Q: Whats the best show to watch on smoggy China days?

I just started watching The Following. It's so intense and makes me feel less guilty about staying inside all day. But then again the air is quite bad outside i think it's wise to stay indoors or so I tell myself Wink

I loved The Following. Check out Under the Dome. Another great mystery drama.

usually if i can get my hands on anything from HBO, i am happy. Although i like to vary it with a good BBC drama.

EDIT: I should also add, Nordic TV like 'The Killing' 'Borgen' and 'Wallender' are absorbing as well

Scandinavian:

then go for the original Danish/Swedish version of "The Bridge", unless you've already seen the American adaptation, the story is 95% the same

Also a lot of UK channel 4 shows are good. Skins, Shameless, Misfits.
Also the show An Idiot Abroad. Watch the China episode. Karl Pilkington is hilarious!!

Doc Martin, very good British comedy/drama. Light hearted stuff and I find perfect to switch off to the world with.

If you are looking for something more gritty, I suggest Ripper Street, Whitechapel or The Tudors.

I have a whole raft of British stuff that I watch, it's all very different. Just depends what I feel like seeing at the time.

I download it from this place - www.tvchaosuk.com

Rin:

Doc Martins great for a lazy Sunday afternoon. Ripper street is good too. You can watch all of Doc Martin on Hulu if you have a VPN, and Ripper street you can stream on funshion.com no need for a VPN.
