More burn Notice today and yesterday. Season 6 is pretty addictive so far. A surprising amount of characters have been killed off.

I just finished Season 6 of Burn Notice. I disagree with Grave. I thought it was good even if I didn't expect it to be the last episode of the season. It was a decent set up for Season 7. Of course it was nowhere near as good as Season 1's finale which is still my 2nd favorite live action tv finale. I liked this season overall. The first episode with AF in it and I believe the 2nd one, the one with the crazy cartel guy Jesse had to watch. I also liked seeing more of Loken, Pearce and my favorite actor from The Shield. And speaking of favorite episodes, my favorite Season 5 ones are the ep where Jesse's friend goes on a suicide mission and AF's first episode (99% because of another villain was in it but this helps immediately identify what episode I am referring too without the spoilers)

NewsRadio's got me again.

I am obsessed with sitcom plots that begin with a new "someone from the outside" becomes an authority figure among a group of characters who know each other very well and then are sort of relationship obstacles for the outsider who eventually becomes "one of the family," etc. Though, I always want a little more conflict than we ever get. The Nanny is the perfect example of this. The first episode is the only one where there is a legitimate threat of her being fired and, so it's the only one where it means something when she takes a stand on something. Of course...strangely, that show was less laidback than NewsRadio (even though it's mostly about people eating and talking at the same time) but, again, by episode #2 or 3, there are almost no more honest conflicty plot points about how the new person is fitting in with the core group. I don't know what I'm trying to say, but whatever That is, I wish there were a little more of it in the ensemble sitcom.
Well, I got so burned out on the road
Too many fags, too much blow
And then Mick and I split up and I said,
"Kid, it's time to take a little bit of a hiatus."
So I got myself a gig at the coffee shop
and I love it.
Why don't you take that corner booth,
I'll take your order in a minute...

Zosia Mamet is quickly becoming my new crush, so I may or may not start watching Girls soon. I'll see when winter break starts.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

I'm almost done with episode 1 of Girls. If you can't stand the sight of anal sex, you may want to skip it.

Really? o_O One of my most prudish friends is waaay into that show. Don't know how she'd get past some anal.  :lol:

A TV show called Girls that airs on HBO featuring anal sex.  Who woulda thunk it?

I'm still only on the first episode, but it is funny, even if I can see how others find it to be grating. Just thought I'd make note of that, though.

Well, if you can make it through The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, then I don't see why you couldn't make it through this.

"Skyscraper" is playing in episode 8.

I am in this show for the long run. Also, Hanna came with her boyfriend just as Demi hit the high notes.

You're really making this sound like the most high-end porn ever.  :thumbup:

I forgot to mention when Hannah's parents fucked in the shower, and her dad fell out. Or when Shoshanna (aka Zosia) listens in on her Bohemian cousin banging a random guy on the street. Or how said Bohemian girl (Jessa) and Marine were making out with each other in some creeper they picked up in a bar's apartment.

Or... there's jokes here. Honest.  ;)

I'm on season 2 of Girls now, but I also finished another one of my shows today.



Which had an ending that lived up to its reputation. I'm gonna miss seeing most of the show for the first time, and having the cast together.

Just finished rewatching Lost. No matter what anyone says, to me, this is still the greatest show ever made.

I suppose that's an unpopular opinion on this site, by far.
