episodes 2 worked for me, I like Pete and Ted together out there. When Don goes back and forth to see Meghan, it does nothing good for the show.

the long running plots are a concern with me with so little time left. I'm hoping Sally's words knocked some sense in to him. While it seems like he's been knocked down constantly for every season, I find it interesting to see where he is now not working. For me, it's a suspenseful change from the past seasons.

Even with the weird plots...Mad Men is still compelling for me. The meticulous sets, costumes, and so on, are really well done.

I didn't know this until yesterday, but the blond girl in Veep is the same girl from the movie, My Girl.

Silicon Valley was very good, too. Loved the Pied Piper logo discussion...and the sesame fixation.

"Like a snack ****." That line still cracks me up.
The first episode was so-so, but the last two have been pretty solid.

Amazon Prime's content is starting to nicely fill out. Seriously hate their fast-forward function with no image preview though.

I don't really care which one it is. MST3K The Movie is the pinnacle of MST3K for me, so I guess Mike.

Yeah, their video player and interface(s) are about 2-3 iterations behind Netflix. But nice work adding HBO programming.

I hate mid-season breaks because of shows like this. I never remembered when it had returned and by the time I had time to try and catch up I had no way of watching the shows. Midseason breaks can go rot.
