hey hey! I still really liked it. But the ending to the Ireland arc left a sour taste. I was okay with it until they got back and there was no damn progression. Oh well. It was still enjoyable but I would have been pissed if I watched it week to week

Yeah it was cool when I watched S1 and S2 straight through and then watched S3 on television. $:-\$

ZephyrFate · « **Reply #4081 on:** January 06, 2012, 04:52:33 PM »

S4 is much better than S3.

I finished watching all of the episodes for Breaking Bad on Netflix and god damn, what a great show. It seems like Season 4 gets even crazier. I always associated Cranston with Dr. Whatley on Seinfeld and I like his range of talent. According to the wiki, I guess he wanted to be in the show to prove that he had that range. Great shit go watch it

It's a perfect mix of drama and dark comedy.

I've also been catassing Archer. A local radio morning show has been pimping that shit since it started showing and wow. I liked stuff like Sealab quite a bit and this reminds me of Sealab but with a larger than shoestring budget. It reminds me of Adult Swim before it devolved to crap like Tim & Eric and NTSF:SD:SUV.

ZephyrFate · « **Reply #4085 on:** January 07, 2012, 01:34:58 PM »

whoa what? NTSF:SD:SUV:: and Childrens Hospital are among the funniest shows on TV. Childrens Hospital easily has the highest laughs-per-minute of any show ever, they cram so much into 11 minutes.

Keep watching. This is one of the few shows that gets better with each passing season. Amazing. There's so much more badass shit

I finished SOA season 3. The last episode totally redeemed shit with the exception of the highly anticipated and obvious "gotcha" moment at the end where Jax and Clay and everyone starts laughing. But damn everything else was awesome. Unser was a badass as always.

I was a bit miffed at the way they handled the big breakthrough on the case.

spoiler (click to show/hide)

Sherlock uses a cognitive trick to think really hard and explains the significance of clues that were introduced half an hour ago, not by using anything that's happened since then, but by making a connection to something which hasn't been introduced yet. Bah humbug!

Still, fun show and I can't get too mad at it. Liked the interactions with the locals.

wrapped S01 of Supernatural. It got reallly fun towards the end of the season. I like the relationships between the brothers and I like that their dad is used sparingly and to great effect.

Piracy is not an option. I downloaded one episode of Big Love before getting HBO and get a letter from Comcast about it.

I thought the Homeland finale went downhill FAST after

spoiler (click to show/hide)

Brody doesn't detonate the bomb. I mean I understand why they can't do that, but that's because of American television needing to stretch things out as long as possible. Wish it was just a miniseries. Not looking forward to Carrie slowly remembering to suspect Brody again.

use icefilms.info. Follow the download directions (you just need the Greasemonkey script and an older version of divx, linked on the site). You can watch just about anything on it without having to download things, and it's safe.

Yea; technically he could be killed as president, but it would have to be off camera (no way a bullet to the neck would be ok lol). But S4 is the one where Charles Logan becomes president after the sitting president is killed on Air Force One. The original plan was for him to be shot on the plane iirc, but Fox made them change it to Air Force One crashing after being shot down (lol). IIRC they don't even show his body in the debris.

In S6 the Other Palmer gets blown into a coma

So technically Brody could have exploded and it would be some wide shot of the building going up in smoke. But I still think Showtime would shy away from that

I had low expectations for Californication, and they met those expectations. Not sure where they're going to go with this, other than it's 2+ years after it left off. meh

A two-part period drama adapted from the novel by Charles Dickens. A strange, disturbing and modern tale about drugs, stalking and darkness visible, The Mystery of Edwin Drood by writer Gwyneth Hughes is a two-part psychological thriller about a provincial choirmaster’s obsession with 17-year-old Rosa Bud and the lengths he will go to to attain her.

God I love the BBC. Watching later.

I tried, but I couldn't watch more than an episode or so. Not because it's bad, but because it is *so* painful and awkward to watch. I had a similar problem with Peep Show, but I eventually got over it with that show.

btw that chick (Tazmin Merchant) was originally cast to play Dany on Game Of Thrones, and played her in the first pilot that was done (which later was re-done). I'm so glad they got rid of her. She's a good actress but isn't attractive at all, and doesn't fit the role
