That crossover was way better than I expected. I enjoyed the show very much. Thought the two styles blended perfectly, and I loved the metaphorical jabs at one another.

Anyone watch Mr. Pickles on Cartoon Network?

Who thinks of these shows? I'm glad they did, I love it.

wow, I had the exact opposite reaction. I thought it was pretty weak and ended up thoroughly disappointed. a few funny things but overall it seemed to me to be on par with "It's A Trap!" i.e. imo they totally phoned it in. perhaps I expect too much after all these years of hilarity.

Crap didn't see it yet, was going to watch tonight, but this is disappointing. They made it seem like it would be a prominant character. BOOOOOO.

Spoiler:
Why the hell did that newpaper lady randomly decide to start diddling Campbell? At first with the way she was acting, I thought perhaps it was part of Bohanon's plan to distract him while he enacted the rescue... but that doesn't appear to be the case. I don't get the motivations of the women on this show at all. *insert joke about men never understanding women*
I loved the episode. Can't wait until next week. As for your spoiler:
Spoiler:
I still think that is the case. I think she is hooking up with him to get info/not make him think straight.

Legend of Zelda Cartoon. My kids loved it (probably like I did when I was kid), but I had to leave the room and let them enjoy it.

I downloaded that a couple years ago and was excited to watch it again. It was pretty soul crushing when I saw what it was.

Catch phrase filled garbage fest. It was really really bad. Now Super Mario Bros. That was the stuff. When they'd grab that flower power. Man.

I remember my brother and I waking up early to watch the Super Mario Bros show, and then every Friday was special because it was Zelda. Loved it.

Then a few years ago I watched an episode or two, and then almost cried. It wasn't what I remembered.

I'm still debating on ever watching another episode of Captain N. I loved that show as a kid and would think the same thing would happen. I'd watch it today and realize how crap it was. I want to keep the memories good.

I really like it. The 2nd season is better than the first.

Ray Donovan was excellent this season.

Masters of Sex continues to be a solid show but i didn't think season 2 was as good as the first.

Tough to watch as in gore, or tough to watch as in it falls off the wagon?

Castle back tonight...
Spoiler:
Nuptials interruptus resolved?
Noticed Fox moved Brooklyn 99 to Sundays, as did CBS with CSI. I guess I know why we had slot space for Chicago PD on Wednesday now.

Watched Grey's premiere over the weekend...
Spoiler:
the new girl - Richard's daughter - seems very similar to the storyline when Lexie Grey was on the show, very similar plotline.
Spoiler:
And you know Derek wasn't going to go after all...

It's not the gore cause it's on a network. It's the violence. It's very real and very tense. I'm not saying this is a bad thing. It brings up emotions in the viewer so it does it's job.

Ran across this article regarding HoW. Tells about Elam's death and how Common wanted off the show to focus on his music career. Changed the writers path for the season and the character. Ended up being a blessing in disguise all said.

Can't disagree with that, from the 1st episode.

I really thought the college girl love-interest character was going to be a future plot point. Guess not.

Should have just left it where it ended in S3.
