Dexter...
Spoiler:
meh to Sunday's episode. I'm interested in what the tech guy has up his sleeve (if anything), but I don't really care for Travis threatening Harrison...snore.

Last Man Standing with Tim Allen has been consistently funny all year, can't help but think of an edgier Home Improvement when I'm watching, and that's not a bad thing.

Terra Nova is finally getting good now. They ditched the Stargate-style single episode plots and finally have an ongoing story plot.

i wonder how long it will take for mandy patinkin to act like a smurfette on set and ruin the chemistry of the show (a la dead like me, a la criminal minds)
Maybe he will hold his ego in check since he is only the 3rd best actor on the show.

What the hell are they gonna do now? Did you watch the last episode? I don't want to reveal any spoilers but I'm pissed at the girl and am really biting my nails for the next one.
Spoiler:
OK. Here. What if they blow up the gate thing? They'll be cut off from the future and won't get medical or any other supplies but at least they'll have their colony and live. Now I fear a whole army will cross over with tanks and everything and blow them up into the smithereens.

I was thinking they could just build a giant enclosure around the gate and everyone that comes through will be trapped until they are let out. Instead of just leaving it out in the middle of the jungle.

That would have to be a hell of an enclosure though because I'm thinking they are coming with bombs and dynamite!

I just started watching Blue Mountain State on Netflix.

Pretty funny show, but really disturbing at times.

^^ I watched a few episodes of that with my friend. Don't know why I laughed, but I did, haha. The main QB guy is crazy.

"You think you got the Heisman.... locked up?!" Love the delivery on that line.

It is great, I'm happy to say that the second season is just as good. I don't know why it's not mentioned come awards season, the acting is top notch. I always found it to be quite hilarious when Adam ends up dancing on the show.

I'm 6 episodes into season one and I can't stop watching (slow day at work + streaming netflix = happy PFiDC). Even though my son is only 5 1/2 weeks old I think that I am viewing the show differently then I would have a few months ago but it would be just as awesome if I wasn't a dad.

I fell behind on my TV shows and have some catching up to do.

I watched the final two episodes for Always Sunny for the season, the High School Reunion Pts1 & 2.

I thought they were pretty good. I just laugh at Danny DeVito in that show. I think he is great.
