Television General Discussion

AMC shows>>>>whatever shit you like.

Chuck series finale was this past Friday. The show started out great and ended…not so great. But I still stuck through. Even with all its flaws I still loved the show. I thought they would make a better series finale too. Although, I don’t think a lot of endings to stories. Maybe it’s because I don’t like finales regardless of how bad a show gets.

Watched HBO’s Luck last night…it was okay, drama about life at a horse racing track and it’s from the creator of Deadwood. Have a feeling it’s gonna be one of those critically adored, commercially ignored scenarios for this one though…

HBO might have some decent stuff coming. Life is Short with Warwick Davis looks promising, and Julia Louis Dreyfus’ new show Veep(she’s the Vice President) might be good, the Seinfeld alumni does well with HBO…

And of course, the final season of Eastbound and Down saga Feb 15th.:tup:
The epic return of Kenny Powers: The Man With the Golden Dick, Dr. Cock and Balls, the Bulletproof Tiger.:rofl:

This is my recommendation as well the onyl things you’ll be missing from the old series are inside jokes and wink winks, it’s not that big a deal.

Favorite New Shows of 2011:

All-American Muslim
New Girl
Falling Skies
Revenge
Franklin & Bash
Grimm

I’m sure I’m forgetting a few, but these were the standouts in my mind.

What confused you exactly?

I’m backlogging on some TV shows like: Spartacus, PBS show “Prohibition,” The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret and Justified.

Gonna checkout Touch since I’m a Social Worker haha. And I definitely can’t wait for GoT S2!!!

People recommend me Babylon 5,

I finished watching all of Breaking Bad, Mad Men, Parks & Rec (Best damn comedy show atm for me), Archer, Sunny, Homeland, Modern Family and Arrested Development.

How did I forget Homeland?! That show is pretty ridiculous. I was surprised Damian Lewis didn’t win anything for it, though he was nominated.

As for Alcatraz, still haven’t watched this week’s episode, but I’ve enjoyed it thus far. That warden is horrible, but he’s being horrible to some horrible characters so it’s hard to feel sorry for them - though I end up doing so, at least a little.

The only thing on TV I give a shit about is Boardwalk Empire.

Buscemi forever.

I like the warden haha, you need to be slightly evil if you are trying to keep ‘the worst criminals the US has ever seen.’ Giving the sniper a talky roomie was awesome. Whats the accepted grace period for spoiler tags?

pilot/2nd ep(?)

Spoiler

I want to know how main character’s grandfather was related to the disappearance, also wtf happened I’m thinking they got transported to hell and now they’re back, he seemed to know about it when he was talking to the main villain in whatever episode I’m thinking of

does anybody else watch Dr. Steve Brule???

Currently watching… Arrested Development. And LOVING it. :tup:

Good man. One of the few shows that you can watch over and over again laugh at the same jokes and find new jokes. :tup:

There’s a lot of stuff going on in that show. 4 Ep’s in and I already know I’ma be watching through it again. :tup:

On this week’s Battle of the Exes:

Ep.2 results

Spoiler

Power Couple: Vinny & Sarah
Elimination Round: Leroy & Naomi (last place) vs. Wes & Mandi (winner’s pick)
Winners: Leroy & Naomi
Eliminated: Wes & Mandi
Disqualified: Vinny & Sarah (nightclub incident in which Vinny ripped off Mandi’s shirt in public)

Some USA Network stuffs:

  • Psych returns on February 29.
  • Fairly Legal returns in March.

I hope the new Psych eps are good. These past eps have had like no story compared to earlier seasons. It’s just setting up jokes now. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was its last season.

New White Collar ep gave me mixed feelings. Kelly Kapowski is a nice milf, but I keep thinking of what she looked like in SBTB and I can’t help but smh.

Psych is gonna be great with all the new guest stars. Kinda wished they would get off the Shawn and Juliet angle. I liked it better when they were just flirting with each other.

Spoiler

I bet Lassiter is planning to fuck that shit up somehow though if he hasn’t already.

White Collar season promo had a misleading build-up.

Spoiler

The whole Elizabeth Burke scenario only lasted for one episode, and it wasn’t nearly as dramatic as they made it out to be.

I haven’t checked out Fairly Legal, but from what I could tell, it’s a show about Sarah Shahi’s booty in the courtroom. Is it any good or believable?..the show I mean.

I’m not too sure I like the angle they’re building up Mrs. Suit. I can understand her being strong personality, smart, and beautiful. But being so clever has a hostage…I don’t know. I think they made her too tough to be realistic. Standing up to the hostage people is one thing, but figuring how to break out is MacGyver-like. Too much of a stretch for me.

I like it. Mediation is an interesting subject and it’s a refreshing change of pace from the other legal shows out there.

Sarah Shahi is a nice bonus as well, lol.

Re. Person of Interest

They said the machine covers the whole of the US but why does it only give numbers of people in their city, is it also only looking for terrorists in the city too??
