I haven’t been able to get into new Channel 4 import The Good Wife, because whenever I’ve seen it, I’ve spent the time wishing I was watching Damages instead. Thankfully, the long wait for series three is now over, as it arrives on BBC One tonight. The Wednesday scheduling will take some getting [...]

Continuing our look at the best in CDs, DVDs, books and whatnot that you might want for Christmas, we move onto DVD box sets today. There are a whole bunch of decent offers around at the moment, and here are some of the best…

Post image for Bang Bang: I shot you down… or did I?

The second series of Damages has been even more twisty and turny than the first, something I wouldn’t have thought was possible. However, tonight, hopefully most of those twists and turns will reach their final destination and all will become clear. Well, possibly.
This series has benefited from the presence of a [...]

lowculture investigates
Two weeks ago, Steven looked at the state of teen drama, and last week I looked at British serial drama. This week, it’s the turn of American serial drama, and as my post last week seemed to have a karmic effect on Mistresses, which got a lot better that evening, I’m hoping this [...]

Post image for What’s the Damage?

The best drama on television continues apace tonight, as Damages hits its fifth episode. Everyone I know who’s watching it is already as intrigued, baffled and excited as we were last time around and I am pleased that my fears about them not being able to pull of a second series have so far [...]

Patty Hewes, now with added glam hair

Like Mad Men and 30 Rock, Damages is one of those American imports seemingly loved only by critics and your lowculture team. If you haven’t got into any of them yet, this week is your chance to rectify it, with the start of the second series of each (I know Mad Men started the [...]

CRIMINAL! Damages, BBC Four, 10.00pm

Damages was one of our favourite things of 2008, and if you didn’t see it first time round (which wouldn’t be a surprise going on the crazy scheduling it had in the first few weeks), now’s your chance to catch up with the BBC Four repeats so that when the new [...]

ANSWERS! Damages, BBC One, 10.35pm
Finally, our hard work and dedication is going to be paid off. We hope. After thirteen heart-thumping, gut-wrenching, brain-scratching weeks, Damages reaches its climax tonight. Well, the climax of series one, but we have every faith they’ll tie up at least most of the plot threads, or else [...]

HARMAN! City of Vice, Channel 4, 9pm

City of Vice actually started last week, but passed us by a bit as we had other things to preview, starring Jane Asher. In fact, it’s on at the same time as The Palace, so really you’ll need to record it or watch it on C4+1 or 4OD.
The series [...]
