Re: TV Shows
Pauline is giving Norrie a run for her money in the worst actress on the show department.

Re: TV Shows
Its not really the second season. I think the quality actually fell off with the last few episodes of the first.tifosi77 wrote:That's a common affliction of many musical acts. The first record is a good indicator of the band's quality, because they spend years with that material. They may have performed the songs like 300 times before setting foot in a studio with a producer. The second record is usually a collection of material that was rejected (for whatever reason) for the first record and few new tunes. It may only take two or three records to get to a point where the material is as new to the band as it is to the listener, and sometimes the quality just isn't there. That's why I don't mind it when bands like Tool take six or eight years between releases (altho in their case, there's pending litigation gumming the works) - I want the music to be polished.Idoit40fans wrote:They should have developed better so gs to build the second season around. I hope they have done that at this point or at least put a better set of episodes together. I thought the second season was pretty bad.Gaucho wrote:Unexpected but welcome.
I don't totally agree with you on the quality of the 2nd season, but the part of me that does thinks that might be the reason.

Re: TV Shows
My wife and I have been enjoying that show a lot. Jim Henson's creature shop as well. We watched Ink Masters for a couple seasons, but they've gotten further away from cool tattoos and more toward reality tv show drama nonsense so we stopped watching.shafnutz05 wrote:Face off on Syfy is way more entertaining than I thought it would be.

Re: TV Shows
I like Sherlock, but some of the fancy visuals and camera work I could do without. Some of the episodes feel a little drawn out to me and Moriarty is too much like a run-of-the-mill Bond villain for my taste. Still a good show overall.

Re: TV Shows
i've been putting party down on lately whenever i need something quick to watch. despite only having 20 episodes, it's probably one of the top 5 comedy shows of all time for me.

Re: TV Shows
Anyone else seen Outlanders on Starz? Caught part of the third ep last night so looked up the first two, and they are on-demand on DirecTV through 9/29. I got halfway through (31 minutes of 64) the first episode last night. (Give me something well done set in Scotland's past and I am hooked)

Supposedly Jemaine tweeted that he misspoke, and it's not really Flight of the Conchords...just some show he (they?) are doing four episodes of for HBO.

Re: TV Shows
Anyone looking forward to any new shows this year. To be honest, I haven't followed any previews or anything, so I don't even know what is coming out.

Re: TV Shows
New shows I plan on giving a glance: Scorpion, Flash (really excited about this one since CW is doing it), and Gotham. There might be others but these 3 are at the top of the list.newarenanow wrote:Anyone looking forward to any new shows this year.

Re: TV Shows
I'll check out that new Will Forte one where he's supposedly the last person alive on earth. Not sure what else is new that will pique the interest, but I might check out one or two more as well.

I'm trying not to get too excited for Gotham because I don't trust Fox. If CW was doing this, I would be excited.

Re: TV Shows
I'll give Black-ish a shot.newarenanow wrote:Anyone looking forward to any new shows this year. To be honest, I haven't followed any previews or anything, so I don't even know what is coming out.
I'll give How to Get Away With Murder (Viola Davis) more than one shot.
The Mysteries of Laura (Debra Messing cop detective show) might be a default because the wife likes her. Same goes for Bad Judge (Kate Walsh).
I'll probably record and watch Gotham with my son.
I think Selfie (John Cho) could be good, but probably won't be as edgy as it needs to be. Sort of a modern day Pygmalion/My Fair Lady.

Dramedy: Chuck or Psych
I actually thought of this one while typing the bottom part of this post, but check out Terriers. Was an FX comedy-drama starring Donal Logue that only lasted for one season, but its completely awesome.
As far as new shows, I'm not overly impressed or intrigued by any of them. I'll check out Gotham, but to me it looks like a hot mess that has too much crap crammed into it (teenage Catwoman, child version of Poison Ivy) that might be saved by Donal Logue's awesomeness. I would be more interested in this if it was more Gordon and Bullock and less Batman universe with everyone aged down 20 years.
I'm also going to give Constantine a go. I'm a fan of the movie (I know, I'm a horrible person) and it got consistently good reviews (and better reviews than Gotham) coming out of Comic Con.
Other than that, I'm sure Bad Judge will get a couple viewings because the wife likes Kate Walsh and I'll get into Flash once I have a chance to watch Arrow.

So Chuck is good? For some reason I have it in my head that it read a lousy flop
