I have both and have burned through, most on both. I have watched all of midsummer so far, so I'll check out what going on. I'm not paying per episode. I bet other people will quit. That sucks

I'm all caught up on Silent Witness and was waiting for the new season (24) to drop. It's already released on British TV.

I was also looking forward to Season 25. (Hope I'm still around, that could be 3 years from now). Amanda Burton is reprising her role in celebration of the shows 25th anniversary. I believe I also read she's been signed on for season 26.

our vast British DVD collection for the second (sometimes third) time and I still can't find some I want to see. I'd love to get the entire collection of "Law & Order: UK," but I can't find it for Region 1. That's one. Also looking for season 5 of "Luther" for Region 1.
