Now, this show might be a little uneven at times, but it's really ballsy to take your main character and move him to mexico and basically forget about all the other characters.
A move I thought was also ballsy in Mad Men where most of the cast departed to form Cooper Sterling Draper Price...a move that has set up for some awesome TV this year.

didn't jon voight die this past summer? How is he in some new tv show? Who was it that famously died recently?
That I will not watch.
Racist.
You know in all the years I've been here I've never been sigged?
I missed The Event but I'm considering watching it online. After I watch Jersey Shore. And don't judge me, fuck off if you can't understand!
That I will not watch.
Racist.
I just finished saying I'd watch the remake of The Jeffersons but not Tyler Perry's version. I have standards.

Speaking of racist, did anyone catch Outsourced?
I think the only thing Outsourced had going for it was the way it reflects the things we Americans take for granted. I'll give it one more episode, then shan't waste the DVR space.
I was very happy to see that Community is still sharp as ever. Who'd a thunk; it seemed a pretty stupid idea at first. But all meta and self-referential media stuff makes me grin.
oh shit! Eastbound & Down premiere on tonight! I almost forgot about it!!
Any "Dexter" fans?? Just watched the new episode...holy fuck!!!

Dammit! I missed it.
Yay! KENNY FUCKING POWERS IS BACK!
When he called that mexican guy the "sax player from the Lost Boys", that killed me.

... or that "motivational novel" that he's writing.
Tenth Inning starts tonight on PBS. I can't wait!
Six episodes into the new season, Weeds is finally getting good again.
watched the second episode of that Event. Strike Two. I've taken to just starting to refer to it as Fractured Fairy Tales.
I still got to get around to watching the Fringe and Eastbound&Down shows though. Maybe they can wash this horrible taste out of my eyes.
Eastbound & Down was great. I wasn't too sure about it given that they're basically uprooting everything and moving it to Mexico, but it turned out to be an awesome premier.
Deep Roy kicks ass as the side kick.
I was glad to see him get rid of those stupid cornrows and get back to the stupid mullet.
I'm just glad that The Office is back on.
Dexter was good as well. There's too much tv on right now.
I thought Dexter was good, too. That one cop is like the new Doaks, only way better looking and not so high strung.
He looks weird so skinny though, he should bulk back up.
Yeah, true. Who is that guy, anyway? I should look him up. He looks so familiar....
I thought it was good as well. Seeing as Rita was in this episode, I wonder if she will start popping up on Dexter like hsi Dad did, since she was as big as an influence as Harry was. I know the chick who plays her is on some new sitcom, but it would be interesting if she did.
It's Anthony Michael Hall!
I don't recognize any of the shows he was in, i never watched them. Beats me. He does look familiar though.
When he called that mexican guy the "sax player from the Lost Boys", that killed me.
Uh it was actually Los Lonely Boys but yeah. Kenny Powers is back. You notice the Pygmie guy is the guy from the latest Willy Wonka?

No. We were talking about one of the cops.

"sax player from the Lost Boys" was what Kenny called him, making fun of him.
Holy Cow This was great! The only thing I wwanted them to follow more was drawing that line between Bonds and Griffey as each of them rose throughout the 90's. They touched on it for about a minute, but still. If you're any kind of even moderate baseball fan get thee hence to the torrents!
I wanted to watch that last night but I had a softballgame. I hope the show is On Demand.
Who Dexter (Michael C Hall)? He has Cancer.
No. We were talking about one of the cops.
Hall looked fine, and i think he beat the cancer. Quinn is the skinny one, like he's on one of those retarded hollywood diets or drugs or something. Anyway, he's still a cool character, much better than Doakes.
If Always Sunny doesn't pick it up a notch, The League is going to quietly pass them for funniest show on tv.
Sorry if I ruin this for you if you haven't seen it. But no matter how many times I see this, pardon the pun, it blows my mind:

I found out we have this Slueth channel a couple weeks ago. Not sure exactly why it's called Slueth. About the only thing it is, is a USA Channel part 2, with a bunch of Monk and Burn Notice marathons. You'd think it'd be a bunch of Sherlock Holmes stuff but no. Anyways, I like it because they also do a bunch of House marathons and right now they're running The Prestige! Hot damn what a great movie to catch again here a few years later. I just realized I never got this thing on dvd. I need to go get it for blu-ray now!
I've watched the first 5 seasons of How I met your mother this past week. I really want to know how Ted does actually meet their mother, but I doubt it'll actually happen.
I started downloading several seasons of the Penn & Teller - Bullshit series. I'm digging it.
The sax player from Lost Boys:
Aaaand, animated:
This is why we can't have nice things.
the first 2 seasons are pretty good, after that they start really dredging the bottom of the barrel for things to debunk.
Did any of you british people watch that Dead Set show?
it's premiering here tonight, i got it set to record. but after watching that Walking Dead, I can't see it even being close to good. I'll settle for if it's just okay though.
I watched it online a few months ago. For what it was, it wasn't bad. I was expecting much worse. When a character is getting their guts munched on while still alive, and telling the zombies to "eat my shit" you know you're in for semi-good times. RIght?

oh man, that first episode was pretty bad. Is it better if you've ever seen one episode of Big Brother to "get" things? And what's up with zombie apocalypse killing a thousand people but in the morning, there's only like 10 corpses left. Even in the building, there's only 3 that I counted. And do the brits love running zombies or something? Like they invented them with 28 days later and now running zombies are their thing?
Death is not a super power!!
I wish you posted more.
There is hope, but not for us.
Watching my Tales From the Crypt DVDs. That show still kicks ass. My favs include:
-Demi Moore marrying a fat disgusting Jeffrey Tambor
-Joe Pesci banging/marrying twins who share everything
-Bill Sadler still executing murderers after the abolishment of the death penalty
-The Santa Claus ax murderer
-Joey Pants getting 9 lives or was it 8?

Running zombies are nothing, bla. Parkour zombies are the next thing, see Devil's Playground... if you must.
I liked Dead Set, excellent series and satisfying if you can't stand the actual Big Brother show like me.
The Walking Dead hasn't started here yet, looks all right.
We saw a few of the first episodes of Mad Men. We are not convinced so far. It is static and rather pointless apart from the supposed shocking effect (how they treat women, how the smoke all the time, etc). It might have to do with the german dubbing, but we don't see what the fuss is all about.

Do you got the one for Yellow? I think that's my all time favoritest one.
Bill Sadler was in like 3 or 4 of those shows. All were great. Speaking of which, I just downloaded Tales From The Crypt Demon Knight with, guess who? BILL FUCKIN SADLER that's who!

have you seen any shows of Big Brother though? Is it that big a deal there when someone gets voted out? Even still? Hasn't that show been around for like 10 years now? Also, they replace roommates when they're voted out? How does the show ever end if they keep replacing people?
I've never seen that show either, it always looked to me like that was supposed to be the only thing about it, was the whole 60's thing. How long before they start redoing Dynasty? "Look how weird they dressed and behaved during the 80's!!"
also, I keep getting it confused with Breaking Bad, mostly because they rhyme. But then I remember that Breaking Bad is the one that looks like Scrabble tiles in the title but is really periodic table squares.
And also that it's the one that I actually want to see but keep missing for various and lame reasons.
i'd watch it if he did it, but not if he puts his name in the title like that.
also, Tyler Perry as Weezy Jefferson!
