The first thing I thought was that she had her shoes off because of security and that it was nice that she bought a ticket. It's possible, though improbable.

Watching Repo Games for the first time... lol. Not sure it's something I'd watch on a regular basis, but wow these are some winners.

I was disappointed with the last Office w/ Michael Scott. I mean, I know what they were trying to do with the episode, and a lot of people liked it. I just thought it would be much funnier (it was too serious IMO).

Yeah, I thought it would be funnier, but at the same time, I understand the whole serious saying goodbye thing. It would be better if the previous 3 episodes were hilarious, but I thought for the most part they sucked, so it led to a disappointing goodbye.

While I only started watching about a year ago, I love me some NCIS. Last night's episode, "Baltimore," was awesome.

Spoiler:
I am curious as to who dies at the hands of the port-to-port killer (as the previews for the next episodes lead us to believe that something big goes down). Although the entire main cast is signed for next season, so my guess is that it is Tony's girlfriend who is running the other team (name slips my mind - but she is HAWT). Between losing his old partner and his girlfriend (if she does indeed die), I think a lot of next season will center around Tony dealing with that.

I hate when Matt and Trey decide to take up a cause instead of just try to be funny. I get it, you guys thought the Comedy Awards were stupid. You don't have to make an entire episode about it.

that wasn't the "least funny" episode of the office ever, but it was definitely the "worst"

I really don't think the office will be around anymore after next year, definitely the year after.

My wife begged me to watch Justified, and I'm glad she did...great show.

Did you know that the pilot episode was filmed in Pittsburgh? Consol Energy Center was used for a courthouse scene...or something.

Subsequent episodes were filmed in California, which doesn't look like rural Kentucky at all.

Great show though.

Great finale. Great cast this entire season. Can't wait for the next one, but I fear we're going to see Ryland against Boyd again.

it's been good this year. i was pissed then they voted russell out, but felt better after seeing that it lead to the demise of the entire tribe.

it's amazing what rob is doing. i don't know how he's able to control those people like that, but they are just complete minions.

Throwing that competition to purposely vote Russell out was the beginning of their downfall. Not only did they lose a physically strong guy, but also a good strategist. At that point, they should have instead concentrated on winning competitions. They all knew what Russ was like, so there was not much to fear he would surprise them.

Rob's smart. And he's likable. I'm not surprised they all stick to him. But this is the end of the season now so everyone will have to start to strategize for themselves. The previews showed that Rob is going after Ashley next.

Survivor is still on?!? And is the Rob you guys are talking about the same Rob that married that girl from Pittsburgh that was on the show? Those 2 were always my favorites when I used to watch the show (and when they was on the Amazing race as well).

Yeah, it had it's moments, but not the best. Liked how they managed to work in an Osama reference so quickly.
