I may not watch Heroes tonight after all...

FileFront is sloooooow. But one day is better than a full week, I suppose.

― milo z (mlp), Monday, 9 October 2006 22:20 (nineteen years ago)

I think the whole lot has leaked now.

― Suedey (John Cei Douglas), Tuesday, 10 October 2006 14:15 (nineteen years ago)

oh do tell - i've got 1-9, and 11 (orig labeled as 10). in the piratebay 10 (really 11) comments there's links to the other episodes but all the download slots are full and someone said they not work so good any way.

i had 4 hour sweet wire marathon last night.

HOLY CRAP

through ep8 now - new teachers are fine.

― milo z (mlp), Wednesday, 11 October 2006 16:51 (nineteen years ago)

I watch 6 last night and was a little bit disappointed with how much they hammered home the whole Cutty/Namond-don't-care-about-politics thing, but otherwise it was a great episode as usual.

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Wednesday, 11 October 2006 16:55 (nineteen years ago)

but the cutty jogging scene was spectacular! i think the wire has only done two music montages ever -- that one and the "walk the line" from episode nine i think of season one. two of my favorite wire moments.

― Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Wednesday, 11 October 2006 17:00 (nineteen years ago)

That's true, it was pretty outstanding.

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Wednesday, 11 October 2006 17:05 (nineteen years ago)

I wonder who's gonna get the ring next.

― Paul Eater (eater), Wednesday, 11 October 2006 17:16 (nineteen years ago)

i think cutty (on the show) could do with a look through this thread - Girls - What Does "Romance" Mean To You?

― Euai Kapaui (tracerhand), Wednesday, 11 October 2006 17:23 (nineteen years ago)

Loved the Cutty jogging scene. I caved and watched up to episode 9; the scene where Chris and Snoop use Marc Clarke and the Big Phat Morning Show as an indicator of who is and isn't from Baltimore was hilarious. "Maybe I should ask the questions from now on."

cutty jogging scene = http://www.breakplay.com/gameimages/gamescreen41e2fa1b74694-game.jpg

― am0n (am0n), Wednesday, 11 October 2006 18:11 (nineteen years ago)

nah, isn't there a montage in every season finale?

funny that there's a Big Phat Morning Show reference in an episode that'll air just a few weeks after they re-tooled the show and canned everyone but Marc Clarke. .

― Alex in Baltimore (Alex in Baltimore), Thursday, 12 October 2006 01:28 (nineteen years ago)

they've been having a lot of cast members on the morning show lately, too (Prez, Omar, I think some of hte kids), but i keep sleeping in or forgetting to listen.

― Alex in Baltimore (Alex in Baltimore), Thursday, 12 October 2006 01:29 (nineteen years ago)

the other scene that bugged me so far is when prop joe does those voices on the phone

― am0n (am0n), Thursday, 12 October 2006 02:53 (nineteen years ago)

so i've watched them all now and i don't really know what to say - it's like that.

― jhoshea megafauna (scoopsnoodle), Thursday, 12 October 2006 11:04 (nineteen years ago)

Me too, I became embroiled in this show for two days or something because I couldn't resist! (I'd only seen the same ones you had before, btw)

I'm gonna have to rewatch this whole thing sometime soon. I'm very excited for the last season, it's all set up nicely... very nicely.

Yeah I also don't know what to say. And I don't want to spoil anyone.

― Suedey (John Cei Douglas), Thursday, 12 October 2006 11:31 (nineteen years ago)

were the last few eps you got .rm files? not really into watching it on realplayer

― am0n (am0n), Thursday, 12 October 2006 12:05 (nineteen years ago)

Are eps 10 and 11 still mistakenly ID'd on torrent sites? i don't wanna get crossed up

― Euai Kapaui (tracerhand), Thursday, 12 October 2006 12:07 (nineteen years ago)

I finished up at three in the morning and couldn't sleep afterwards. Fuck a impulse control and all, but I have no regrets. Aren't they supposedly either combining episodes 9 + 10 or adding a bunch of new footage to ep. 10 or something?

xxpost - yeah, the .rm rips were really low quality, but at that point it hardly mattered. That said, the Divx torrent of ep. 13 I downloaded had the LAST 20 MINUTES CUT OFF.

― govern yourself accordingly (dayan), Thursday, 12 October 2006 12:10 (nineteen years ago)

The only Ep 10 out is the nigh-unwatchable .rm version. I just got Ep 11, but I'm holding off to see if 10 pops up soon.

This seasons just becomes FUCKING EPIC at Ep9, doesn't it? All those weeks building and building and maybe a little slow and then whoa. Best season since the first.

― milo z (mlp), Friday, 13 October 2006 03:20 (nineteen years ago)

is this some kind of precendent, whole season leaking before it's even aired?

― am0n (am0n), Friday, 13 October 2006 03:29 (nineteen years ago)

I'm wondering who's going to get fired. I've only seen two screener IDs, so there can't be a long list of people responsible.

― milo z (mlp), Friday, 13 October 2006 03:35 (nineteen years ago)

home taping is killing serial drama

― shabba ranks (dubplatestyle), Friday, 13 October 2006 04:08 (nineteen years ago)

It sucks that this thread is now way way ahead of the broadcasts.

― Scott CE (Scott CE), Friday, 13 October 2006 14:13 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I am afraid to view it even though I'm two episodes ahead of the broadcasts!

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Friday, 13 October 2006 21:18 (nineteen years ago)

10 and 12 are totally watchable. i mean, not very good quality, but watchable. 13 on the other hand has a very noticeable audio sync problem.

having seen everything, i'm still thinking season 2 is the best, but they all are very unique in amazing ways. this one ... just ... ugh. it's hard to think about.

― lemin (lemin), Friday, 13 October 2006 22:21 (nineteen years ago)

2 >>> 4 >>> 1 >>> 3

!!!!

― Suedey (John Cei Douglas), Friday, 13 October 2006 22:24 (nineteen years ago)

2 = 3 > 1

Not ready to judge 4 yet.

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Friday, 13 October 2006 22:25 (nineteen years ago)

That's just personal preference, like. I mean, they're like chapters of a novel. A really fucking good novel. That is on telly.

I love this show.

― Suedey (John Cei Douglas), Friday, 13 October 2006 22:39 (nineteen years ago)

I was just looking at the cast page on the hbo site and was blown away by how many characters they have listed, but also how many characters that I know and love who didn't make the website cut. This show has got to have the most regular cast members of any show in history. Am I wrong?

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Friday, 13 October 2006 23:16 (nineteen years ago)

Also, the actress who plays Snoop has the same name as her character, which leads me to believe that she isn't acting.

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Saturday, 14 October 2006 00:41 (nineteen years ago)

I saw an interview with Felicia Pearson (it's on the HBO video podcast page), she said she got lucked up at fourteen (for something unnamed) and only got out at 20.

― milo z (mlp), Saturday, 14 October 2006 00:45 (nineteen years ago)

2 >>> 4 >>> 1 >>> 3

!!!!

-- Suedey (mincingspoo...), October 13th, 2006 7:24 PM. (John Cei Douglas)

wtf hell no. 3 + 4 are like some kind of television coup

― am0n (am0n), Saturday, 14 October 2006 01:01 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, but so were 1 + 2. If 2 had delved deeper into the union (like 4 with schools), it might have been inconceivably good, like 'best 12 hours of television ever' good.

― milo z (mlp), Saturday, 14 October 2006 01:08 (nineteen years ago)

The emphasis on the school system in this season makes it a frontrunner for my favorite season yet, mostly because I think it is unbelievably ballsy television and well executed at the same time.

Bubbles makes a mix tape 4u!

lol @ technology

― am0n (am0n), Saturday, 21 October 2006 23:32 (nineteen years ago)

Dookie's mix tape >>>> Bubbbles's.

― milo z (mlp), Saturday, 21 October 2006 23:37 (nineteen years ago)

has anyone else had trouble this week getting the next episode (44) On Demand early? for some reason my menu still won't go past 43. I mean, it's coming on tomorrow night so I shouldn't bitch, but I like to stay a little ahead.

― Alex in Baltimore (Alex in Baltimore), Saturday, 21 October 2006 23:38 (nineteen years ago)

speaking of which, I don't think there's anything better this season than Dookie's progression from silent outcast to functioning member of the group with computer skillz.

― milo z (mlp), Saturday, 21 October 2006 23:38 (nineteen years ago)

xpost - i heard that hbo took the week off, as in no episode last sunday, so it might have affected the on demand as well

― am0n (am0n), Saturday, 21 October 2006 23:51 (nineteen years ago)

or maybe its this sunday they're not showing an episode. i forget

― am0n (am0n), Saturday, 21 October 2006 23:53 (nineteen years ago)

IN THE NEXT EPISODE DOOKIE GETS KILLED

j/k

I can't believe that Snoop's baby is half cylon! And since Carcetti is the dad, you know what that means...
