TV

Just watched the first epispode of the new half hour Onion News Network show on IFC. Slightly different tone than I ever noticed on the website, as they've recast the network into something of an alternate universe where political correctness never happened and brutal honesty is the norm. Add in a mild dystopian vibe, such as the Network having access to cameras "watching over 80% of the world's population." Much more consistent writing than the video section of The Onion, every story in the pilot was hilarious.

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.

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

When the fuck did V come back on? Last I remember, it was episode 6, and it wasn't due back until 2011, now apparently there are 12 episodes (I.E. 6 that I missed)?!?!? WTF? Also, I can't find the V thread.

I can't say when the last time was that a commercial made my jaw hit the floor, but this German Sprite commercial did just that! Warning,.. this is a little racy! [url=http://www.1video.nl/video.aspx?sr=1&vid=qV2lSkY_lEGKuvMaDRfS_A]1Video - De nummer

Watch the entire 1st season.....like the storyline. For those who have watched, WTF this Jemma getting a paid sex ? Such a pretty woman ?? I know the end that she wanted to hurt somebody......but with her looks she wouldve no problem doing it. HBO, get a better cast next time.......

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.

New show with David Cross and Will Arnett. Airing on IFC but the pilot's up on Hulu now. http://www.hulu.com/watch/177769/the-increasingly-poor-decisions-of-todd-margaret-in-which-claims-are-made-and-a-journey-ensues

Anyone excited about this show? It's premiering Sunday on HBO. Personally, I love Steve Buscemi, and the premise of the show sounds like the HBO shows that I really love (like The Wire and Deadwood).

I just finished watching the first episode of the 3rd season and I have to say this show has slowly become one of my favorites on TV these days. I wasn't sure quite what to make of it in the first season but it just keeps getting better and better, hopefully they can keep that up.

'The Dark Tower' to be a movie, TV series - Culture Desk - An Entertainment and cultural blog by The Boston Globe

"Sherlock" (2010) No not the Downey Jr one. A modern 3 x 1.5 hour episode 'series' on BBC that was broadcast recently and will released on Bluray/DVD on the 30th August Quite recommended if you are able to obtain it. I didn't think I'd enjoy it but decided to give it a try due to positive comments by some friends. I ended up liking it and even laughed a few times (I hardly ever laugh at TV) and found it quite entertaining, if not quite as polished as big budget productions tend to be. I felt this lent the programme a bit of charm and let the focus on title character really shine through, which is good because he's brilliant.

Bradley Whitford & Colin Hanks play unlikely detectives for the Dallas PD: FOX Broadcasting Company - The Good Guys This could have been annoying, but somehow is played by both main characters in such a way that it is nothing but totally entertaining. It's definitely lite fare, but not insulting one's intelligence, and good pacing. My surprise favorite summer show (I almost grew a mustache!). My wife & I both laugh throughout. The summer finale aired on Monday, and will pick up on Fridays this fall. I think you can watch full eps online @FOX.

New series on A&E. Caught the premier two episodes of this last night, though I think it is slotted for Sunday nights. Seems promising; I am going to target watching this. Rubicon - AMC

Has anyone been watching this new series? They are flashing Grado cans all over the place, even calling them by name and giving them as gifts. RS2 specifically I believe. Check it out... not the best show on earth, but interesting non the less. Covert Affairs - Full Episodes and Clips streaming online for free - Hulu The end of Ep2 has one of the main characters giving the RS2's in a wooden box as a gift, and middle'ish of Ep1 has that same (blind) character commenting on their greatness.

TBS - Neighbors From Hell

This and Criminal Minds have pretty much been the only 2 shows i have followed every week over the last few years. Hate to see it go. Looks like Jack will bite the bullet at the end, meaning no comebacks.

Anyone else digging on this? I am NOT a fan of all the other Stagate incarnations but I am really liking this one. Robert Carlyle is pretty good in it.

Based on an Elmore Leonard character, Raylan Givens, played handily by Timothy Olyphant. Lots of guns, gals, good ol' boys, & drawls, to name a few of the Southern cliches that are unapologetically displayed in extremely charming fashion. Have to admit - Olyphant is charismatic as hell. Think I have a bit of a man-crush. Anyone else catching this new series on FX?

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

Can't wait to see how the pilot will be. Also Grace Park from the BSG series is going to be on it too Here is the article: Hawaii Five-O then and now As filming starts, commentators envision show in 21st century By Mike Gordon Advertiser Staff Writer It was stiff, serious and anything but real, yet somehow, "Hawaii Five-0" became an indelible part of its tropical setting. From 1968 to 1980, it ruled the genre of TV police dramas even as it created a vision of the Islands that was never close to the truth but…

Unbelievable that NBC could screw up The Tonight Show transition so badly. If they wanted to get rid of Leno they should have gotten all the way rid of him. Having him at 10pm undermined Conan's chances for a successful start, left doubt hanging in the air, and completely flopped as a format because Leno sucks. Instead of flip-flopping after 6 years of planning to get rid of him, they should have let him go when it failed. Now, Conan is quitting and the stupid-ass hack Leno is back at 11:30. Are they just going to pull a Dallas by giving him the show back and pretending it was all a bad dream? Conan's fuck you message to NBC is well done, imo: People of…

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

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