军情五处 第八季

　　《马普尔小姐探案》第五季：白马酒店、名苑猎凶、蓝色天竺葵、破镜谋杀案。
　　世界推理史上与波罗、福尔摩斯比肩的“安乐椅神探”——马普尔小姐隆重登场！
　　目光慈祥，容颜清癯，银发如霜，小乡村里，安乐椅上，摇啊摇地编着白色羊毛衫——这么一位普普通通的老太太，怎么就成了推理史上声名显赫、令江湖恶棍闻风丧胆的乡村女神探？
　　只能说，案件是复杂的，推理是简单的，世事是奇妙的。马普尔小姐的出现，几乎是在证明每个人——即便象我们这样的凡夫俗子，都可以轻易成为神探，只要你能象她一样具备两大断案法宝——惊人敏锐的观察力，以及对人性超级深刻的洞察力。
　　当然，其实做不做神探都不打紧，夜半时分，寻把摇椅，倒杯茶，陪马普尔小姐坐着，看月光下，窗帘响处，凶手现形……一样过瘾十足。
　　阿加莎克里斯蒂经典篇目全新改编，超豪华演出阵容，史上最强版本。

　　本剧叙述在野党影子内阁成员Jim Hacker在帮助本党大选获胜之后得到行政事务部（DAA）部长的职务，从此开始面对以部秘书Sir Humphrey Appleby为首的公务员体系，而他的公派私人秘书、同属公务员的Bernard则夹在了当中。在Hacker所代表的政客以及Appleby所代表的公务员之间因施政而发生的种种冲突之中，两人的关系不停地发生变化，既有互相捂盖子，也有互相揭老底。与此同时，英国政治体制（包括政党体制和公务员体制）中的种种不为外人所知弊端和黑幕也展现在观众眼前。当然所有这些都是通过大量喜剧情节和台词展开。在本系列后半部分的《Yes Prime Minister》中，Hacker通过党内角力当上了首相，而Appleby也已先他一步当上了首相秘书，两人的故事移到唐宁街10号继续展开。

　　An offbeat, laugh track-lacking sitcom about a bizarrely dysfunctional family, the center of which is Malcolm, the middle of the two brothers who still live at home. His eldest (and favorite) sibling, Francis, boards at military school because his parents believe it will reform him and keep him out of trouble. Malcolm often has a hard time coping with his family life, but he has more troubles to contend with when he starts receiving special treatment at school after being diagnosed as an intellectually advanced genius.

　　本剧继续通过荧幕呈现James Herriot创作的故事，观众将回到Darrowby，重新加入不拘一格、备受喜爱的Skeldale大家庭，以及1940年代生活在约克郡山谷的农场主、动物和乡亲们。

　　《超感警探》英文片名为《The Mentalist》，由美国CBS发行，金球奖提名者Simon Baker主演，饰演一位过去曾长期在媒体上发表各类关于精神疾病和超自然感觉的文章，并且一直担任电视谈话节目的嘉宾，俨然是一个心理专家，但这位 "半名人" 自己也承认，他所谓的 "超自然能力" 纯粹是糊弄人的骗局－－只不过他的观察力和感知力远比别人强而已。

　　USA正式确定<妙警贼探>第六季，该剧将以六集的迷你季结束全剧。

　　布莱德利·詹姆斯(《梅林》)将主演Netflix新动画剧《解放者》(The Liberator)。为什么是主演动画？因为拍摄方法较特殊，将用Trioscope技术，将最新的CG科技结合真人表演来呈现，据称既有动画的视觉美丽，也有严肃题材所需的丰富人类情感细节(图2为效果图)。该剧为二战题材，来自真实事迹，詹姆斯饰演第157步兵团的美军军官Felix Sparks，团员大都是牛仔、美国土著、墨西哥/美国人，Sparks就是一个来自亚利桑那的牛仔，故事聚焦他在解放欧洲的战场上一段超过500天的旅程，从进攻意大利开始，到解放纳粹的达豪集中营。Sparks强大而满怀悲悯之心，敢于无视不关心属下生死、只关心自己前途的长官。在这500天里，他从少尉升为中校，手下的人也从一个连变为10000多人，是一个杰出的“前线领导”人物。
　　剧本改编自Alex Kershaw的书籍《解放者：一个二战士兵的500天冒险》，Jeb Stuart(《虎胆龙威》《亡命天涯》)任主创、编剧和执行制作人。共4集，全部由Trioscope技术的创始人之一Grzegorz Jonkajtys执导。

　　Mrs. Brown's Boys became a runaway success upon its initial broadcast. Every episode aired won its timeslot for RTÉ, with an average viewership of 753,500 in January, 2011. One episode's rating beat that of RTÉ's own ratings giant The Late Late Show, with 856,000 viewers tuning in to watch. However, critics disliked the show. "The whole thing is entirely predicated on viewers finding a man dressed as a foul-mouthed elderly woman intrinsically funny," noted Bernice Harrison in the Irish Times. "If you do, you’re away in a hack (and the viewing figures are astronomical), but if you don’t, and you think that died out with Les Dawson and Dick Emery, then it’s a long half-hour." The Irish Independent said that Mrs Brown's Boys was the type of TV programme that "that makes you vaguely embarrassed to be Irish". The Daily Telegraph's Sam Richards noted that show's comedy has a "rudimentary nature", consisting of "an old-fashioned blend of silly voices and slapstick, played out in front of a live studio audience who collapse into giggles at the mere mention of the word “willy”.

　　A comedy trivia quiz based around pop music, originally hosted by Mark Lamarr up to October 2006, currently hosted by Simon Amstell. Te am captains Phil Jupitus and Bill Bailey (who replaced Sean Hughes in May 2002) are joined each week by different music stars. Popular rounds include one where team members have to identify song intros hummed to them and another where a bygone music star has to be picked out of a line-up of lookalikes.
