Finished season 3 of Justified. Awesome.

"Oh shit! IT'S A PIGGY BANK!!!" is definitely the line reading of the year. After finding out it wasn't on youtube, I'm working on uploading it now.

Yeah that whole scene was fantastic.

Who/how many here would recommend checking out Community?

Do it, just prepare yourself as it started out kinda slowly (like, the pilot is probably the worst episode)

Black Mirror may be the most brilliant television series I've ever seen.

Sigz · « **Reply #356 on:** April 16, 2012, 12:30:16 PM »

Never heard of it, but I'm very interested based on the wiki article.

GuineaPig · « **Reply #357 on:** April 16, 2012, 12:55:06 PM »

I should note that it would be better to go in without much knowledge of it. It's pretty mind-blowing.

I went as long as I could without rewatching the DC animated universe shows. Couldn't stand it anymore, so started Batman TAS over again.

American Weed is an interesting show. It does a good job documenting the issues from all sides.

jcmistat · « **Reply #360 on:** April 18, 2012, 04:02:24 AM »

Watched the first 3 episodes of Farscape. Its got me intrigued enough to keep watching.

GuineaPig · « **Reply #361 on:** April 18, 2012, 05:12:23 PM »

Watched the pilot for Girls. Really excellent.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #362 on:** April 20, 2012, 02:45:53 AM »

I just started watched Transformers: Prime for the first time, and I love it. I've only watched Darkness Rising so far, but it already puts the new movies to shame in terms of dialogue, plot and consistency. I was just expecting another run of the mill CG kid's show.

GuineaPig · « **Reply #363 on:** April 20, 2012, 06:04:12 PM »

Started watching The Thick of It. Wonderful, wonderful stuff.

Looks like an interesting show. I think I will check out the first pilot. Question though, is it meant to be more of a comedy or more drama?

GuineaPig · « **Reply #365 on:** April 20, 2012, 07:24:58 PM »

It's definitely funny, and I laughed quite a bit, but it is not sitcommish. But it's not all the way to a dramedy, either. It's like the funnier episodes of Louie, if you've seen that.

Dammit, I love Fringe, and I don't think it will get renewed for another season.

So do I. I DVR'd last night's show. Can't wait to see it but I'm afraid like you it's not long for TV.

BlackInk · « **Reply #368 on:** April 21, 2012, 06:34:27 AM »

Are there any more Avatar: The Last Airbender or Legend of Korra fans on this forum?

Super Dude · « **Reply #369 on:** April 21, 2012, 07:15:07 AM »

Present and accounted for! I think Hef *maybe* but I won't speak for him.

Hell no, I don't watch that stuff. I'm too old. My kids watch it.

Which is why I won't speak for you.

Moi aussi!

Quite the twist this week. I just hope it's not like Jericho from a few years ago, where they leave a mother of a cliff-hanger, and then it gets cancelled. It's the only drama show I watch religiously.

GuineaPig · « **Reply #373 on:** April 22, 2012, 03:50:10 PM »

Veep, starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus and created by Armando Ianucci is premiering tonight. Given how awesome The Thick of It is, I am very excited for it.

The previews are just awesome. Man I love the dialogue just in the promo's. DVR is set.

It finally happened indeed: Mad Men finally has had someone on-screen under the influence of LSD.

New show from Kurt Sutter, definitely going to check it out.

Sutter's a grade-A asshole. I don't like him at all, and I'm not a fan of Sons of Anarchy either.

No one is to old for The Last Airbender. Or Legend of Korra.

It has been renewed for a final season, thought it will apparently be only 13 episodes. At least that will give the writers a chance to bring the storyline to a proper resolution.

Sigz · « **Reply #381 on:** April 30, 2012, 06:08:44 PM »

From what I understand JJ Abrams had intended the fifth season to be the last anyways, so it's cool that it'll get to see the resolution he wanted (at least in part, no sure if he intended only 13 episodes).

GuineaPig · « **Reply #382 on:** April 30, 2012, 07:02:07 PM »

I wonder whether JJ Abrams has much creative input on the show. I imagine most of his job is cashing cheques.

Didn't he bail on LOST after season 1?

Wasn't that because he was starting production on Mission Impossible 3 though?

I'm happy Fringe will get a proper ending! I need to catch up with this season, I've only seen the first 2 episodes.
