On television...our favorite series

Autumn is a season where we tend to stay at home a little more, relaxing, enjoying a good book or a film or a game. We have opted for ADSL TV and our provider is Orange, the main French telephone operator. We currently have a package with TV+phone+internet. We added to this package a subscription to Orange Cinema Séries (12€ monthly) which adds a few interesting channels with recent series and films and which allows you to watch the programs on demand, very convenient indeed.
Anyway right now we are watching (just mum and dad) The Walking Dead, season 2, which is being aired from November 2011 on Orange Cinema Séries. The family enjoys M6 channel's The Good Wife and NCIS, TF1's channel Mentalist, France 2's series Castle. Then I must admit mum and girls like to watch Gilmore Girls from time to time, Malcolm in the Middle is a lot of fun for us! These are two old series but we just love the characters and it gives you a good laugh. This month we are also seeing a few John Ford westerns from Ciné Géant... which remind us of our 2007 trip to West USA, and this gorgeous visit of Monument Valley... So tonight let's take a hot chocolate and go for a film...

Let's travel into space

Cécile de France

A few words about Cécile de France  (born in Belgium July 7, 1975)

A few years ago we had fun watching Around the World in 80 Days... where Cécile is Monique La Roche artist and young adventurous lady who follows Phileas Fogg and Passepartout round the world. Today Cécile de France is a brilliant and wonderful actress.

A few films:
Marie Lelay in Clint Eastwood's film Hereafter.
2011 films are "A Kid with a Bike" and "A Butterfly Kiss"
Coming next "Talk Show" and "A Chinese Puzzle"...
