I just googled her, and I have not seen anything that she has been in!

I must admit I do not watch or go and see many movies or TV shows!
Cheers big ears

I had a look at "how to get away with murder" too.

I'm happy enough to be behind and just watch it as FTA puts it up, at least until they start stuffing with the scheduling then, if I like it, it's download time and no regrets.

I guess you could say I have a prejudice against loud, annoying, rude leftists. Just plain leftists still have to be a huge wanker before I turn against them. Tony Jones and Annabel Crabb for example I just love.

Back on Dunham, like I said, that issue was a start to show what I mean. Also victims of abuse don't have to identify as victims to BE victims, try that line when an abused wife says she's not really abused and it's all fine and leave her lovely husband alone.

I would add that she's a barely talented, nasty piece of shit who is so filled with hatred and bile to those that she sees as outgroups to her own agenda that all I am doing is reflecting it back at her. She also completely fabricated a rape story to paint her picture of 'evil white conservatives' but the only guy who could possibly be the perpetrator was found to have an airtight alibi but still had to deal with the press tracking him down and having the 'rapist' shadow cast over him.

Haha, okay. Perhaps we should just agree to disagree on this one, or else I will also go into berserker ragegasm. I don't love everything about Lena, but I have engaged in some ... shall we say, less-than-civil debates over on the IMDb forums over her. :)

Watch "Hiding" on the ABC tonight at 8.30. Suspense guaranteed.

Recorded Gogglebox last night and skimmed through it later, it was rather boring.

Recorded Gallipoli the other night. Watched it last night.

The recording showed 1 hour and 48 minutes. The actual show time would have been about an hour. The amount of ads is pathetic, and one of the main reasons I use Netflix now for most stuff.

I am so enjoying The Flash. Just great, the DC namedropping is brilliant. Taken the platform of Arrow and built on it beautifully and following on from the genre invented by Smallville.
For a DC nerd, heaven on a stick.

I pretty much just record everything now. I wait about 20 minutes then start watching so I can forward through the ads and finish at the same time.
