General TV Show Discussion

This little boy sure did grow up fast too.

Oh fuck yes, Kitchen Nightmares is going to Amy's Baking Company again on the 28th. I normally hate reality television, but god damn that was one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

I've been watching Spartacus: Blood and Sand. The fight choreography is pretty awesome. The show gets super graphic though. I can't believe what happened at the end of the last episode I watched. While I am disgusted by it, I am more shocked than anything else.

Everyone needs to watch True Detective. This show has been awesome.

I plan to watch True Detective when the season is over. I really don't have the time right now to add another show. So the next time I have a day to waste, I'll definitely be watching it.

I've all ready stated how much I love all of the CSI series. I'm now on, by far, my favorite. In episode 9 of season 4 of Miami, called Urban Killers or something, they attempt to tackle the wonderful world of video games. This time it's a take on GTA. And yes, it is as glorious as it sounds.

Mind you, this is a few episodes after they had Tony Hawk guest star where the blonde chick- who can use technology sounding words that are as real as unicorns to solve cases- asks "what's mo-cap"?

The best thing about this whole series is you don't even watch it; You just MST3K the shit until your belly hurts from laughing. Hard to tell if the writers and actors are even in on the joke.

Just thought I'd mention it for everyone with Prime: Every episode of Batman: The Animated Series is on there. Also in other super hero cartoon news Spectacular Spiderman's coming to Blu-Ray (fuck yeah).

You think if we buy it that they'll make another season?

I doubt it and even if they do, they probably won't be able to get all of the same talent back on. I'd love for them to do it now that Ultimate's cancelled though. But still, think it will look really nice on Blu-Ray

Anyone here watching Orange is the New Black? I started watching it recently. Pretty good show.

Wow, Ultimate's cancelled now? did you watch much of it?

Ah, nevermind, heard somewhere it was but it just got confirmed to start season 3 in July. I watched a few episodes and it really annoyed me. The jokes were terrible and took too much focus, the action was pretty lame, and the characters were annoying. I really hate Nova and White Tiger especially. Also hate that Spidey wasn't working on his own, he's so much better then. If they do crossovers, it should be things like Iron Man getting there before Spidey can get there, things reinforce Peter Parker not catching a break

Caught up with Almost Human and True Detective (fucking amazing). I'm off work today (fuck you, winter) so I'll catch up on Hannibal, The Americans, Brooklyn Nine-Nine...there's probably something else.

Ya I watched a couple of episodes; I also dislike how he's always breaking the fourth wall. It's too much. I guess they had to put that in, along with all the teamwork, because they had to differentiate it from Spectular. Of course they wouldn't have had that problem...

Started HBO's Rome tonight to keep my Greek/Roman kick going.

Saw some promo pictures for the new Flash show and I'm excited. Hopefully this will be the live action superhero show I've always wanted (fucking SHIELD). Though I probably should check Arrow out with how many good things you guys have been saying.

They introduced the (Flash) character in Arrow this season. I did not love him, but it could be cool.

Black Sails turned into a pretty damn cool show by the end. The finale was both surprising and satisfying. Those looking for some pirate action would dig this. Takes a little time to get going though. Things are in an awesome spot for Season 2 though.

Arrow is fantastic. It can be kind of soapy at times... but the action is great and they jam pack it with awesome villains. They don't waste time giving big payoffs. You meet a bad guy and there is confrontation and resolution very quickly. The Flash will also be appearing on the season finale of Arrow. So start watching Arrow. The guy who plays the Green Arrow is also a really good follow on Twitter. He's pretty funny. https://twitter.com/amellywood

I just caught up on the show Rick and Morty on Adult Swim. It's hilarious. Dan Harmon is a co-creator for you big Community fans around here. This really seems like something you'd love Greenman.

Is adult swim good again like it used to be back when Space Ghost, Brak, and all other sorts of good shows were on?

Not that big a fan of most AS shows and that one looked like it was too similar to their style, but if you think I'd like it, I'll check it out Trip. Thanks

The only thing I ever want to watch on AS these days is Venture Bros. Not sure what turned me off some years back. Perhaps it was Tim and Eric.

I do like what I saw of Venture Bros, should probably get back to that one. The only others I really liked were Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Metalocalypse.

I never watch any Adult Swim anymore either and only ever loved early ATHF, but some of my other TV watching friends kept praising this so I watched it. In the last episode they clearly improvised some dialog with the voice actors and then animated it after. The result is ridiculous and hilarious. I just laugh thinking about the show sometimes. It's really funny.

It really is. It's so stupid and brilliant at the same time. Basically what every comedy should be

If me and Greenman think it is awesome, it must be true. Here is the website which has most of the episodes. On Demand should have the rest:

Ok. That How I Met Your Mother finale was pretty horrible. But at least he didn't end up abandoning his kids and becoming a lumberjack.

I liked the ending.  And I don't know if I did the spoiler thing right, I've never made those before.

Spoiler:

I fixed those spoiler tags for you Bret. I did not like the ending. It was terrible. I don't even know where to start. Sepinwall said it better than I could ever hope to:

I don't agree with everything he says, but he hits pretty much all the reasons it was terrible. I will say this:
