Piers Taylor
The World's Most Extraordinary Homes
- This is not Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. This show is more about very unusual homes, like one built from an old jumbo plane, and how they were actually created. A great show if you're into interesting and unusual houses.
Jennifer Ehle
Pride & Prejudice
- This is the definitive Pride and Prejudice and the most successful TV period drama ever. Starring Colin Firth, Jennifer Ehle and a fabulous supporting cast, this BBC/A&E co-production pulsates with energy as lively, witty Elizabeth Bennet charms smouldering, haughty Darcy against a backdrop of a picture postcard countryside, small-town assembly rooms and stately English homes.
Josh Brener
Sarah Jessica Parker
Divorce
- Sure, Sarah Jessica Parker starred in Sex and the City, and that's certainly a mark against her. But both she and Thomas Church are excellent actors and Divorce is an intelligent, amusing take on a difficult process, without vilifying either party.
Sharon Stone
Mosaic
- There are a million murder mysteries on TV and in the movies, but this is an intelligent, serious mystery - HBO at it's best.
Gianni Agnelli
Agnelli
- Really fascinating documentary about the life of Gianni Agnelli: Fiat Boss, Style Icon, Playboy, and possibly, savior of postwar Italy. An amazing life filled with great joy and great sorrows.
HBO
Rome
- We have no idea if this HBO series about ancient Rome is historically accurate, but it is entertaining in the genre of epic dramas.
Zach Galifianakis
Bored to Death
- Meet Jonathan Ames: writer, romantic, unlicensed private detective. Moonlighting from his job as a novelist and writer for a New York magazine, Jonathan is looking to jettison some heavy emotional baggage (his girlfriend just dumped him, okay?) through an unusual second career of cracking cases of missing persons, espionage and infidelity in the Big Apple. Features some big names doing very funny work; Ted Danson as a publisher and Jonathan's mentor, and very funny stuff by Galifianakis, who can now be seen everywhere but not in nearly so delightful roles as this one, where he plays Jonathan's nutcase pal.
