jlhoots Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 Deadwood - Season 2 Great series. BTW did anyone else see McShane as the demented Santa in this season's American Horror Story. Of course, Olyphant also returns in Justified in a couple of weeks. Quote
jazzbo Posted December 25, 2012 Report Posted December 25, 2012 Just ordered the Deadwood blu-ray set (was pretty well-priced on amazon); haven't seen it but always wanted to and had some Xmas money. I did see those "Bad Santa" episodes of American Horror Story: Asylum. That show is off the hook! Quote
Shawn Posted December 26, 2012 Report Posted December 26, 2012 Season 3 Just read that it has already been renewed for Season 4, good news because it's one of the more enjoyable genre shows on TV right now. Quote
Matthew Posted December 28, 2012 Report Posted December 28, 2012 Looney Tunes Golden Collection 1-6. Volume 1. Hilarious stuff! Volume 1, disk 2. The Best Of Daffy & Porky. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted December 28, 2012 Report Posted December 28, 2012 (edited) Good two part BBC thriller set in the present and the war years, based on a William Boyd novel: Edited December 28, 2012 by A Lark Ascending Quote
erwbol Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 Shameless - Season 1 Shameful in comparison to the UK original. Quote
Shawn Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Shameless - Season 1 Shameful in comparison to the UK original. Never seen the original (though I plan to eventually). Regardless of whether the show is a remake or not I think it's an excellent series with an impressive cast. I think the show does a marvelous job of capturing "life below the poverty line" and some of the "tricks" you have to use to survive in a country geared to operate for people with much more money than these characters have.

A Lark Ascending Posted January 6, 2013 Report Posted January 6, 2013 The return of the traditional British activity of spending Saturday night with a Scandinavian drama: First two episodes of Borgen series 2 - excellent. And you could play spot the actor you previously saw in The Killing. Quote
sidewinder Posted January 6, 2013 Report Posted January 6, 2013 The return of the traditional British activity of spending Saturday night with a Scandinavian drama: No 'Dad's Army' and Stanley Baxter then? Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted January 6, 2013 Report Posted January 6, 2013 The return of the traditional British activity of spending Saturday night with a Scandinavian drama: No 'Dad's Army' and Stanley Baxter then? Can't imagine many 60s-90s British Saturday night staples making it back for re-runs given current police investigations! Quote
ejp626 Posted January 6, 2013 Report Posted January 6, 2013 Still working our way through Get Smart -- up into Season 2 now. Still holds up pretty well, though every now and then Max seems too stupid to tie his own shoes. It's odd, because he isn't simply incompetent -- there are times he occasionally has some good insights. And he is braver than I remembered, though even there it [the writing] isn't entirely consistent. Am supplementing a bit with Futurama vol 7 (the episodes that aired last summer). There are another 13 or so coming this summer. Yea! I do wish Comedy Central would go ahead and renew for the 8th production series, but I suspect the writers are at least sketching a few things out in case it is renewed. Quote
kinuta Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 The Good Wife - tonight's episode It's a great show. I've been a fan since it began and I can't remember seeing a substandard episode. Quote
Michael Weiss Posted January 9, 2013 Report Posted January 9, 2013 New season of Justified started tonight. Best dialogue on TV, in that inimitable Elmore Leonard tradition. Quote

Shawn Posted January 9, 2013 Report Posted January 9, 2013 Breaking Bad - Season One Watched two episodes so far, I can definitely appreciate the artistry in the series...but I'm not sure if I actually like it. Haven't decided whether I will continue with it or not. Quote
Michael Weiss Posted January 9, 2013 Report Posted January 9, 2013 Breaking Bad is great. Stay with it. Quote
erwbol Posted January 9, 2013 Report Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) Breaking Bad season one will start going places soon enough. I had the same reaction on first viewing and actually stopped after two episodes. Then a year or two later I tried again. I now love the show. Some of the most memorable characters won't be introduced until next season or later. Edited January 9, 2013 by erwbol Quote
kinuta Posted January 9, 2013 Report Posted January 9, 2013 Breaking Bad is superb, don't give up after a few episodes, it really does take off into mouth watering storytelling . Quote
Matthew Posted January 10, 2013 Report Posted January 10, 2013 Duck Dynasty. The first time watching this, and I'm not sure if I should be happy or appalled with this show. Are there really people like this in the world? It seems like they're in a completely different world than the one I'm in. Quote
jeffcrom Posted January 10, 2013 Report Posted January 10, 2013 Frank's Place - Episode 20: "Cultural Exchange," with Dizzy Gillespie, Harold Land, Walter Davis, Jr., Al McKibbon, and Tootie Heath. Quote
