I finished watching the first series of Marvel's Iron Fist which I enjoyed despite, or possibly due to, it's slow building, origins nature and character (rather than action sequence) focus. I hope a second series follows and delivers on the multiple threads from this series, Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, The Punisher and others in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
I began watching the Hammer House of Horror Blu-ray box set a couple of nights ago and was amazed at how good it looks and sounds. The picture restoration is superb and it's been so long since I have watched the series that I have completely forgotten how the episodes unfold – it's like watching it for the first time! The order is completely different to the DVD release (I don't know why they initially didn't have it in broadcast order, this is probably something else which makes it feel fresh) and I'll continue watching it this evening.
