BBC America shows

[Giant Chicken]

Hey guys. I know there are threads for Downton Abby and Dr. Who. I have recently discovered some other shows on BBC that are amazing!! I really like how there are just a few high quality episodes in each season with absolutely no filler.

I am almost finished with Luther and just started Broadchurch. Both shows are awesome!!

I am wondering if there are any other shows worth checking out? Anyone know of any?

I watched the first season of Copper. I liked it and planned to watch season 2 but missed the start of the new season. Merlin was entertaining for what it was. That lasted five seasons I think. Recently found out that BBC is doing a series about the Musketeers. Never dreamed there would be tv series about vikings, knights, pirates, and musketeers EVER, let alone all on at basically the same time. The 10 year old in me is bouncing off the walls.

Wow. Some good looking tv there. Will need to start hunting them down.

Thank you

Ultraviolet - If you like Idris Elba, he is supporting character in this show about vampires in Britain. Sadly BBC canceled it because it was considered too edgy for the BBC and too edgy for it's time. Elba has a scene where he's trapped in a warehouse that is considered the best scene in the entire series. Pretty well done considering the time it was made. It only run six episodes.

Err, wasn't Ultraviolet a Channel 4 series?
