The Good Karma Hospital

Oh well, I'm obviously easy to please. Enjoy CTM and what I have so far seen of the other one.

Just finished watching this on catchup. Meh! We aren't all going to be humming the theme tune any time soon are we ?

How on earth do you pronounce 'meh'?

Does anyone actually say it?

My teenage DGDs do, Ana but I haven't a clue what they're on about.

Amanda Redman's one-liners are the best bit of the programme, I think.

It denotes (I think) that one is unimpressed with something! (You had to be there!).

I`m another easily pleased then, I love Call the Midwife (have also read all the books) also Casualty, but can`t stand Holby City.

I quite enjoyed The Good Karma Hospital so will watch again next week. I have returned to Call The Midwife (I couldn't watch it when they dealt with the thalidomide crisis as it was too sad) and I am really enjoying it again.

Love the expression 'meh', don't use it mehself, but enjoy it when it's written down, and can imagine the face of the user. Small pleasures

Can't stand Call The Midwife ????!

Oh thankyou grannylynn65 I have been too cowardly to admit that in view of the lovefest on here but it is so sweet and sickly!!.

I m another who's not into 'call the midwife' and although I found Good Karma innocuous I didn't bother with it this week very light and fluffy and not really enough to make me want to watch it again It felt very old fashioned with no real substance

I actually kind of liked GKH , its inoffensive , Sunday evening viewing. I shall be seeing where it goes .

I like "Call the Midwife", but find "Good Karma Hospital" so predictable I could write it myself (probably true of "Call the Midwife" too, but at least some of that is true to life - I can remember!) The only "GOOD" thin about the Karma Hospital is the fact that it is not all in the DARK.

CTMW is sickly sweet a lot of the time but it does deal with the gritty stuff too. Last nights episode was a prime example.
GKH is easy watching, it's not something I would record if going out but I enjoy it.

I enjoy both. Not sure if that makes me easily pleased but they make for a relaxed, feet up, Sunday evening, a time I really don't want challenges.

Well I had hoped it would be a relaxed easy view. But am so disappointed the characters are unbelievable, and in some cases miscast. The story line is poor. Shame.

I gave it another chance last night but that's it for me. I thought it was completely rubbish. Maybe worthy of a Midweek afternoon at 1.30 pm.

I ve left it too couldn't waste any more time on it shame I thought it might have been promising

I love Call the Midwife.

I thought, from the previews, that the Karma Hospital thing looked a bit corny. I've recorded both episodes so far but haven't been able to work up the enthusiasm to watch them yet.

I must admit to being very surprised by which GN members like/dislike Call the Midwife!

're CTM - I watched the first series and (as teetime said upthread) the storyline had run its course and it got boring. I did like the Christmas Special though, because of the different setting.

As for GKH, I shall watch this first series for the light entertainment factor, plus I am a sucker for colourful locations. Sometimes I look more at the whole picture on the screen and less at the actors and listen to the dialogue as if it's on the radio.
