Suggestions come from all fronts. This is the first year we watched the Golden Globes. We're glad we did because it gave us a heads up on 2 series we would have not known about otherwise. The NZ crime drama Top of the Lake was excellent with an award winning performance by Elizabeth Moss.

Stick with it. It's good. Most long form crime series pad out their stories with stuff, like the so called angry feminist element you speak of. However, misdirection is a key part of these dramas and the padding is the misdirection. While I don't want to give any spoilers, the misdirection

I have a question or two about the mantra origin. From what I gather, the history is that Shankara, when he established the 4 Maths around India placed a Sri Yantra with mantras on them at each location. Is there a picture of any of these SriYantras or Sri Vidyas showing this? Could one

This was an outstanding series. It's a shame that we have to resort to things like bit torrent to view awesome television like this in the US. These moronic IP, trade pacts, and just plain old Hollywood nonesense prevents us from getting quality programming until too late. I was very much

I watched both the US and European versions. Saga nailed it, where as Sonja was not as interesting or compelling. I liked the Euro version better, but the American version had a lot to offer as well, especially Sonja's partner Marco and her boss. They didn't need to stretch into 13 episodes

We gave the first episode of Marco Polo a shot tonight and enjoyed the hell out of it. I think this will tide me over until Da Vinci's Demons returns, since it is in a similar vain. Beautiful production. Is this the Weinstein Company's first venture into television?
