Of course they're not the same level, but why only watch 3 seasons of a 5 season show? It doesn't fall off a cliff like Dexter or something. Even at Chuck's worst, it was still fun to watch. And Sarah is worth watching all the time.

Haha, Dexter is exactly what I considered comparing it to!

My walking dead watching plan:

Step 1: Watch pilot.
Step 2: Done.

It's mildly entertaining. Probably watch if you have nothing else to do.

chuck is awesome, my lil brothers never seen it so im re-watching it with him now. weve cruised thru the 1st 2 seasons. i actually think s4>s5, i really really disliked the end of s5 and thought that plot was really unnecessary. last 5 minutes of the show are excellent of course.

What should be my next show between(?):
Deadwood
The Walking Dead
Chuck

if you watched the walking dead and then chuck and then died in a lawnmower accident involving your penis and untied shoe laces the biggest travesty of the whole bloody ordeal would be that you watched chuck and the walking dead before deadwood. the second biggest travesty would be that you watched more than the first three episodes of the walking dead unless forced to at gunpoint by a masked anal rapist.

lolol Deadwood it is. I wonder what Timothy Olyphant thought when he was approached about being a marshal again for Justified? Another great show btw, y'all should check it out if you haven't seen it.

Not sure his name, but there's a slightly overweight guy who has been on the show multiple times to help revamp the menu and organize the kitchen.

I'll throw a shout out to The Booth at the End. It's good and short and has the small time theater feel to it. It's one set with two or more actors just doing their parts. It's too bad more short features like it don't showcase the talent of some actors.

Hopefully they'll make this season of Alphas epic, because I just can't see a way for it to get to a third season. It was barely renewed last year, with ratings that were quite a bit better than what we're seeing now. The 8pm slot ended up being even worse than its usual lowly rated 10pm slot.

But I doubt they got the luxury of changing the last ep for either scenario not being what they figured.

That ended.... oddly. By the end, I couldn't see wanting to spend much more time with these people, aside from Carla, who's an all time favorite of mine.

If you enjoy insult comedy, Jeff Ross is doing great on "The Burn"

You can tell it's chopped together, and the audience track is poor, but at the end of show 2 Gilbert Gottfried did a bit that was so funny and so filthy I felt physically ill.

you could actually

Watch pilot
Watch last 3 eps of S2

the rest of the stuff is just dead weight, but the last 3 eps were solid

i made it 10 minutes into 'here comes honey boo boo child', it's more entertaining than toddlers and tiaras.

That's not something anyone should know or even have an opinion about.
