BBCA has great shows:

Orphan Black (one of my absolute favs!)
Copper
Ripper Street
Torchwood
MI-5
They are getting ready to start:
Flemming
The Musketeers
And from BBC but shown on PBS
Downton Abbey
Call The Midwife
Sherlock
Bletchley Park
House of Cards (the original)
The Hour
Bramwell
The Brits know how to do good TV.

(1,942 posts)I loved Bletchley Park, that was so good. Wish it could have gone on longer. And so many of the others are awesome as well. I always rave about the original House of Cards, Sherlock is superb, Torchwood, Orphan Black (I'm still trying to find the last few of the first season that I missed before the next season starts. I'm praying that they will run a marathon before the new premiere so I can catch up.) all excellent. Don't forget Broadchurch!
I'll check into a couple of the others you mention here that I don't know eg Bramwell, The Hour. I'm sure I won't be disappointed. A&E has been a joke for a long time now.

(10,946 posts)cable or satellite but on cox cable all of the first season of Orphan Black is available On Demand. I gave up having a DVR box months ago but kept one digital box to access to the On Demand feature. That is a less expensive then the DVR service and paying for the DVR box. The bonus is that, even though I do not subscribe to BBCA, somehow I have access to BBCA On Demand. So I can still watch their shows but on a delayed basis.

(1,942 posts)I just 're-found' the first season last night after I posted here. We have Verizon FIOS and it does have On Demand, and I had looked there previously because I thought I had watched the first part of the first season there. I looked at all of the sections--tv shows, most popular, primetime etc. Even in the BBCA section but I could not find it listed. Then last night I tried once more and noticed BBCA HD and there it was. Not sure why I missed it before, just oblivious I guess. Anyway, am almost caught up, just two episodes to go. Thanks for the suggestion, it would have helped if I had not wandered into the answer by accident.
