How is SOA this year? I thought the season 2 finale was really stupid, has it recovered?
― Jouster, Thursday, 14 October 2010 19:07 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah SOA definitely has plenty of moments of levity, oddball characters, goofiness, etc, in addition to the tons of violence and misery and shock value and drama. i think that season 3's been pretty good so far, although it feels kind of mellow compared to season 2 (which i devoured on DVD in the space of like a week so that i'd be caught up to watch a new episodes and was kind of overwhelming but awesome).

How do you people have enough time to watch ten different shows on a regular basis?

i'm pretty much an unemployed stay-at-home parent. but yeah pretty much any show that I can watch at my leisure OnDemand, i do, and only make a point to watch a couple of must-see shows while they're actually on.
― some dude, Thursday, 14 October 2010 19:13 (thirteen years ago) link
agreed, first few episodes of season 3 left me bored and wanting some ass kicking. although season premieres ending...whoa.

I just have a really long Netflix list, and don't mind at all being a year behind the rest of the world when it comes to the shows I like. Rarely watch more than an episode or two of anything a night, and only watch maybe four nights a week, on average. (Only shows I actually watch while they're on are Meet The Press and Face The Nation on Sunday mornings, which I probably should've honorable-mentioned, at least. Never think of them on threads like this, since they've never been in my Netflix queue.)

the only ones i truly go out of my way to watch are FRINGE (it really has gotten so much better this season) and Doctor Who. should say House too, but i am losing interest.
― Kim, Monday, 17 January 2011 14:56 (thirteen years ago) link
I've never ever watched House. I suppose I should try it one day, people seem to like it.
― Rejoice that you weren't eaten (chap), Monday, 17 January 2011 14:58 (thirteen years ago) link
I've grown to be a big fan of House, but I'm starting to wonder where this season will lead. I mean, once they crossed the line of House and Cuddy getting together... I worried that a lot of the driving tension outside of the weekly medical mysteries would wear off, but they've done a fairly good job so far this season. Also ready for more Thirteen.

In no particular order and including stuff that's currently on hiatus (which is pretty much everything atm):
Peep ShowBreaking BadCommunityParks and RecreationThe Soup30 RockHappy EndingsLouieOnion News Networkwhatever Tim And Eric are doing at a given time
Stuff I watch that isn't quite top ten: South Park, How I Met Your Mother, SNL, Switched At Birth, Eagleheart. Haven't seen enough episodes of the new HBO comedies to say one way or another. Suddenly realizing that, despite my love of the format, I'm barely watching any current one-hour serialized dramas.

Billy On The Street is a goofy man-on-the-street pop culture quiz parody on Fuse, really stupid show but also pretty consistently one of the funniest things i've watched lately

― Quiet Desperation, LLC (Deric W. Haircare), Friday, 8 June 2012 00:23 (eleven years ago) link
I think the only shows I really like that are on right now are Workaholics and Portlandia. Shows that I've sort of forgotten about, but which I'm sure are as good now as they were when I used to watch them: It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Top Chef.
