Title: Your favourite T.V shows?
Post by: guest154 on May 02, 2012, 11:39:PM
Inspired by the 'Dallas' topic. What do you enjoy watching on the television?

When I get the chance I watch as many series as I can - not the biggest movie fan.

I enjoy :

Desperate Housewives (my guilty pleasure)
Damages, brillitantly legal.
I enjoyed 24 and LOST.

That I think makes him your 1st cousin once removed. I am very sad I know but I only found out recently how to work it out.I know the 80s were great as well. Does your dad live in same place as you?Did he go to uni there?

Football? Pah!!! How can you even call that a TV programme - boring boring boring. My guilty secret is 'Shameless', I'm completely addicted. I refuse to watch anything American.

Neighbours and NCIS. Mainly because they are quite similar. ::) ;D

Favourites at the moment are Two and a Half Men (Charlie Sheen not Aston Kutcher), Suits, Benidorm, Masterchef. I also enjoy watching repeats of Columbo, Perry Mason, Monk, Midsomer Murders (John Nettles not Neil Whatshisname), Bergerac etc.   :) :) :)

Dexter and Forensic documentaries. Apart from them, which is only occasionally. I don't watch television at all.....very rare.  :(

I'm not sure that it can be summed up in that way? Some psychopaths are positively evil. I'm not sure I go along with that belief that evil doesn't exist? It is just as much an active force as is love. If there was no evil then then that leaves the law with no right to punish those who wrong others.

Psychopaths that lose control will kill without emotion.  They have to be  locked up to protect the majority but would an extreme psychopath ie. someone without empathy or emotion recognise punishment or would he just build a power base inside prison instead. I'm not sure.

The main reason for courts is to judge with equity and the conviction is geared for punishment. What happens to the criminal after that can be anything they want it to be uncluding therapy or some kind of remedial treatment. But it doesn't alta the concept of good and evil. Both are active forces. The one for the good the other for bad.

I see what you're saying Graham. I was just wondering really whether a psychopathic personality would recognise punishment.  ??? ???

Probably not? But as you said, we can't let them run around free. That's why the courts can order psychological assessments isn't it?

I guess G.  Are all lifers tested yearly for personality disorders?  Is this for prison security?

Petey, of course I remember Chris Lawler, he was a household name in late 60s/early70s but went back and checked on him....61 goals as a defender is some record.  You must be really proud of him. ;D ;D

The books started going on about his 'Dark Pasenger' which disappeared and another person turned up with another 'Dark Passenger' and then it went into the realms of weird religious sect stuff, I haven't seen the new series yet but I've got all of the others on dvd. And John Lithgow was in it...and Robocop!!! I've never seen NCIS, I get it confused with CSI I think. I'm eagerly awaiting the new 'Walking Dead'. Did you say once that you are from Maldon?
