I generally try and stick with a TV show even if its quality has deteriorated rapidly.

24 is the only show I ever really wanted to stop watching. It just got so bad.

The only show recently that I've given up on is Walking Dead. I only really liked the pilot and then gave up after a couple episodes of season 2. Now I hear it's really good. I might catch up on it.

Homeland isn't as good as last year, but I still enjoy it.

It still had an amazing run, seasons 1-3 were great. I dont remember much about season 4, but season 5 was good again. I stopped watching it midway through season 6, though.

With that said, Alias >>>> 24 :p

The first few seasons of 24 were brilliant.

There was a decline in quality after season 5 imo.

24 Spoilers

The nuclear explosion in downtown LA was the worst moment in the entire show. And Jack killing Curtis.

I saw Skyfall on Saturday and was a bit disappointed tbh. I felt like it dragged about 20 minutes too long in the middle. Didn't mind the length of the final sequence but from China until then was too long IMO. The love interest was not even remotely hot enough to be an unknown as well.. you have to be a known commodity or exceptionally hot and she was neither.

It was definitely better than QoS which was a piece of shit but I liked Casino Royale more I think. Either way, nowhere close to being the "best Bond ever."

In 24, when they attacked the goddamn
White House
; that was... a whole new level of stupid.

That plus everything in S6 made me give up on the show.

Msuic-Gaf sucks because there isn't an Indie-music thread. Japanese music-Gaf si great, even if it isn't active.

Metal-Gaf is awesome as well. You guys need to ignore the Pop-Gaf.

Aww, this Horrors album is just a remix album of Skying or something. :(

Regarding 24: I thought it had a dip but remember enjoying 7 and 8 as I recall. Whatever season had Jack wearing the Army of Two body armor with the gatling gun or whatever was fuck awesome.

Its too early for them to release a new material anyway, so I wasn't expecting anything.

Also, its not like Skying need remix or anything. That album is a remix in itself.

Juve-GAF and anyone who's interested in the history of Juve's Number 10 jersey and understands italian, Sfide (amazing football documentary series, btw) did an episode about it yesterday, narrated by Alex Zanardi. Italy-GAF may try watching it directly from Rai's site here, although it doesn't seem to be working for most people. There's a solution for that. Open VLC, Media -> Open Network Stream -> Network tab -> insert this URL -> click Play.

You can also save the stream to disk with VLC, if you want to watch it on PS3 or wherever later. Open VLC -> Media -> Convert / Save -> Network tab -> insert this URL and select 'Convert' from the dropdown menu below. A new window should come up, name the file however you want under 'Destination file', select the 'Dump raw input' option and click 'Start'. You should have a white screen window open up at this point, don't worry, that's all you'll see until VLC finishes downloading the video. It'll probably take a while, as it's quite big, 958MB.

It's really worth it. Hopefully someone will come up with english subs.

I found out yesterday there's a GirlGAF OT. It felt..strange, lurking around in there.

All they talk about is cosmetics and beautiful legs.

It was mentioned in that shocking thread in Gaming section, but yeah, it will blow your mind once you find out.

That was towards the end of the series. The eight season did get better with time.

Pop gaf, Metal gaf, Kpop and etc, they are all fine and legit music interests. I don't know why people care about something as subjective as music tastes.

Edit: Thanks based Zab! Fuck, who's going to be our next 10? No one around/affordable is worth it.

John NOT Terry ‏@BigJohnTerry
Gareth Bale has been sensational this season for Spurs. Surely he deserves the Fallon D'floor award for his performances...


lmao

Dortmund GAf, elsk is asking if any of you guys is on twitter.

All I know is that Phantast2k is on Okcupid :p
 
Just had the craziest match on FM.

Took the lead, but was 3-1 down by half time. Unsurprisingly, at least two of the goals were due to Santos' lack of positioning so I replaced him with Gibbs who in turn set up two goals in quick succession. 3-3.

Then another 2 goals, 5-3. It was just attack after attack following my half time hair dryer session. And then I concede once more, 4-5. Amazing to watch
 
Why would they need another right back when they have Cesar Aquadefilter?

Well Ivanovic being moved to centre back means we pretty much only have 1 right back currently. That and this Wallace guy is thought very highly of. We also already owned some of his rights in exchange for letting Deco go to the club back in 2010 this was really just buying the other 60% or whatever

Expecting a loss tonight considering how strong Olympiakos are at home and considering who we are resting. It's such a shame really because finishing top of the group would have been great

I had a game like that, except I was on the opposite end of the thrashing. Was 3-0 up at half-time as Chelsea (in the first season of the game), and ended up losing 5-3 to Arsenal, with Giroud scoring a hat-trick.

Eh, just setting up our inevitable tie against Barcelona in the round of 16. If there's a way we're getting top 4, it'll be because we get knocked out of the CL nice and early and get to refocus our efforts on the league.

I was winning 1-0 at Spurs, then losing 3-1, then was winning 4-3. At half time.

Then I was losing 5-4 until the 92nd minute and I equalised. That shit was cray

I was really hoping it would be RVP, for a few years at least. If was our turn too. Arsenal gave us this guy ...

... we gave them this guy ...

... should've returned the favour with RVP. :/

No idea, Yurt. Aguero was just wishful thinking, Jovetic will never happen for obvious reasons. Guess we'll have to wait for Del Piero's son to grow up. A new Maldini father -> Maldini son miracle is bound to happen again sooner or later. Sigh.

I'd like to think so, but I'm starting to lose hope that we have any chance of a top 4 finish regardless of whether we get knocked out of the CL or not.

Anyone have any insight into Malaga's XI today?

Probably something like this

Caballero
Gamez, Sanchez, Weligton, Eliseu
Toulalan, Camacho
Portillo, Isco, Joaquin
Santa Cruz

Demichelis is suspended, and I think Saviola is injured(Baptista still not 100% too) so maybe Santa will start.
