the wire - whatever

breaking bad - meh

true detective - boring

CHASING LIFE ON ABCFAMILY!!!

That picture of her in glasses is killing me!!!!!

Didn't really like Tyrant at all, but I'll give it one more episode since the "show" kind of starts there rather then the exposition filled pilot. I'm sure that'll be it for me.

I have zero clue what chasing life is like but I want it to be cancelled asap. Just cos.

Thanks for the Fargo recommendation guys, watched the first two eps last night and it was fantastic.

only gets better.

Fargo is pretty fantastic. Question tho:



Also, Girl Meets World started tonight.

There is a second season of Fargo coming. May be a completely new story like True Detective. But there will also be a big temptation to build on first season characters. No one knows at this point.

Taxi Brooklyn was decidedly meh. Wife didn't like it at all. Been a real upsurge the last few years in car chases - they were extremely rare on tv for a long time. Somebody must have figured out a way to film them much more cheaply?

This is correct however it hasn't been renewed yet.

Sonia Saraiya (AVClub) has great taste in TV and gave this show a B+. I was surprised by that and it was the only reason I watched it. She mentioned all of the obvious meh things it has in it, but still gave it that grade. I'd give a C'ish. I might watch 1 or 2 more, but that would be it. I don't see it getting even close to better.

Lol, I wonder how long they have been pitching this one to Cory and Topanga.

It was originally scheduled to air during last season of Arrow as a back door pilot so it has been done for a while.

Fwiw I saw the flash pilot over the weekend. It was decent, makes me want to see more.

The expansion of what is going on, how and why is decent. I think it was stronger than I had expected going into it.

I can't get over how bad the strategy is on Cutthroat Kitchen. The EV play is to gang up on one chef and knock him/her out. Last night, the first sabotage was forced to hold a phone to your ear during the cooking challenge. The 2nd was having to fold pizza boxes and stack them high enough to be your table before you start cooking. So the one guy wins the 1st sabotage and forces a competitor to use the phone. He again bids and wins on the pizza box sabotage. Does he nail the same guy and make it even harder for him? No, he gives it to the other chef to "even it out." He lucked out, the guy w/ the phone lost anyway. But it was a lot closer than it needed to be.

They also unnecessarily over bid on sabotages. Example: One chef has $5K left, the other has $12K left. Guy w/ $12K will bid $8K. It's so LOL bad.

i watched episode 2 of Last Ship. just terrible. not even lolterrible like the first episode. just plain bad boring waste of time

Sons of Anarchy - I'm going through this show now on Netflix.

Liked Season 1.

Season 2 was probably even better, the Zobelle storyline and how that effected all the different gangs was pretty good.

Season 3 though, I'm starting to lose interest. Things seem to be slowing down and the characters are getting dumber, though somehow still not facing any repurcussions.

For those that are caught up to present episodes, would you say the show has trended downwards over time, or does it rebound back up in quality?

Down down down. It does have the occasional moment that is pretty "WTFBBQ" but you gotta work for it. So glad the next season is the last.

later seasons are not great but i think 3 was the worst

Am I the only one watching Murder in the First? This is so well done and by Steven Bocho. Kathleen Robertson is just so hot to me.

I'll be catching up on it later this week. I was decidedly underwhelmed by the Pilot. If you want some more Kathleen, watch season 2 of Bates Motel. She looked a lot better on that show than this one. I think you'd probably like Bates Motel, too.

Hotter with the short hair

agree

Yea episode 2 was really lol. Good to know we will still be at war with Al Qaeda even after 80% of the planet is dead.

The comedy show Undateable has been showing 2 episodes a week since it started, does that mean the show is getting/got cancelled?
