TV

I haven't finished season one yet. I'm 14 chapters in and am totally addicted. Between this and Halo 3 every muscle in my body with be atrophied by next month. So did anybody catch the season 2 premier yesterday? With out spoiling anything how do you like how the season is starting out?

Tomorrow night (here in Nor Cal) KQED will air an Independent Lens that looks like it should be killer. Check out the trailer. http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/tv-schedule/

Just started watching season 1 of The Americans on amazon prime video and I have to say I'm impressed. Great acting and a really unique premise for a TV show.

I really loved this show but I was kinda glad that they didn't drag in out till they ran out of decent ideas. But, comcast is showing all the episodes on demand and I'm starting to watch the whole shebang over again. I have to admit that I'm shocked that the much hated comcast is doing something that I like.

I thought it might be nice to hear what others have discovered on Netflix. I myself found a cute movie the other night called Chasing Ghosts.

I'm surprised we don't have this in the first TV subforum page. I finished yesterday the first and only season (so far) of "Mare of Easttown" on HBO. I really liked it, very well acted, Kate Winslet did a fantastic job.

I am really looking forward to this show starting on Sunday. I downloaded the sneak peak on iTunes and it looks pretty good. A Zombie TV show could be a lot of fun.

I'm really enjoying this History Channel short series. Watched installment #2 last night and have learned a lot I did not know.

I happened upon Letterkenny about a year ago and it's been great. Anyone have any recommendations for other good sitcoms? Not necessarily in the same vein. Other stuff I have seen and like: Seinfeld, first few seasons of That '70s show, The Office (US) before Michael Scott left, Parks and Rec, Arrested Development (not including the Netflix season). Sitcoms I hate: Big Bang Theory, 30 Rock, Two and a Half Men, anything with a horrendously fake laugh track

Considering the US Season 3 premier is 5 minutes away, I figured it was time to start this thread. I adore the UK version. I adore the US version. "Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate, so he's really not a part of our family. Also, he's divorced, so he's really not a part of his family."

I've been a fan of Louie CK for quite some time. Even his failed TV Series of a similar name to the current FX show now titled "Louie". The latest Episode #2 of Season 4 was simply brilliant. The most hysterically uncomfortable show ever.

I really get off on this, I'll be watching a show and it'll hit me right in the face that an actor/actress I will remember from another show ~ usually it's the more low-key actors that really get me going. Anyone else get like this or do I have serious problems? Examples: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 1 Episode 1: Apparently Julie Benz, the super smokin' hot actress that plays Rita from Dexter was originally in Buffy! She is totally not even memorable in the first episode. X-Files Season 5 Episode 9: Guest stars Jesse (Chad Lindberg) from the first Fast and Furious movie, he's ultra young and still ultra lame! "It's all right. I ain't losin'. This fool is ru…

This one looks fairly promising. Enough violence and T&A to keep the drama from getting too thick.

Love this show, and season 3 has been excellent so far.

A co-worker mentioned that he had just started watching a new series on Showtime "Shameless" starring William H. Macy. This is a US adaptation of a long running UK Series. UK : Shameless - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia UK : Shameless - Channel 4 US : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shameless_(U.S._TV_series) US: Watch Shameless on Showtime New Ideas? Who Needs 'em

Was wondering if any of you guys watch this show. I think it's hilarious.

So how was The Unit? David Mamet's Master Class Memo to the Writers of The Unit | Movieline

English tv show. Written by Stephen Moffat. Very fast, witty dialogue. Very House - Wilson, Holmes - Watson type humor which I quite enjoy. Just started season 1 but am sad to find out it only has 4 episodes =/ Anyone else watch it?

This second season of the limited series is about the Atlanta Olympic bombing and Richard Jewell. And while it pretty much mirrors the movie as far as Jewell is concerned, it's a much more in depth assessment of the events. It's prime focus is on the real bomber, who eluded justice for several years. It also casts one of my favorite actors from Boardwalk Empire, along with a quite good role from Judith Light ( and she didn't even cry in this one ). Recommended ( what else do you have to do anyway )?

I watched the first episode, and I think this one may turn out to be pretty good.

I just watched the season premiere of CSI NY and I believe "A Fine Frenzy" performed and played a part in the show. It was pretty neat. Her character was involved in the case they were working on.

In case anyone else's mind recently went from Gilligan's Island's sexuality to The Addams Family, you may enjoy the below historical ping-pong of the two monster families. I thought one was a copycat of the other, but it's more complicated. https://decider.com/2019/10/14/addams-family-vs-the-munsters-which-came-first/

The celebration will be held at the JFK Center in DC and NPR will provide a live web cast. Should be very cool! http://www.npr.org/event/music/310772594/live-sunday-blue-note-at-75-the-concert

I've only seen a few of these PBS shows but once you start, you can't take your eyes away. So far, I've seen part of the steam yacht, the Lysander airplane, and just a bit of the Ahrens Fox fire engine and I'd be hard pressed to say which one I enjoyed the best. Here's a link to their home page; http://www.ultimaterestorations.com/

Just discovered The Fosters on Netflix. It's an NBC series I think. Some overdone drama, and a little predictable here and there, but underneath is a pretty poignant, more realistic modern family. Not that I have any complaints about the very funny Modern Family series. This series is about two lesbian partners who were raising the Son of a previous marriage to one, then added two adopted twins that needed a home. The series starts with the current temporary fostering of a "high risk" teen. The series deals with several issues, with a heavy underlying theme of modern gay life. It's touching and smart in parts, but it's almost like the writers are being bullied into th…
