The season one finale of Friday Night Lights was terrific. Don't want to wait for next season to air on Sky Atlantic

[GoGo Yubari]

I'm only a couple episodes away from watching it. Very excited!

[Meacon Keaton]

It gets even better!

Season 4, episode 13 of The Wire....

BODIE!!!!!!

Such a sad episode all around.

At least Namond got a happy ending

The Wire, season 4 finale

Yeah I was pretty gutted at Bodie's death. One of my favourite characters.

Bodie was my favorite. I love his death, though, because it displayed the difference between Bodie and most others on the street; when Chris and Snoop came for anyone else in season 4, they just quietly accepted their deaths. Bodie, though, wasn't going to go out like that.

[Baddar]

Come on, Summ. It's common knowledge that Ben's taste in entertainment is terrible. He's right up there with JohnnyPerfect and Baddar.

Hey, there's plenty here that like True Blood!

Yeah, I did like that Bodie went out guns blazing and didn't just lie down and accept it. Still, though.

I have been given access to HBO Go. Society may never hear from me again.

Seriously, I'm gonna be all over this. Now I can catch up quickly on Newsroom, then I'll move on to either The Wire or GoT (depending on when GoT has another season.)

Plus, Deadwood, Curb, re-watching The Sopranos, SO MANY THINGS.

[livid]

Season 3 of GoT premieres March 31st, 2013 so if you're timing it for that, you're going to be waiting awhile.

[Josh]

The Wire it is.

[Josh]

The A.V. Club has posted an incredible interview with Nick Offerman. It's very much worth the read.

[C-MIL]

I am almost done with Wire season one. It is getting good.

[Damian WayLNKe]

Nick Offerman didn't get an emmy nomination. >_<

Edit: American Horror Story is up for miniseries/movie?

[GoGo Yubari]

I am going to ignore all the dumb shit and instead be happy that Community finally has at least one Emmy nomination, even if it's just a writing Emmy for "Remedial Chaos Theory."

Apparently Downton Abbey is the drama version of Modern Family.

[fr34k]

The Best Comedy category is horrible. The only shows that deserve to be there are Curb and Veep, maybe 30 Rock (haven't seen it). Modern Family wasn't good at all last season, Big Bang is a joke and Girls is alright but totally overhyped. I was hoping that at least Louie would make it, or Parks and Rec (obviously Community was not going to happen).

I'm not the biggest Big Bang Theory fan in the world, and it's certainly a bit shit a lot of the time, but I don't see how anything else could win it. Sure I'm not American so I probably can't judge adequately with the target audience, but it's bloody huge over here. Moreso than any other comedy on TV, except for maybe Friends >_>. So to me, it seems quite obvious that it'd be a favourite. 30 rock is pretty awesome, but it certainly doesn't have the audience that BBT does.
