I have heard nothing good about Allen Gregory and now it's dead anyway. You should really just watch something else.

[Benji]

It is? Oh awesome, straight off my watch list and over to Series 1 of Last of the Summer Wine!

[TKz]

I didn't realize Benji was 70 years old. >_>

[Benji]

I'm not, that's why I never got to watch the original series.

[TKz]

...well, hey, can't argue with that.

[Benji]

Chose to catch up on Sopranos instead. On season four, and everything has felt very samey for a while, hoping it picks up again soon, because initially this was an absolutely terrific piece of programming that seemed criminal I'd missed on first run. I've got hopes that seeing out this season will reward me, since Steve Buscemi is apparently in season five.

[GoGo Yubari]

I like season four. It's not really a "big things happen" season, though, aside from "Whoever Did This" which is a big one. Lots of shit goes down in season five, though.

[Benji]

Amusingly, that is the episode I'm watching, and what I've been waiting an eternity for just happened

[apsham]

I really didn't mind Allen Gregory. It wasn't horrible by any means - but yeah, nothing all that special.

[Steeb]

Man, 30 Rock is excellent. Why haven't I given this time before?!?!

[Ace]

OK, is it just me, or is Castle made purely to showcase Nathan Fillion's awesomeness?

I've acquired the first 3 seasons, and I'm upto episode 6 of Season 2. The entire 'Space Cowboy' bit followed by 'You haven't worn that costume in 5 years' was hilarious.

[Benji]

I remember blasting through the first season of Castle in one session, despite not enjoying it when I'd previously tried to watch it. It's basically the Nathan Fillion show, yes.

[Ruki]

I am conflicted....I love Nathan Fillion....but I am not a big fan of cop shows.

[GoGo Yubari]

So I've started keeping track on my preliminary list for this year's year-end list. It's always funny when the year starts and I haven't actually watched fifteen new shows, so shit like Work It is at 10th because I saw a single episode of it.

By the way, Work It is the single worst sitcom I've ever seen. If you like it, I will seriously think less of you as a person.

[Baddar]

I don't want American Horror Story to end. Did I mention how much I love Hayden?

Is that that shit that looks like an ill-advised Bosom Buddies revival?

[GoGo Yubari]

Yes. I'm trying to think of a television show I've watched before that's worse. It's... not really happening.

EDIT: And it looks to be already dead after two episodes. Thank fuck.

[TGC]

Poor poor poor actor who played Sucre on Prison Break

It was also apparently the first thing to get a 0 score on IGN since 1998.

[Baddar]

It turns out the second episode of New Girl was better than the first!
