Spader gonna get paaaaiid
Oh yeah. They just had one of the best new shows this year with Mr. Robot. In fact, I'd say that show is a bit too good for USA, and I'm surprised how they even landed it.
I don't since Psych is gone.
Mr. Robot is legitimately excellent, and I wouldn't be shocked if the lead gets an Emmy nod. Unlikely, but he does a great fucking job.

Having just caught up with Mr. Robot earlier this week I totally agree, but I wonder if being a summer show would hurt those chances.
Although if I do the math the second season would probably be premiering around the time Emmy nomination voting happens so hopefully they can ride that awareness. He's so good.

Bill Clinton is gonna be disappointed when he hears this. At least he'll have Spader for a while.
Amazing.
He is my favorite president, re-confirmed!
The minute he named both the leads of The Player and Blindspot, I knew he was a Strike Back fan. Clinton knows what's up.
Edit: The saddest part about the Sleepy Hollow ratings is it had such potential the first season and they wrecked it in the second season by trying to humanize the damn Headless Horseman and then making it about a jacked up love story with Ichabod and Katrina included.
- TVLine: CBS Renews Zoo for Season 2.

I'd never even heard of Zoo till today, but it's ... a zombocalypse show except with animals instead of zombies?

My wife was streaming S1 on Netflix. She described it as Planet of the Apes except all the animals are taking over.
Kind of. The trailer says it all.

I cannot believe i just watched Bill Clinton say the words Strike Back.
We need to get Clinton to send his goons to NBC to make sure The Player is renewed since Blindspot is pretty much a go for renewal.
I didn't even know people watched this show.
Guess i will watch the pilot on Netflix.

BTW, I wish TVDW hadn't left the AV Club, I don't want to have to check both Vox and AV Club.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
I tried watching Zoo once it was added to Netflix. I zoned out after 20 minutes and just let it play as a background noise while I wrote and did other stuff. It seemed pretty absurd, especially the last couple episodes.

Yeah, maybe Feinberg goes to Goodman's podcast and Sepinwall starts something with someone else... but there's really nothing left to listen to now.

Amazing, the trailer literally ends with backing up the heroes to a short cliff... that we saw them tumbling down a minute earlier in the trailer.
(even if it's not the same cliff, it sure looks it.)

Dammit, I was just kind of enjoying Graceland again this season after last year's stinker. Ari was awesome, although now that he's dead they would've had to find a new badass. "Come on, guy!"

I hope it never ends. It's my television comfort food. I could watch another hundred episodes of it.

The middle third of this season of Graceland was good but the first and last third sucked.

Uh, I'd change the title but I literally have no idea what this is
No wonder it got cancelled then

Chasing Life cancelled by ABC Family, now chasing death.

Sounds more like it caught it.

It's about a young reporter who gets leukaemia.

Why'd they do that? Sounds like an attempt to appeal to a certain segment of their demographics and it backfired spectacularly.
I also need to check out Strike Back and Banshee for that matter
Is Zoo the new Under the Dome?
Good thing I got off that train after the second season. I so wanted it to be like a Californian White Collar, but it just wasn't.
Too much bullshit characterization that flew in the face of logical decisions to make drama. Blech.

My wife and I bailed after the first episode in S2. My eldest son was still watching it though. He was bummed when I told him it'd been canceled.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
I was expecting that to be sacastic, but nope.
That's the better question.
But yeah, USA has at least three shows I love to watch. Mr Robot, Playing House, and Suits. Although Suits creatively is starting to lose me.
That Zoo trailer is hilariously awful. They fall down a cliff being chased by lions, and then the trailer ends showing them backed up to the same cliff being approached by lions. Brilliant editing. If they cared that much about the trailer, I bet the actual show is a real winner.
Now we need the CW to scoop up Italia Ricci so they can have all of the Amell clan (she's Robbie's fiancée) under one umbrella.
They should have given the show a shortened last season (like The Big C got).
After all, what good is a cancer show if you don't get to kill off the protagonist?

Good start for Dr. Ken
Does anyone know whether this is the last season for H50? Like, do they know this is it? I hope if it's going out this year they have a chance to wrap up the loose ends on the overarching stories.

yah its the Waitress. and Always Sunny isnt over. she only shows up once or twice a season
oh I thought it was the main actress from sunny lol, Ive only ever watched season 1. Wait how did I recognise her from Sunny then? Thats a hell of a coincidence
Wasn't H50 was one of the late renewals by CBS last year? And with that rating, I feel like it's a safe bet that the show will end this season.
