Anyone see this week's Sons of Anarchy? Very cool episode

 

SOA is probably my favourite show on TV at the moment. I guess it really is true; you can't go wrong with Ron Pearlman. :-D

 

Loved the Irish-themed intro too!

 

Definitely one show I never miss....

 

Is it just me or is the new Law & Order: Los Angeles kinda hard to watch?

Shame. Caprica will not be picked up for a second season and the remaining episodes will be aired sometime in 2011.

 

Caught the movie and the first 3 episodes of the show but could never quite manage to catch it when it was on and was hoping to catch up when the full season was on dvd. Oh well.

 

Really don't know what Syfy has in development that will get better ratings tbh. It's not like the network is a ratings giant to begin with :rolleyes:

 

Didnt like Caprica I found it boring I just couldnt get into it

 

They are developing a new BSG TV movie about Adama during the first Cylon war

I've never seen a single episode of any Law and Order show...and I even here there is a UK version. Is it worth going back into?

 

Also, The Event, yay or nay?

 

You should watch. SVU is the best IMO

 

I watched the first episode of The Event. Didn't like it. Then again I despise all tv shows that start with all this unexplained action. I'm just left wondering why everything is happening and don't have the patience to wait for it to be explained.

 

Yep. I watched and didn't like it. Then again I watch so little TV that what I do watch is usually crap anyway.

<p>What are some TV shows you watch or watched that you knew where horrible, but you still liked (stay away from reality TV as that is too easy)</p><p> </p><p>

I recently started watching LEXX again on Netflix on Demand I remember watching it when it was on Show Time I want to say or maybe it was HBO when it was first on. It has to be one of the worst space shows ever yet I love it. I mean the Acting is horrible, the costumes are horrible, the sets are horrible, the effects are bad for the time, the writing is a combination of cheesy and just plain bad, and the story kind of sucks. That being said it is just fun. It crosses that line perfectly of so bad it’s good.</p>

<p>So I recently got hold of the first season of The Shield. Never seen it before, not a single episode. Always wanted to though. </p><p> </p><p>

Absolutely loved it, Vic is my new Jack Bauer. Bought the full set after watching season 1 and a couple of episodes of season 2. Hoping it holds out! <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

Just caught the season finale of Sons of Anarchy. Amazing. So glad it's been picked up for a 4th season - there's definitely some mileage left in the show and the characters.

 

Speaking of season endings - Season 2 of The Shield had a particularly epic one. I've just finished season 4 (watching them all back to back), but two has the best ending so far. When the cash from the money train is all stacked up and the Strike Team realise what they've done as 'I Am Overcome' by Live playing over it - that was a 'Damn, this is good' moment.

 

On to season 5...

I'm enjoying the Walking Dead alot, but some of my friends who read the comics hate it.

 

I get the impression that if your one of those people who hate when something is changed from the source material it's not as fun.

 

I love the Walking Dead show but I like Zombie type shows/movies anyways

 

Watching the Show actually makes me want to go and buy the comics

Can't get enough of that stuff (although I am British, so that's probably cheating). The episode where they are trying to avoid the Football Results is classic comedy at its finest.

 

It's a shame Ant and Dec copied it and made a terrible attempt at it, but I am addicted the Likely Lads.

 

Also is anyone getting sick of E4 playing Friends over and over again?

@Lexx: It is so bad it's awesome. Didn't hurt that Ms. Fan Service was hot and showed plenty of skin ;)

 

I remember staying up late to watch it on Sci-Fi. I had no f-in clue what was going on but it was fascinating in a "train wreck" kind of way...

 

 

@The Event: It reeks of being a "Lost" rip off. Lost meets space aliens. End of show ;)

 

Currently caught up on:

- 30 Rock

- Chuck

- White Collar

- Castle

- The Office

- South Park

 

Currently catching up on:

- Bones

- House

 

Currently Re-Watching:

- Buffy the Vampire Slayer

- Babylon 5

- Star Trek (DS9, Voyager, and eventually (shudder) enterprise)

 

 

That may look like a lot, but keep in mind that list hasn't changed for 2 years now ;)

Watched it yesterday, like you said. Amazing. Won't say much about it, since it will just sound like rubbish if I try not to give anything away, but it is a must watch.

 

Definitely got another season in it (although quite easily it could have ended this season by changing the ending so slightly) but I wouldn't be sad if it ended next season while it is still good, rather than drag it out for too long.

Best show of 2010 is Terriers by a mile. That was going to read best new show then I realized that it wasn't just the best new show but the best period.

 

I argee it was a great show. However then there is this:

 

Terriers is getting awful ratings and apparently its teetering on the edge of being cancelled.

 

Stennick is right, I read that the show did not do well in the ratings and there is a very good chance it will be cancelled. That being said, Damages did not do good ratings for FX and they kept that around for three seasons I believe. If you go by that FX has some history of keeping quality shows around despite the abysmal ratings they seem to garner. I hope Terriers is one such show.

I know it did bad. I blame FX for how they marketed the show in a way in which no one had any idea what the show was about. I mean if it wasn't on FX a channel I gave all of it's new shows a chance I wouldn't have bothered to watch it. I am just hoping that it becoming the critic darling of new shows this year (due to the lack of one on network TV this season) FX renews it. You never know with Cable channels, sometimes they stick with a show with low ratting as long as it gets good press.
