I love Lost, but I do wonder how much of the appeal is Lost by not watching it week to week. I guess if you haven't got much of an idea about what happens, you'll still be able to be caught up in the intrigue, but it just seems like some of that wonder might be... well, lost.

I actually found watching it bulk stopped seeing the apparent dip in quality.

Oh my God, that Boardwalk premiere was intense.

Where's Margaret, though?

[LL!]

Oh my goodness. True Detective looks like it's gonna be faaaaaaaantaaaaaaaaaastic.

Margaret's in New York since she and Nucky are splitsville and all. I assume we'll see her in the upcoming weeks but I'm glad they didn't try to shoehorn either her or Van Alden in.

Apparently it is twenty years today that the X Files appeared on TV.

I feel old.

The lady and I started Orange is the New Black. Terrific thus far.

Lewis was good in Season 1, but if the series continues looking like Season 2, I'd hope he doesn't win it again. I'll be very disappointed if he wins this year.

Lewis's submission episode was "Q&A" (as was the submission for Claire Danes), that is one of the best acted scenes between two characters ever in dramatic television. They are both going to win. Emmy voting is based on one episode, not the whole season.

I love Bradley Whitford, but anything not involving him in the Trophy Wife is very painful to watch, eugh.

It's just Trophy Wife. THIS IS NOT GOING TO BECOME THE NEW "THE NEW GIRL" ON MY WATCH

[EddieG]

Welcome to the family, and back in the game, much better than Trophy Wife.

Is The Trophy Wife any good? Malin Ackerman is gorgeous but I'm not sure that's enough to sell me on a show.

Oh, wow, The Newsroom pilot. Wow wow wow. Only sad thing about is that the episode title isn't "Vertigo Medicine".

I could watch Sam Waterson say 'Fuck' all day, though.

Also, first season of Girls was really good. Still not sure which guy Split likes, though. Ray?

[TKz]

Anyone else fail to realize that almost every show apparently comes back in one week in September? Jeez.

Unless you're on The CW, in which case every show comes back on one week in October.

So, apparently, The Killing has once again met with death.

"Hey! There you are! Who let you out of your cage?!" reportedly asked the Grim Reaper.

[Ant]

It might not be dead. Looking for another home apparently.

My guess is either Netflix or Comedy Central

He was awesome as Josh Lyman and I thought he was one of the few watchable parts of Studio 60

Na, Adam's the best. I can't remember what happens at what point in which season, but Adam's easily my favourite.
