I'm surprised there's not more love for this. I had never heard of it before Directv started running it in Jan. I watched all 3 seasons the last 6 months.

Some of the plot threads are unrealistic (i.e. S3 - Tom walking home instead of calling 911 after being stabbed multiple times; Michael timing the full speed T-bone Patty's car at a NYC intersection), but I liked it a lot.

It makes my top 10 all time. (Deadwood and The Wire are my top 2)

Looking forward to Season 4

First few eps of Season 4 are out. Just finished the first one, the feel is a bit different but still pretty good. Can't wait for John Goodman to go up against Glenn Close 1 on 1.

Is Rose Byrne still in this or is she too hot for a DirecTV-only show?

Watched 2nd and 3rd eps, both really good. Seems like they've cut down on the insanity (a bit) and the show is much better for it. Also holding out hope for Rose Byrne to show some skin since it's not on FX any more.

last episode was good. I like how this show always has great secondary characters.

yeah last two eps were really good, but I wish they hadn't foreshadowed so hard what was going to happen

Glenn Close just destroys every scene, pretty incredible

yeah, they telegraphed that pretty hard though IMO (though the suitcase was kinda awesome in a perverted way I suppose)

wtf at the end of the episode with the supposed Patty/Ellen showdown though, they've done that EVERY season and if it just pops up out of nowhere again I will be pretty annoyed. I love Rose Byrne and think she's super hot but the show would probably be better at this point if she stopped taking up screen time that could be used to watch Glenn Close crush souls.

ending was better than I thought it'd be, nice twist as always (but not too crazy like the previous two seasons)

really a shame more people don't watch this, especially since this season had just amazing acting and finally non-horrible writing

This was a very good season imo. I'd def watch a show of just patty crushing people in court though. Actually did not see that twist coming, and did not think boorman(?)

Wasn't wild about Season 4 at all, but this season is a big step up so far.

I think I am gonna skip S4 and start watching S5 since most everyone thinks S4 is bad.

s4 and s5 are somewhat connected so you may want to watch both.

I thought s4 was much better than 2 & 3 which I was really down on after season 1 which is pretty much perfect.

Still can only watch if you have Direct TV? Missed S4 because of this.

i just wanna say that i see a lot of posters acting all feministy in the newsroom thread. but why won't the women's avengers watch a show about two strong women relying on their wits in a tense, suspenseful contest?

damages is killing it.

omfg this ep was fantastic! i love the way they're setting up ellen as totally ****ed and then, just when she's winning, she dies. this is a sweet plan for the season.

although if she survives that fall, i'd feel really betrayed

patty had walling killed. walling wouldn't sue so patty killed her and easily convinced the daughter to pursue a shaky wrongful death suit. the dude who did it is the same as the one who killed the hacker
