Yes, it is.

[Berober]

So yeah. Rick and Morty is pretty great.

[apsham]

Great. Another show to watch.

Thanks Benji.

[GoGo Yubari]

Just watched the Christmas episode of Trophy Wife. It's really really good. This show is good.

[TKz]

I have reached the introduction of Erin in my rewatch of The Office. I was not ready to fall in love again...

[Benji]

So yeah. Rick and Morty is pretty great.

I tried watching it and couldn't get past the first episode because Rick's constant screaming (in what I assumed was a failed attempt at zaniness) gave me a genuine headache. Does that get toned down?

[Your Mom]

I get it Chuck tv show the blonde girl walks around in her underwear a lot!

[MalaCloudy Black]

She does that a lot a lot over the seasons, but she's a total badass so all is forgiven.

Kind of. First half of the first episode is as rocky as the show has been. But Rick is supposed to be an alcoholic version of Doc Brown from Back to the Future, so you should expect certain things.

Just watched The Crossing episode of Person of Interest.

Everything was so well built to that ending and it was one of the most chilling scenes I've seen on television.

Ah good, I'll give it another shot tomorrow then.

Plus, areas of mis-characterization aside, they actually treat her like a person!

[Baddar]

The Trollied xmas special was good! No Katie or Kieron though.

[Walker]

I've still got 49 films in my "to watch" list for 2013. No way am I going to get through them all, even by Feb.

[Benji]

I'm not disappointed by that, they got their dull and predictable happy ending, glad to have them gone. Spoilers...

Sad to see Julie go, I'd rather have Gavin gone if they were going to finish that particular story, but I'm guessing most of the cast had two or three season contracts since most of them are going, so it's more likely a behind the scenes issue than actual stories.

[Berober]

Yeah Benji, if you get through the first episode, which has it's moments, the next two are really good.

[GoGo Yubari]

No Treme spoilers but oh my god, watching a David Simon musical montage is a great antidote for all the shitty Kurt Sutter musical montages I've had to fast forward through this year.

[Josh]

No spoilers from me either, but I'm both satisfied and miss it already.

[Johnny23]

So I'm a big sit-com guy and I've finally started watching 2 Broke Girls. And the two new shows that I really enjoy are The Crazy Ones and The Goldbergs(reminds me of my family). I'm also kind of disappointed by the lack of Christmas shows from Parks & Rec, New Girl, and such. I always look forward to the holiday themed episodes and they were sparce this year. It's like every show said eff it we're just going on break.

[Benji]

Pretty much what happens these days. I hate mid-season breaks.
