

Man a hardcore HBO-stylez Robin Hood would be the f***ing s***. I'm guessing it is a pussied out childrens show though?

Heroes is decent, "Dexter" is also worth checking out.

Heroes is pretty good Wet. Although there have only been two eps it's taking a bit too long to get into it so hopefully the third one will change all that.

I stumbled upon "The Unit" when doing my channel BT rounds, it follows the guys in a US special forces unit.
The dude who plays David Palmer in 24 is in it so I thought I'd check it out. I watched all of season 1 and thought it was alright. So if you are into that kinda stuff check it out :) It makes me sad how much crap tv we have over here :( Too much BS reality crap, I wanna see more of these US shows over here already! I guess they made a start with prison break... but MOREEEEEEEE! |

Robin Hood: Men in Tights was one of my favourite movies when I was younger, and it's still f***ing hillairious today. It used to piss me off when it would be on TV, and the f***ing TV guide would give it 1 star.

Dexter could be good. First episode was very interesting. May be too quirky and dark for TV, though it certainly takes the crime investigation dramas up a notch.
Smiths is f***ing awesome, but by the look of things just got cancelled - so you know it IS GOOD. Typical. But it's definitely worth watching the first three episodes. Basically Smith is Heat but in TV series form and starring Ray Liotta. |

New Robin Hood series is a bit lame, but entertaining. Taken as a B-grade TV show that gives a few laughs, it's not too bad. It probably deserves a slot somewhere between 11pm and 3am (if we still watched TV, that is). 6.5/10

I stumbled upon "The Unit" Made by the team that make the Shield so you know that it's gonna be awesome! Don't understand how they haven't explained what happened with the S1 finale as yet an it's now 3 eps into Season 2 :/ It's almost like it never happened. Seen a few eps of Smith now an thought it had a lot of potential. Typical they ax all the decent shows. |

Kinda agree with XandraX.
Just finished watching episode 1. It starts out pretty s***, acting seemed pretty teeth clenching but it does redeem itself a little bit towards the end of the first episode. I'll definately give a few more eps a go when they come out. But at this rate i wouldn't be saddened if it got axed. 5/10 - Watchable but doesnt leave you wanting more; let down by a couple of s*** actors. |

farken pissed off about smith getting the axe - watched the first preair ep over the weekend and it looked awesome :/
you would think they'd give it more then 3 eps to test the waters, maybe 5-6 weeks worth... dunno, that's probably why I am not a tv programmer :p |

I've heard a few good things about it, I'm grabbing it now, review later in the week :P Heroes is awesome so far, i'm halfway through 2nd ep atm, it's prosauce so far. Best comicbookesque idea to movie or tv style adaption yet (so far) that i've seen. 8.5-9 /10 so far. |

Finally got around to watching it and it is pretty atrocious. I don't know why they have to make robin hood some type of super human ninja/archer/fighter who is somehow also over the top noble. HBO needs to make a robin hood series, I'd watch it.

dude you should be shot for recommending robin hood. that was horrendously bad, bad acting, very bad camera work, bad action, just everything bad. It's like a live action saturday morning tv show, I would have loved it when I was 6
