What TV shows are you excited to watch this autumn?

All the big TV shows are coming back in the coming weeks to keep us entertained when the evenings get chilly. :couchpotato: Are you looking forward to any?

I'm very excited for Bake Off. :woo: I didn't think it was coming back this year so it was a nice surprise to see it advertised! Only 3 days to go! :gah:

Count that to be lucky for you then. Many would say that’s 10 weeks too many.

Strictly has possibly run its course, and now resorting to so-called 'celebrities'. I understand the skill and training is a lot, its healthy and a skill, but I think most 'reality' shows have a limited lifespan. The Apprentice should have ended years ago, for example.

In all honesty, Strictly is still popular so I don’t think it’s run it’s course per-se but it does need some changes and where I think it suffers is because it’s run by BBC.

1) Forced diversity - whilst diversity is a good thing on paper, the BBC are hellbent on it. They now seem insistent to have a disabled contestant every year. For whatever reason, there doesn’t seem to be many people with a disability that have a reasonably high profile but as the BBC insist on it, that means a relatively meh signing (only Jonnie Peacock seemed to excite people).
2) They’re too determined to be a ‘family show’ and they go too far in trying to appeal to kids that it has recently ended up like a pantomime. Probably why Darcey Bussell left - a classy person like her probably saw the more recent series to be a bit of a joke and waste of her time.
3) Not enough money as they aren’t funded via adverts and ultimately have a smaller budget for the cast than ITV do. As you mentioned, it’s time consuming and unless it’s decent pay, I can see why some celebs turn it down.

All issues that can be fixed but if not. I fear that the show’s days are numbered and it’s a shame as I really do like it.

I'm looking forward to I'm a Celeb - always makes me excited for Christmas as I know it's not far away when it finishes
If by big shows you mean strictly, I’m a celeb etc, I’ll be watching prime or Netflix.
Turned on tonight to find little mix have their own talent show now. Seriously

the mandalorian is the best. so sad i don't have disney plus anymore. or netflix.
tru. Anakin skywalker was hot but like that series was sooooo bad. Padme was hot but her character was kinda rubbish, i thought she was going to be badass but instead she was just low key badass which isnt black widow badass type. nm
