Interesting article on pokernews that talks all about the show:

http://www.pokernews.com/news/2014/0...nnel-19183.htm

But to answer your question, they only made this pilot episode in NOLA and could get a full season if they receive good ratings tonight. So I guess glgl to Antonio and Phil.

Google 'bestpoker[filteredwordbeginning witht]', if it still exists then perhaps they'll end up there.

Warner Bros. TV Preps ‘Longmire’ Pitch To Digital & Cable Outlets

"Ad-supported networks depend heavily on advertisers, who are after younger audiences, practically dooming popular series like Longmire or NBC’s Harry’s Law whose viewership is a little greyer."

Not sure if anyone else watches Taxi Brooklyn, but it's been a very easy season so far. 1 ep left, I assume, period.

It's been fairly light hearted until last night. That **** got a straight up Sons Of Anarchy style crazy ass ending.

The Honourable Woman doesn't have its own thread? Such a great show. Very much a show that should be binged so that you don't forget anything between episodes.

6 eps? It's on my short list, but I have to get through Happy Valley first, and I haven't been able to start it yet.

Your taste is known to be questionable at best.

Honourable Woman is well made, but I found its politics somewhat objectionable.

I like it but if you don't know the basis of the plot you're probably completely lost lol. Also that child actors performance is stellar.

Anyone watching "The Chair" on Starz?

I love all things behind the scenes of movies and tv so I'm hooked, but man... talk about 2 unlikable leads. The guy Shane, is for lack of a better word, a total bitch, and the woman, Anna seems like she can turn into one at any second.

the trailers for each of their movies are on youtube and they naturally both look awful, but I still want to see how they got to that point.

I absolutely love the idea behind "The Chair" but I'm waiting until it's done better and smarter.

Anyone else check out "Forever" yet? It Premieres 9/22/14 but its on ABC website now. Seems decent but not sure yet, need a few more episodes. Probably will survive the early axe.

It's just footage from his early 2000s American show, but Ali G Resurrection on FXX holds up. To me it's a better format for his characters (especially Ali G himself, who I think is the best of the three) than the full-length movies.

the ridiculous wannabe sherlock/mentalist deduction crap in this show made me want to punch whoever wrote it in the face.

Is anyone watching Legends? I'm surprised it's not got its own thread. I've just watched the first 3 episodes. I wasn't massively concentrating on it but it seemed pretty good. I really like Sean Bean and the whole 'not knowing who he really is' thing seems interesting.
