I remember seeing the poster of Don standing in an empty room with just a phone on the floor, so I kind of new something was going to happen. But still, the episode surprised me.

I hope the rest of the cast doesn't just disappear now, though. Kenny is my nicca :'(

Himu · « **Reply #5645 on:** July 31, 2012, 11:44:02 AM »

Kenny sticks around and is involved in the greatest Mad Men episode of all time (season 5 ep).

The things I would do to that man.

My husband and I don't have a "hot celebs we could bang if we ever encountered" pact, because it never made much sense. My pick (Duchovny) looks kinda like my husband, and the only female celeb he's ever really been attracted to was Portman (no fistful) and then he met me. Not worth the hassle.

But Louie CK.... I dunno we might have to have that convo. Louie might be his pick too.

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #5648 on:** August 03, 2012, 02:18:43 PM »

Louie was fantastic. I'm related to a kid like Never and yes they are hopeless cause of their parents.

I knew a kid like that too. He at asthma and his parents wouldn't let him do anything but play PC games and watch movies. And he couldn't eat anything outside of tofu and some other shit. Of course he was a spoiled pos and acted like a king because his family treated him like one.

He tried spitting on my cat, right in front of my mom. She grabbed his shirt and shook her finger in his face. Naturally he told his mom that my mom slapped him around, punched him in the belly, anally probed him, stabbed him with a rusty knife - he basically threw the kitchen sink at her lmao. His mom got into a near catfight with mine, but multiple neighbors saw the entire thing and came to my mom's defense.

(when my dad heard about it later he shook his head and said "typical angry black woman..." My mom didn't take it as a joke, and my dad wound up sleeping in the basement that night

That's only true because she's older than me.

bdoughty · « **Reply #5663 on:** August 06, 2012, 12:52:58 AM »

It's gonna be a Skyler episode, stick around for the fun. At least the final few seconds was enjoyable.

Himu · « **Reply #5664 on:** August 06, 2012, 12:54:21 AM »

If you are against Skylar after this episode and still making excuses for Walt, you may or may not be a shitty excuse of a human being.

bdoughty · « **Reply #5665 on:** August 06, 2012, 12:58:20 AM »

It is a TV show for cripes sake. Skyler sucks all the entertainment value out of the show. I am not rooting for anyone, except for maybe the fact Jessie went a whole episode without crying.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #5666 on:** August 06, 2012, 02:05:39 AM »

Great episode. I don't see how anyone can defend Walt after that scene.

ZephyrFate · « **Reply #5667 on:** August 06, 2012, 03:02:41 AM »

Marie is like the Betty Draper of Breaking Bad but somehow more annoying and less interesting. This episode was a draaaaaaaaaag until those last few minutes.

brawndolicious · « **Reply #5668 on:** August 06, 2012, 06:19:20 AM »

I fucking love Jason Stackhouse.

Breaking Bad was pretty awesome too I guess. You can feel all those problems coming together for the finale. Between neutering Mike's security solutions and bullying Skylar, the man is setting himself up for a pretty epic fall.

Verdigris Murder · « **Reply #5669 on:** August 07, 2012, 02:25:53 PM »

Veeps great guys! Totally the first ep is so so, but the ice cream thing was great, especially the bit with the journalist and the old black woman's exchange. The Thick of It got funnier and funnier too until the last series.

I just finished watching Firefly. I'm sorry I talked shit about this show and made fun of it's fans. It was a really enjoyable experience and I'm really bummed there isn't more of it beyond the movie.

I'm going to watch Outlaw Star again because I got that vibe from Firefly.

And Cowboy Bebop, to a lesser degree. At least the "most wanted" TV show shorts somehow remind me of Firefly.

Don't know if you like comics, but there are a couple series that flesh out around the episodes and the gap to the movie. One series follows Book to the movie.

I rewatched Breaking Bad Season 4 and I still found it to be a great show. Reminds me a lot of the episodes of The Wire or The Shield where you couldn't just stop at one episode.

Breaking Bad Season 5 so far, not so much. I'm going to spoiler tag my thoughts:

spoiler (click to show/hide)

- Skyler pretty much lost all of the redeeming qualities about her and now has become this unstable trainwreck in the making for not much reason. I can understand wanting to protect her kids but walking into a pool seems stupid. She's handled far more stressful situations with better grace than this.
- Walt and Jesse are now bffs 4 lyfe and some of the painfully awkward scenes that result from that
+ I do like how this season shows the behind the scenes of what made Fring's empire work, who the players are behind the player

[close]

I'm also getting into The Larry Sanders show. Seems good and the wikipedia article makes it seem like a great show so I'll be continuing on with this show. Obviously the humor is dated but this seems like good background noise.

I just gave up on Deadwood halfway through the third season. Shame.

Diunx · « **Reply #5679 on:** August 12, 2012, 06:58:48 PM »

That third season of Deadwood is fucking bullshit, all that build up for nothing.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #5680 on:** August 13, 2012, 10:57:34 PM »

I Claudius

Oh man, this show is awesome (three eps in so far). I've been longing for a show with political intrigue, back stabbing, great writing etc set in a Roman, Greek, or Medieval setting. Rome is very good but didn't really hit that nail on the head for me.

She deliberately stepped into the pool, it's not that she "lost it." The goal was to make Hank and Marie so concerned that they'd side with her on removing the kids from the house. That entire scene reminded me of Walt's fake fugue state from a couple seasons ago

Skylar has been great this season imo, and everything she has done has made sense.

Good point. Seems clear now that I think about it.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #5685 on:** August 14, 2012, 11:40:48 PM »

I always found it weird that the brilliant mastermind Walt apparently didn't know who the IRS were until Skylar started handling the money. Dude, you don't realize you're leaving a giant money trail?

spoiler (click to show/hide)

you can tell that once Hank will put it all together very soon. He's constantly taking note of all of Walt's big purchases
