TV: what have you been watching?

I think The Walking Dead may be the best drama thats currently airing/in production.

There, I said it.

Ohhhh youuuuu

Also, olympics on all the time when Im home, BBC coverage is fantastic. Michael Jordan is a truly great pundit/commentator.

The only suck is I'm working 12 hour days at the mo, so missing a lot. On the plus side, theyve installed great big TVs in all working areas for the duration of the olympics, so you kind of casually watch all day, albeit no sound.

Re: TV: what have you been watching?

finished watching first four seasons of breaking bad;the show is obv not as good as everyone says it is, but it is still plenty entertaining. All the family drama and skylar's character feel very forced, but the meth part of the story is very good. They also could have told the story at a much slower pace. I'd give it a B++

Eureka
Merlin

Just finished watching the Firefly series. Shame that it was cancelled, it is hilariously delightful.
