  1. Just watched the pilot of Malibu Country. Seems like a variation on Reba's self-titled series, but with Lily Tomlin, no teenage pregnancy, and the idiot teenager being Reba's actual son. Still amusing, although if they keep doing the, "Lily Tomlin is a stoner! Laugh!" bit, I may get turned off.

    They do, also those are my same thoughts about the show.

  2. So, San Francisco is going to the Super Bowl.

    And that's the best catch of Julio Jonses' career.

    I certainly hope so.

    So the Atlanta Falcons finally get the monkey off their back and win a playoff game.

    Hats off to the Seattle Seahawks though for at least making it a game.

  3. Ben Affleck got robbed in both categories. He wasn't going to winner Best Actor because that is going to Daniel Day-Lewis but he at least deserved a nomination. Argo was a great movie and I'm going to be sad because its going to get shut out of the major categories.

    Here's predicting a Lincoln sweep in everything

    Yeah, Affleck getting snubbed is a joke.

    I'm with you in Lincoln sweeping everything hopefully they'll be some surprises though.

  4. Hank's the brother-in-law, right? I think I remember liking him the most, which isn't saying much.

    It's been about half a year since I stopped watching it, but I remember hating Walter White's family, and Jesse did some real shit that made me hate him too. It was especially after the I.F.T episode that I realized why I wasn't enjoying the show, and from the end of that season on I couldn't be bothered continuing the series.

    Skyler White is terrible, yes. I wish Walter would kill her.

  5. The thing that puts me off Breaking Bad is that I don't find any of the characters really likeable. There's not one of them I want to root for. That's what put me off getting the fourth season.

    You don't like Jesse?

    Or Mike?

    Really?

    What's wrong with Hank or Walt Jr.? Jesse and Mike have some likeable qualities, too. Yes, Walter White's a dick but not every one on that show is unlikeable.

  6. The only thing I fear about The Walking Dead after Season 3 is the new showrunner. The show has finally picked up after a slow start and a midocre Season 2 it would be a shame for it to go down the tubes thanks to the change in showrunners.

    I have a love/hate realtionship with Dexter as well. It seems to be the norm since Season 4 to start off each season promising and then for it turn to shit midway through.

  7. Yeah. One thing about that ...

    The newest trailer totally kills the suspense of that nine minutes, because it shows Spock base jumping off of a skyscraper on Earth. So we already know he survives.

    On the other hand, they hide a starship underwater, which is all kinds of awesome. Even though we already know how the sequence plays out, that's a cool visual. Oh, and Cumberbach's character talking about healing a dying girl around the same time Vulcan goes boom? Fun times.

    Yes because it isn't obvious that Spock wasn't going to die anyway, because IT'S SPOCK?

    And Cumerbach healing a dying girl vs the destruction of a planet are totally different things.

    Good one <_<

    Khan couldn't do that.

    :shifty:

    I was just saying it was in a similar time frame. And I was talking to some friends, and one of them mentioned Garth of Ix. That'd be an interesting one, especially seeing as Garth probably wasn't Kirk's childhood hero, what with James T. Kirk not giving two shits about Starfleet as a kid.

    Garth of Izar. Ix was Dune. Sorry, but this isa about Star Trek, and we have to be anal about such things.

    Anyway, that is possible, but I have my doubts.

    It's possible it could be Garth but I doubt it. My money is still on it being Gary Mitchell.

  8. I managed to grab a copy of Superior Spider-Man #1 from a... certain source. I read it, and it was what I was kind of expecting, being Octopuspidey acting like an arrogant jerk while claiming to be superior to Peter Parker in every way, but the last couple of pages? WOW. Loved them.

    Ock's doing battle with the new Sinister Six and he's absolutely slaughtering them. Only Boomerang remains, and he almost beats Boomer to death, when a ethereal arm grabs him. Peter Parker's still there! He's influencing Ock from his own subconscious and vows to get his body back!

    So, yeah, I'm really pumped up for this, for the eventual return of Peter Parker full-time.

    Doesn't surprise me they're already planting the seeds for a Parker return. As with every major change with a character it's never a long term thing. He'll be back in plently of time for the release of the next movie.

  9. The Late Show trilogy from Season 3 of Louie was fantastic, loved it. I especially love David Lynch's character and Louie's ode to David Lynch during the credits.

    Justified is a show I've been told I need to watch. I'll get around to it eventually.

    Sons of Anarchy is another show I've been told to watch. It's available on Netflix but I don't know if I wanna jump into it. There's a lot of episodes to watch to catch up.

    I like Dexter but the show's had it's peaks and valleys. Season 3 was very blah but Season 4 was great, Seasons 5 was crap, Season 6 fell apart and Season 7 was a mix.

    Top 6 predictions:

    6. Dexter

    5. Parks and Recreation

    4. Game of Thrones

    3. Community

    2. The Walking Dead

    1. Breaking Bad

  10. Online has been so much better this year. They changed alot of moves around from last year so they're not impossible to counter now. I went on a 10 match win streak the other night.

    You could actually get online to work? It kept crashing yesterday so I just shut off the game. Also, my game is glitched when it comes to playing ranked games online. My wins sometimes count as losses or don't count at all. They really need to release a patch.

  11. Feel good about top 3's order, and that these are the ten, unless I'm dumb and I've missed one of them already placing.

    1. Breaking Bad

    2. Community

    3. Walking Dead

    4. Game of Thrones

    5. Parks and Rec

    6. Dexter

    7. Mad Men

    8. Louie

    9. Justified

    10. Sons of Anarchy

    I'd agree with this for the most part but I think Dexter is lower than Louie and Mad Men so I'd put it 8.

  12. Finished Boardwalk Empire Season 3...

    First off - thank fuck they killed Billy. Something about that girl just really annoyed me. Her final scenes, however, were absolutely brilliant, and the final shot where you knew

    something was about to happen, but weren't sure what was a great piece of drama.

    Owen's death and the shovel death were really haunting,and a real testament to how sick Gyp truly was.

    Speaking of Gyp - his death was a massive anticlimax. So many ways he could and should have been killed, and instead he's just stabbed in the back by an ally on the beach? That should have been Gillian Darmody stabbing him or killing him at the very least. C'est la vie, a small issue in a fantastic season.

    Loving seeing Al slowly rise in power. Can't help but feel that the end of the show is basically going to revolve around him.

    Yeah, for being such a massive asshole, Gyp's death is probably the only dissappointing thing about Season 3.

    I loved when Richard comes back to the brothel and just takes out Rosetti's entire crew.

    Also, one my favorite parts is when Eli comes back from Chicago with Al Capone. I love Capone's reveal when he says, ""We been on the road for 18 hours... I need a bath, some chow... and then you and me sit down, and we talk about who dies,eh?"'.

  13. I recently started watching Archer on Netflix and while I like it I don't seem to make me laugh as much as I guess I should? I've finished Seasons 1 and 2 and I'm just waiting for them to add Season 3.

    Boardwalk Empire, as been said, is a show that starts out slow but really picks up in Season 2. Season 3 was fantastic, and it's one of my favorite shows on TV now.

    How I Met Your Mother has definitely dipped in quality over the years but I've been invested in the show for so long I'm not going to drop it. It just annoys me that they're holding out on him meeting the mother till the end. I still love Barney Stinson though.

    It Always Sunny is a great show, yes the last few seasons were really lacking in quality but this season was a return to form. I especially love the Halloween episode with the McPoyles.

    As far as Big Bang Theory is concerned, I hate everything that Chuck Lorre does.

    Also, since I haven't seen it yet, I'm guessing Hell on Wheels made the Top 10.

  14. Boardwalk Empire season 3...

    ... two episodes in and Gyp fucking terrifies me. Never know how he will react. Tremendously written character.

    You're in for a lot of fun.

    Yes, this show has really started to pick up steam IMO. It started out kind of slow for me but Season 2 was good and Season 3 was even better. Gyp Rosetti is a great character.
