2012 Fall TV Thread

cute?

kicked into a wall by Nic Cage?

oh, how i wish

hey now

you'll always have this: http://youtu.be/e6i2WRreARo

This reminds me, 88 Minutes (with Leelee) is a ridiculous (but funny) movie.

right now i'm watching an amazing piece of shit on the CW called "Mr. Box Office," starring Bill Bellamy, Jon Lovitz, Vivica Fox, Keshia Knight Pulliam and Gary Busey.

O_O

you time traveled back a decade and THAT'S what you're doing with your time????

actually i stepped into the time machine with a rabid donkey and together we were fused into Gary Busey

i'm glad that it looks like elizabeth mitchell is going to be semi-regular on revolution, i'm basically only watching for her + billy burke + giancarlo esposito. if the show has any future i hope they allow the focus to move away from the brother and sister, their perils are p. annoying.

also "monroe" the militia mastermind seems laughably miscast, he has no gravitas or charisma to speak of.

i think i disliked Juliet on Lost enough that her presence is more of a con than a pro for me.

i thought mindy kaling project was funny!

i really liked it

I enjoyed it and Ben and Kate,

oh shit I wanted to see Ben + Kate, the trailer cracked me up

ben and kate was ok, my previous ridiculously obscure crush dakota johnson is in it (1. see her in social network - 'damn, she cute' 2. see her in 21 jumpstreet - 'hey it's that girl from social network' 3. see her in ben and kate - 'ok seriously who is this girl')(she's don johnson and melanie griffith's daughter). watched new girl for first time last night, struck me as less funny my boys - should i keep watching? for some reason i also watched 2 broke girls, i think that seriously might be the worst show i have somehow watched at least six episodes of, worse than mind of the married man.

yeah dakota johnson is ridiculously cute

new girl was good this week but i feel like so far there's a specific handful of episodes from which you'd probably have to see one to get hooked

lol mind of the married man

i'll probably hang w/ new girl, it's got dude from veronica mars in it. i'm an undecided voter but i think i lean 'no' on zoey deschanel, i remember when i first saw almost famous laughing that her bad wooden acting was so similar to patrick fugit's, i almost thought it was intentional since they were playing siblings. i liked her in elf, couldn't last more than ten minutes into 500 days of summer. i'll stick w/ it - ppl like it, and i watched nearly an entire season of 2 broke girls and several seasons of entourage so whatever i'm 'risking' by watching a show i might wind up deciding isn't good i lost along time ago.

vegas is watchable! standard cbs procedural w/ vague daydream of being an fx drama - period drama which so far only means 'they drive old cars', chiklis as big bad, dennis quaid is great per usual

yeah trust me most of the people defending new girl on ilx now were all 'lol zooey is the worst' a year ago. i basically regard her as a minor part of the ensemble at this point, it's like if 'friends' was called 'phoebe.'

i tried to watch abc's 'help my neighbors are space aliens!' show last night, it was pretty dire.

Aw I thought The Neighbors was dumb but funny

'lol zooey is the worst' a year ago

this certainly will not stop us from continuing to say this

yeah i mean she's still irksome as a celebrity but i think the show uses her well, and more importantly doesn't overuse her

oh man last resort is awesome

Cool. Watching it tonight!

oh shit I need to put that on my DVR

i tried to watch abc's 'help my neighbors are space aliens!' show last night, it was pretty dire.

This self congratulatory interview with the show creators was funny.

sigh

it is really sad discovering how low your pander bar is

oh man last resort is awesome

― Johnny Fever,

it's setting up a lot of stuff, sure would be nice if ryan got to play it out.

Yeah, I kinda just saw The Neighbors out of the corner of my eye while doing other stuff, but what I saw was really terrible.

I liked some of the details of the aliens, enough that i can't say it's worse than alf on first whiff

i tried to watch Partners out of the corner of my eye on mute, but it was too much for me.

those two "new girl" eps were pretty good, esp. winston with the girly drink and the Public Enemy basketball outro

lot of balls in the air with this Last Resort thing but I'm totally in.

Elementary is pretty watchable. Placing Holmes in the CBS-style police procedural setting is perverse, but since all those other clowns are just wannabe Sherlocks why not have the real thing.

I can't bring myself to watch Elementary, it just sounds too awful

every review i've seen has been reasonably positive; i can give it a shot

sounded like garbage but the clips i saw really weren't bad

I can't bring myself to watch Elementary, it just sounds too awful

It really wasn't too bad -- I think they made it different enough from Sherlock to where it feels like its own thing and not a cheap American rip off. It's a decent procedural, Lucy Liu & Johnny Lee Miller were both good.

my wife who has been all JOHNNY LEE MILLER AS SHERLOCK HOLMES!!! for weeks seemed happy with it, i thought it was at least not as stupid as i expected

yeah basically. could develop into something decent.

I'll stick with Cumberbatch

idg lucy liu though, has she ever been good in anything

Elementary >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sherlock

Never change, Melissa.

looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

Sherlock is one of the worst things on television. Elementary doesn't have to be that good to be a million times better than it.

Nicole, your obsession with Melissa is so genuinely creepy that if this were real life I'd suggest a restraining order.

Cajun Pawn Stars is one of the worst things on tv

but you're welcome to enjoy Elementary, Melissa.
