Television General Discussion

No thread for Gotham? I am watching it and find it pretty good, especially the first half of the season. Penguin is played very well.

Stupid supernatural moving back to the wednesday slot. Fuck you bitch. Tuesdays was flash and supernatural, and wednesdays arrow and, shit i forgot. Wednesday too stacked now. I think its supernatural, arrow, always sunny, workaholics, and empire. What the shit storm

its veronica mars without getting dark. which is boring to me. one of the reasons mars was so good is it felt like a modern day film noir show. but basically dumbing it down/lightening the tone ruins any interest in zombie for me.

So i started w/ Flash last night…I watch the 1st episode & seem so weird, like it was ffw to scenes…Like when did he meet Green Arrow. Watch 2nd episode seem to slow down a bit…But really not feeling the show at all. My wife likes it & the kids can watch with us but i dont know seem meh to me…

I watch the first 3 episodes of Blacklist another meh show for me, so i stopped watching…

Im thinking of watching The Wire. I always got turned off by this because it wasn’t in HD…HBO finally upgraded so ill check this out.

The Flash was a Spinoff of the Arrow. He got introduced over there. They play off of each other for a bit so you’re going to miss out on a bit if you follow one but not the other.

After 15 episodes of The Flash I’d say stick with it. They are dropping bombs most shows wouldve milked for seasons.

Yeah, I didn’t think they’d get into time travel in the first season.

It’s funny when a character repeatedly gets shit on in a show… I was watching an after-show about Vampire Diaries, and suddenly I remembered a character I’ve forgotten about— Tyler. Sheeeit, talk about a fall from grace… this dude was a hybrid vamp/wolf for a few seasons (in the general rankings–hybrids are basically 2nd tier, right behind ā€œthe original familyā€ Mikaelsons)… then Klaus killed his army of hybrids quite some time ago… then Klaus killed his mother… THEN this same dude BONEDā„¢ his girlfriend Caroline! Let that sink in for a minute— you’ve got this hot ass girlfriend… then another guy comes in and bangs her… but it’s not just any guy… in addition to it being the main dude he has hated for a long time… this is also the same dude that murdered his mother. (*Mrs. Lockwood was quite the gorgeous cougar/MILF, btw) Naturally he was pissed off to the highest point of pisstivity about this incredible moment of betrayal.

…he then showed up on Originals, trying to start shit up with Klaus… and got embarrassed and sent home with the quickness, capped off with Klaus even saying to him ā€œYOU’RE NOTHING TO ME.ā€ā€¦this dude got that Wesker treatment, man. So, there he was back in Vampire Diaries-land…he eventually loses his hybrid status, reverting to being a regular ol’ PRE-CURSE-ACTIVATION werewolf. The only upside to it is that you don’t go through the painful transformation each full moon. Lately he’s been just a sideline character that gets it on with that gemini-clan witch with the curly blonde hair. Funny thing is that she has been a more important character than he is for just about all of this current season. This is terrible. This dude is SO Yamcha-status, man.

EDIT/ALERT Redhead fans– BAUER’s old flame, the delicious Annie Wersching is on the show now as Lily Salvatore, the mother of Damon and Stefan.


Clarkson officially fired and it seems that the other two aren’t gonna continue without him. There goes what was probably the greatest non-fiction TV show of the past 14 years. RIP Top Gear.

So that’s what Proctor is planning…

Mad Men is back

lol at that bit at the end with Ken becoming their new client

Season II

@Million
Anything to comment on from the new season of DWTS?

who else hate agents of shield now?

I don’t even know wtf is going on anymore. whatever…

Action is pretty solid but I really don’t care for Sky anymore, everyone is treating her as the damsel in distress but she has great powers gets boring fast. The show is veering into that teen soap drama area. Yuk.

Agent Carter is more engrossing for me. DareDevil is a whole other level, you need to be watching that if you aren’t already, some of these goons he is up against could take on Nolan’s Batman and CW’s Arrow at the same time lol, dudes know how to fight.

I usually wait for things to pop in Netflix nowadays. Can’t stand waiting for next week/season for next eps etc. Last one I binged on was ā€˜Copper’- first few season was good. I’m contemplating on which tv show to watch next. I have these in my queue:

-Luther
-The Killing
-Damages
-Star Trek Voyager
-Battle Star Galactica(80s version)

Also, anyone checked out Powers?

Powers isn’t anything special, type of show you’d leave on and watch if there was nothing else on.

Eliza Dushku is coming to Banshee…

I didn’t read the comics, but is walker supposed to be an asshole who is desperate to get his powers back?

Yes and no, people with powers are the celebrities of the world. He basically lost his powers in an incident (avoiding spoilers), he has had to make a living like a normal person so he is less douchey than he used to be when he was young.
