What's on the Box?

So, with about 65% of my Sky Box storage currently used up, I thought it was about time to review the contents. I'm not obsessive enough to work out the precise percentage of each show or category, but as a broad exercise it feels worth doing.

The first two categories - current programmes and long term keepers - aren't too bad. It's the backlog that's worrying, especially as the current shows (here and on Netflix) take up most of my viewing time. If I'm ever tempted by Sky Q I just need to look at this and ponder when in the hells I would ever be able to watch all the TV it offers me the chance to record simultaneously.

Current
These are the shows I am watching as they come in, or intend to get onto quickly.




  • The Exorcist - first 2 episodes
  • Westworld - current only
  • Supergirl - current only
  • The Flash - current only
  • Arrow - current only
  • Legends of Tomorrow - current only, as of the series start (aptly enough) tomorrow
Long term/Permanent
These are shows that don't get deleted because I keep them on for Arya.

  • PAW Patrol - 7 episodes (because Season 3 isn't on Netflix)
  • Sarah & Duck - 5 episodes (again, just Season 3 episodes, in this case because we have series 1 and 2 on DVD)
  • Melody - 39 episodes
  • The Clangers - 23 episodes
  • The Pajanimals - 25 episodes
  • Alphablocks - 88 episodes
  • CBeebies Bedtime Stories - 23 episodes
  • CBeebies Prom - 1 episode

Lingering
These are shows that have been on there for a while, waiting to be watched Real Soon Now. They are the ones that are going to be culled if I ever need the space.

  • Bitten
    • 3 episodes of Season 1
    • 7 episodes of Season 2
  • Humans
    • 2 episodes of Season 1, the remaining 6 queued in Box Sets

  • Agents of SHIELD
    • 2 episodes of Season 3, another 13 queued in Box Sets
  • Neil Gaiman's Likely Stories - 1 episode
  • The Musketeers - Last 2 episodes
