My wife watches New Girl. That show is really awful.

Not really sure what this means, but it seems like the opposite of what someone would say about Karak so

There's a few random terrible eps, and occasional bad beats within good ones- but when it's at it's best, New Girl can be great.

I want to take back my telling Chilltown to watch Justified. YOU DON'T DESERVE IT.

+1

people like to talk about/compare MM and BB cause they're both on AMC and well received, but i think it's a pretty good example of just how wildly different two really great shows can be.

mad men is definitely a real slow burn, but in terms of characters, writing/acting, and style, it's way up there.

Ah, it would have helped if you watched last week's Bob's Burgers. But basically I agree with your assessments.

Paul Phillips was a hell of a lot more interesting than DN and he got nuked as well (both cases somewhat correctly imo)

I don't know what caused DN's ban but Paul Phillips was awesome and IIRC Ma.son came across pretty poorly there.

wasn't there some SE legend with some mainstream notoriety who got into a spat with MM and left/banned?

some early ideas (just randos that have popped in my head, not sure i like any)

- free for all. draft whatever you want, be it all chicken products, burgers, or 10 different styles of fries.

- each participant is opening a ff franchise. they must have a set number of categories to fulfill (i.e. chicken, burger, side, mexican, pizza, whatever) could have there be like 3-4 sides which can be anything, even if it's not actually a side.

- think the beverage category could be interesting. could make each team select a certain number of soft drinks/specialty drinks that are actually found in ff restaurants. (coke freestyle machines obv be banned)

i dunno

My shaky recollection is that PP (while very awesome) was very much in the wrong. I can't recall specifics, but it remains notable to me only because I remember being sad that a guy I liked and was usually right about stuff was wrong. (and that a guy I wasn't wild about was right). But who knows, I was fat then.

Dan was pretty blatantly spamming after he'd been warned a few times.

I would assume you're thinking of Paul Phillips- can't think of anybody related to SE.

Unless you're thinking of when Clark got banned for being slightly unkind about Hal Lubarsky.

2p2 does seem to be run by total idiots. SE should break away.

How many episodes did you see?

It took a while for me to really get into it. Early on, its more a style thing, its interesting and whatnot, but then the characters stories really take off. I can see people not getting into it though, but once you do (or if I guess) its really good.
