The TV Show Thread

Hmm True Blood was alright, definately going downhill though. Far too much weird stuff like fairies, special powers etc.

I know that was the finale but if they added on another episode or two, they could finish the whole show off and I'd be happy.

That was the finale? Oh.... Why have a two week break before a final episode?

It didn't really feel like a finale it just seemed like every other episode in the series, OK, but ultimately a underwhelming. I thought the characters in Season 3 were good, but they didn't use them very well. A pretty uninspiring season.


Bring on Dexter and Fringe already, we need some decent shows back.

Does it get better? I've started season 1, about 3 eps in, but found it a little dull. Maybe it's the acting or maybe it's the dull characters in the story. I find the characters far too over-the-top with the macho-ness and try too hard to be cool. It also doesn't help that the lead character's US accent sucks and he sways from side to side in a Liam Gallagher way either.

It may be that I recognise a lot of the actors from other series and films and in other roles that are nothing like these roles, but for some reason it bores me.
 
I love it. Mid way through Season 2 atm..... I also hate the main roles voice. But im enjoying it.

Funny seeing this dude walk out of my local kebab houe with a Sons Of Anarchy hoody on the other day though haha.

Bloody hell, Tik! Where do you get time from to watch all of those?!

In saying that, they're not all starting soon as Breaking Bad isn't until July anyway.

30 shows a week, here's the new ones I'm interested in :

Hawaii Five-0

The Walking Dead

Eastbound and Down is coming back, after a 1.5 year gap. This is crazy.

We watched Breaking Bad S1 on hols - shame its only 7 episodes as it was totally awesome, absolutely loved it.

My missus was in pieces during Ep6 - never seen her that upset watching a TV show. Lots of it is very "LOL" though in places and very well done.

Are the other seasons the usual 20+ episodes?

Looking forward to S2 now.
 
Won't actually manage to keep up with them all, I've still got True Blood S3, Justified, The Gates, The Glades, Breaking Bad 1-3, Mad Men 1-4, etc still waiting. But I save them up for the winter/summer months when it all goes quiet. Still got last seasons House waiting to be watched, only remembered it after listing the new season. :D

The regulars will be Fringe, Grey's, CSI's, Criminal Minds, Mentalist, Modern Family, Bones and Castle. The rest will just be saved or fit in at some point.

Forgot about The Walking Dead (31st oct.), will add that to the list aswell.

I'm really struggling :(

Currently I'm up to:

Curb Your Enthusiasm S4
House S1
Dexter S1
Modern Family S1
Men Of A Certain Age
The Mentalist S1
Fringe S1
The Shield S2

And then there's shows like Roots (old show!), Eureka, Luther and Mad Men that I haven't even started yet :(

And now all of these new shows are coming out, as well as ones like Chuck coming back ... NOT ENOUGH TIME! :CRY:

And then there's movies to watch! Although I've noticed that tend to struggle watching movies now and lose attention. Whether that's because I'm used to watching 40min TV shows compared to 220min movies though ...

I used to watch 3-4 shows each week day last season, gave up on a few, like Glee :EMB: yea I watched it until the break.

From old school I'm watching X-Files very slowly and catching up with Mad Men and True Blood too

The problem is I don't wanna give up any of the good shows and wanna watch some new ones.

By the way JJ Abrams has a new one too, Undercovers, doesnt look that interesting tho.
 
At least I got :EMB: half way through. It was a promising funny show at the begining that turned into commercial crap.

I've seen The OC and some way worse teenage girly dramas 'because of a girlfriend' back in the day. :EMB::EMB:
Notice the '' in the reason :D cause The OC was pretty good. Yea I said it! That dont make me less latino gangsta.
 
I only watched The OC because my girlfriend did but it was alright. She watches Glee too and I tried a couple of episodes but aside from the odd funny one-liner it's just awful. It's High School Musical for people who think they're too cool for that. And they absolutely butcher the songs they cover.
 
That's another show I need to carry on watching. I think I got upto season 2 at some point.
