Did the board crash?

[Summers]

no.

[Cymbols]

Vegas has been cancelled Real shame that, the last episode in particular was really good.

[LL!]

God, Vegas was so boring. I can't believe I sat through 4 entire episodes before giving up.

[Benji]

I couldn't even manage one.

[GoGo Yubari]

Yeah, halfway through the first episode I was just like "life's too short."

[LL!]

I actually watched those 4 episodes cause I was stockpiling them and putting them off, then my mom needed emergency eye surgery and I ran out of things to watch while waiting. So, thus, came Vegas.

[Walker]

I remember watching the first episode of Vegas and thinking, "Yeah, this could be interesting."

Then I watched the second and was thinking, "Nope."

I am glad we are winding down the season. Just Hannibal, Mad Men and Veep to finish up on, so I'll have a lot of time to watch shows I haven't seen yet. Before I do though, is Da Vinci's Demons worth watching at all? I'll download the whole season and marathon it if so, watch something better if not.

[Benji]

Yeah, I've seriously notice that it's coming into the summer lull, which is great for my catch up watching. Five of my shows have finished or will finish in the last/next week.

[GoGo Yubari]

Yeah. I'm half an episode away from having successfully caught up on Elementary now, and after that I'll start catching up on Hannibal again. Summer!

[LL!]

Summer!

Shows that ended that I will be watching:

Friday Night Lights

The Wire

The last season of 30 Rock

Returning shows I will be watching:

Dexter

New shows I wil tune in for:

Ray Donovan

Graceland

I'm probably missing something.

[Ant]

If the pilot is anything to go by, Graceland is going to be one of those shows that just won't go anywhere.

[LL!]

Ehhh USA is full of popcorn television, though I only watch Psych and (except for the last few seasons) Burn Notice. Graceland looks like it could be some mindless television drama of the good kind.

[Jimmy]

anyone watched The Returned, the french drama now showing on Channel 4? Read an article in the metro a while back hyping it. Worth checking out?

Not really sure what Ant means by "going nowhere", though, because the pilot for Graceland was really solid and sets up an interesting dynamic between the two leads. It's not really a popcorn show, though.

It appears that I need to remind everybody to watch Suits again because that's coming back next month and it's not getting nearly enough love here. It's nowhere close to being a popcorn show, either.

[Ant]

I meant from the pilot to Graceland the show was kind of bland. Maybe its just me and it needs a few episodes to find its feet or something.

I concur. Suits is fantastic.

Finished the first season of Archer the other day. Really, really liked it. My only complaint is, and I dunno how to phrase it, I don't find shows that overly funny that always over rely on someone's stupidity causing all the problems in like every episode. Or, I don't love that aspect of it. But it's not really a big deal because, most of the time, Archer's hilarious and it makes me happy.

[Summers]

watching Castle. a woman is dead. her husband is played by the guy who stalked and attacked Peyton in One Tree Hill.. he did it, Castle. end the fucking episode. case closed.

[Summers]

holy shit, what the fuck is this. the model who took the dead's girl place is the nanny who kidnapped Nathan & Haley's kid and tried to kill Dan/Haley in one tree hill! CASTLE, BRO. arrest her too! they did it together.
