The show is about the cast. The murders...can get repetitive, but i surprisingly like watching the team work together. Everyone has a role on the team and they each play it well.

The team is why my wife likes it so much. What I have watched of it, that is my favorite part too.
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire I thought it was better than the first. Although, that isn't saying much. The chemistry is lacking between the two main stars. The supporting cast shines though. The movie doesn't spend enough time on some of the more interesting elements, which I thought was a shame (
The ending wasn't really an ending. Crap shoot on whether you would enjoy this movie.
Hell on Wheels Season 3: Good season. I didn't think it was better than the first two seasons. I guess its because it kinda fizzles out towards the end of the season. The show seems to have gone back to square one. The acting and characters are still great. As are the set pieces. If you haven't see the show, I recommend giving it a watch. For fans of the show, I think S3 will disappoint.
the rebellion stuff or District 12/13).

So they released all 9 seasons? I see they had 1-6 a day ago or so and now 7-9? Bit odd releasing them that way. Anyways, my gf loves this show. I like some episodes but for most they're too sick for me.

The Errol Morris Rumsfeld doc is on the US service. I think it's called 'Known Unknowns' or some variation on the famous quote. I loved Fog of War so gonna watch it probably tomorrow. Well report back
She's the only reason why these movies stand out from the other YA dreck like divergence and that new maze runner thing.
Sums up my feeling. But jlaw really does a great job but the peeta guy is pretty bad. She's the only reason I watch and not in a 'she's hot' way.

Literally same, with the family warfare stuff. Great movie(s)
Too bad there isnt more America's Funniest Home Videos on Netflix, there is 5 38 minute episodes of It's tough being a kid and 5 38 min episodes of Animals with Attitude.
In other Jakncoke view news,
Spies of Mississippi was interesting
Mission Blue was decent
Hard Lessons was decent as well
Edit' Apparently have 13 eps of Kid Favorites as well, didnt show up on my instantwatcher search

I agree that Josh (Peeta) is bad, but I don't think Jennifer does that much of a better job. She comes off as stiff.
Canada has one season of the regular show (America's Funniest Home Videos).
Only got to watch the first half hour or so so far, but Unknown Known is already pretty interesting. Rumsfeld's demeanor and reasoning when confronted with Morris' questions is fascinating.
Sword Art Online. Its in japanese though. Watch the english dub on other sites

Sadly a lot of good anime on Netflix got removed over the years. It really is too bad that Gurran Legann, FLCL, Monster and others all got removed. If you can visit other
Right now there is:
Fullmetal Alchemist (Amazing! But many people prefer Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, I think both are incredible)
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood (however, the last 12 episodes are not up there)
Samurai Champloo
Things I haven't seen but have heard positive things about:
Welcome to the NHK
Death Note
Hunter X Hunter
Trigun
Noragami seems rated high for me but I don't know anything about that.
I've seen Attack on Titan and a lot of people seem crazy about it, so you might like it, but I consider it bad. Same for Sword Art Online but I've seen very little of that. And Kill La Kill I've also seen entirely but I didn't like it, it also has some fans though.

As someone who shunned anime for awhile until I got Netflix, I found these to be entertaining:
Attack on Titan
Samurai Champloo
Death Note
Knights of Sydonia
I finished those. I tried Kill La Kill, FMA Brotherhood, Soul Eater, Hunter X Hunter, Fate/Zero and Trigun but I couldn't keep going. I felt like an old man yelling at clouds watching those.
I'm curious about Psycho-Pass though, it's in my cue. Any good?

The ending for Catching Fire was close to how the book ends as well.
I agree that season three of Hell on Wheels is the weakest. I'd like to see them wrap the show up in the next season or two, instead of dragging it out and making it ridiculous like most shows tend to do.
I'd argue that the story for The Hunger Games is better, from a book perspective, and that is the difference but, I can't deny I like Jennifer Lawrence either.

I have now seen very little of it, but it is about a guy who does not want to leave his apartment and sees a conspiracy in everything. Seemed pretty good.
Canada should make their own funny home videos, damn lazy layabouts.
Soberly watched the 2 seasons of Wicked Tuna the past 3-4 days, its decent for a reality show. Side thought I've always wondered about these type of reality shows, is why they basically all have the same format of episode. aka usually a leader board, usually have 1 on 1 interview talked time in after an event is shown be it either a confrontation or one the characters does something.
Thank you! Can't wait for TWD.

Based on the other CW shows, I am assuming Arrow will show up 10/8 to coincide with the season 3 premiere. What about The 100?

Is Prowl any good? I'm always looking for a good vampire movie.
I checked out the trailer, looks like a b-horror movie.
This is the 3 Ninjas with Hulk Hogan right?

Both of those sound amazing. I really can't believe how much good TV is around us for such little money. It's mind boggling.
I'm hoping they do a Spanish original series for Latin america and their eventual expansion to Spain. There is a derth of quality drama in Spanish. Its all telenovelas. At least in America

Supposedly it will be available starting next weekend; S2 starts in a few weeks. I may give it a whirl.
Seems kind of wacky to pay so much for a major network show, which pretty much everyone can watch for free with an antenna and/or stream from NBC's site. Or is this one of those shows that doesn't have episodes available online?

I think it just has a few episodes on Hulu and that's it. It is a pretty popular show, especially for it being on NBC.

For some shows Hulu doesn't even give you access to past seasons anymore. Some shows also only give you the option of seeing the most recent 4-5 episodes that have aired. For example if I wanted to catch up on Arrow, only the final 5 episodes of Season 2 are available even for Hulu+. The number of ad breaks is also excruciatingly long.
Also, a lot of shows are now starting to lock online access to their shows behind cable subscriber credentials. Alongside that, unless you auth with those credentials, availability of episodes through their own apps or Hulu+ is delayed.
Basically the only reason I see to subscribe to Hulu+ is if you want to get HD streams and access through your TV. Hulu+ is really bad value IMO. Especially if you are already a cable TV subscriber and have access to devices with network tv apps (abc, nbc, fox, etc.) that already allow you to stream those same episodes.
