My wife told me her hair is a wig. Agent Kean, that is.

Spader is awesome. Was/Am a huge Boston Legal fan.

Wife and I were scanning through Netflix Instant for random shows to watch, decided to watch the first episode of Psych. I think I am going to like this show.

Agent Kean on Blacklist makes me fear for our national security. She's a horrible agent. Love the show though. Thank God for Spader.
the entire task force is horrible. it's like they've never learned how to have every exit covered.

we say similar things when watching Law and Order: SVU and a witness or victim is attacked while supposedly be protected by the squad. "worst. cops. ever."
James Spader is the King of Smarmy. love it!

I agree. I did that with the first 2 seasons of Game of Thrones and also Rome when that was on HBO.

Breaking Bad and Sons of Anarchy definitely fell into the binge watch territory for me. waiting a week between episodes sucked by comparison... especially the year wait between the 2 halves of S5 of BB.

I almost wish that I had waited until BB was over to start watching it so I could have flown through the last 16 episodes the same way.

The Following was very good last night.
Spoiler:
Identity confirmed
Some flashbacks back to the beginning of the season, only, in ways not shown previously.
Spoiler:
And Mike knew all along.
Quite an interesting position being set up...
Spoiler:
between Ryan shacking up with the reporter simultaneously to the reveal that she's alive
And is there some level of circumstantial irony that there is a Mike Weston in this, off of the heels of Burn Notice (Though that was Westen), the way he has to lie like a spy.

Oh, and the whole Joe Carroll aspect is still there driving the show. James Purefoy is about perfect for the role.

AHS fans, the new installment is called "Freak Show" and is based in the 1950s.

The Good Wife is a quality network TV show, excellently cast, with superb writing as well. Big, big, big plot twist last night...But I digress...it's a good show, check it out sometime.
:shock: :o still reeling from sunday's Good Wife episode.

New Girl was hilarious last night. Best episode in some time.


And can someone please put Cougar Town out of its misery?

I've enjoyed New Girl recently (never really NOT enjoyed it, but it has been very good IMO the last few episodes).

If you stop watching Cougar Town, and more people do as well, then it will be put out of it's misery.

It's a legacy thing. More that we've been there since the beginning. Season finale is next week. Doesn't seem like it is gearing up to end though :(

Yep, enjoyed it as well. New episodes are even better, at least so far.

Literally the only show I have ever watched every episode of. So sad it ended tonight. The cast was amazing and had such great chemistry immediately and thru the entire series. Not sure what I am going to do on Wednesday nights now.

She got herself another show so that probably had a lot to do with it.

That article was a good read. This guy was behind Shatner's short-lived CBS comedy S@*) My Dad Says - - makes me want to give it a chance.
