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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

lowculture investigates
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 [...]

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.
