The stream had died out as the Young Black and Gifted beat started playing, I thought he was about to bring Kane out.
Elec's live show is so fucking awkward.

*then leaves to go fuck his Rothschild gf*
I think that's the 5% chain he'd been wearing around. Giving that to Elec, then giving his OG Roc chain to Cole.
Isn't that the chain Jay said wasn't even his on The Breakfast Club?

Season 4 ending was the real series finale. Karen and Hank parting ways on good terms and being okay with it. They couldn't top it.

I'm still dragging my way through S3. It's cool and all, but cop/crime drama is the most played out thing in the history of television.

Agreed, at times the show is too crazy. I've been rewatching S2 and just saw the part where there's this big music montage at the beginning that ends with a guy walking into the police station with a bag, taking a severed arm out of it, and placing it on a cop's desk. Come on lol. Shit was shmega corny.

Never got into The Shield. Felt over the top all the time.
I'm going to break and listen to this low quality Shabazz if something better isn't around soon. The hype is real.

It's more like The Wire XX
TBH they're not alike at all aside from being US crime dramas.

It's funny, cause when I started watching Treme it really hit me how many Drama shows are cop dramas.
I can understand burning out on them, but then again, I just got hooked on the Bridge. Which is pretty much a Cop show about Cops on both sides of the Border.

I love True Detective (Just nabbed the DVD), but Imma hold off that call till I see a few more seasons, and if they can sustain that quality.

Let's see if True Detective can come back strong again. I have my doubts. Really looking forward to S2 but who knows how it'll go with a new cast and new location. Plus I'm still feeling burned from Homeland S2. Having a great first season doesn't mean shit.
I don't even like the shield like that, but it's pretty ???? to compare a single great season to an entire TV show. We'll see how good TD is after 7 seasons.

Forreal. Considering True Detective started slipping on the landing of what was only an 8 episode season, come back to me in 5 years and/or after the series finale. The Shield more than holds its own unless you take issue with over the top Kurt Sutter type drama.
I really don't like when TV shows go out of their element, or sometimes get "too extra" for their own good. I think I'll pass on The Shield.
I like never watch TV shows but checked out Game of Thrones recently. Don't know if it's as mindblowing as how revered it is, but it is definitely engaging and even more addictive.

at going after Colin Farrell for S2 though
Idk man, if you had told me before True Detective came out that, I'd be hooked on a Cop Drama with Woody from Cheers and that guy from EDTv I'd have called you liar. I gotta see how it plays out.
In Bruges was awesome though
at going after Colin Farrell for S2 though
Just watch, you going to get In Bruges'd
edit: dammit
I'm going through S2 of OITNB right now too. Season 2 is good, but it ain't as good as one so far. I'm on ep 6. Vee bringing in the cutthroat prison politics and stirring strife within the blacks has brought the show down a lot.
Piper's complete shedding of her valley girl persona by S2 is the funniest shit, though.

It's better than the first season if only because it has way less Piper in it.

He's a good actor but I do need to see who he's paired with there's suppose to be four main characters in the second season with one being a woman.

Toku gets it the show is so much better when they focus on its superior supporting cast.

Actually finished The Shield yesterday. Definitely over the top at times but it finishes insanely strongly. This thread definitely was what pushed me over the edge to start watching it and it took me like six months to get through it but it was definitely worth it though damn that finale.
S2 Piper is fire. I wish it focused on her more now than it did with her and Larry the lame.
It's not focusing on the supporting cast anymore than it's just focusing on Vee's--who's new--bullshit, though. I'm not a fan.
And the Darya plot-line is a thread I wish would end sooner than later, to mention another major supporting cast plot thread.

This is the one consternating thought I had while typing out that post. Reading all those McConaughey interviews where he maps out his method in becoming that character was some serious :lupe: shit. And watching the show again, he really became that character; he completely sold me on the idea of Rust Cohle while keeping me in the narrative, which is not easy to do when to do when the actor is a AAA movie star (or whatever, close enough). Woody's done southern crime shit before (I'm thinking No Country specifically) and his character doesn't have that charismatic gravity that Matthew's does, so :yeshrug:.
Haven't seen In Bruges save the last ~15 minutes but from my impressions, the writing was some next level shit. TD's was too but if that's what it takes to make Folin Carrell whatchable:
I'm on S2 of OitNB ep.11 now and damn this season is good but I think a bit more flawed than the first season. The power struggle that Vee brought in is definitely one of them. Shit is so racially divisive now. I miss the fun of season 1. Also really miss the dynamic between Alex and Piper. Hell, even Larry's story was made more interesting in the first season. But all this being said, this show reminds me of Lost in that the expanded cast of characters are so interesting and fleshed out that it makes up for the flaws in the plot. I'm enjoying the hell out of it, watched 3 episodes last night. But yeah, I liked the tone of the first season a bit more.
Touching on some other shows, I think I would have watched The Shield by now if it were on Netflix. One day it will happen. True Detective was fucking incredible and standing as a single season of television might be the best I have ever seen.
Also Artful Dodger, Justified, man. Last season was so bad. But prior, excellent show and super underrated.
