Luther Season 1. Turned out to be one of my favorite shows ever, like EVER.
Just finished Lost a few days ago. I'm so late to the party that the house in which the party took place now has new owners.
I started it earlier this year while in the US and finished season four, but then had to leave. So I ordered the Blu Ray complete collection a week ago.
While I'm waiting for Big Bang Theory and Castle to resume, I haven't really watched much else, besides the pilot of Breaking Bad.

My favourite 'one and done' ever. I keep recommending it to people, and everybody who actually watches it loves it, but so many are put off by the fact it was cancelled, believing that to be a bad sign about its quality (these are the same people who adore Arrested Development and Party Down, and hate many of the most 'successful' shows on TV!)
The chemistry between all the characters was outstanding, the overall arc was intense and thrilling, the writing was witty and compelling at the same time, and the theme tune was an instant classic. I genuinely can't believe FX didn't give it more time given how much they owe Shawn Ryan for their current profile in original dramas.

Which episode are you on? I'm currently going through Justified as well (just finished season 1) and I had similar feelings about the first...half...of season 1. The pilot was good, but the next few episodes were lacking. If it doesn't improve by around episode 7 or 8, it might not be for you. It does get much better though.

That's right about where I am. I find the overall story of the show as interesting, it's just that some of the episodes are a little weak. I don't know...maybe I am just being weird. I went to wikipedia and looked at the episode synopsis' for the ones I have seen and I like a lot more than I remember haha....has anyone else noticed there are 2 True Blood actors who were on the show? The
judge who wears speedo's was Eddie (the gay vampire) from season 1 and the ex-wife of the bank robber where they dig up the floor boards in random houses plays Pam, Eric's assistant.

Someone console me, I decided to like Breaking Bad on Facebook and the pricks posted some Season 4 wallpaper on my news feed with a massive spoiler in it 
Don't want to elaborate too much in case I might've been mistaken and someone proves me right DAMMIT. Everything ever has always been spoiled for me.

Justified Season 2 episode 4:
Episode 5:
Episode 6:
Episode 7:
Yeah, there are also a lot of people from Lost and Deadwood. Ava is really hot. Much hotter than Winona.
Great intro with the Bennett family picnic thing. I like that Raylan gave the kids there "Justice is coming" coins. lol Can't wait to find out how Dickie got his limp. It seems to have something to do with the Bennett/Givens family history...I wonder what happened exactly?
An episode that finally goes more in depth with Rachel! Good stuff. The stuff with the Furby was strangely heartbreaking. At the end, when it got shot and was crying out in Chinese, was...hilariously sad.
The magician guy was crazy. His line about not being able to do magic anymore was great.
Great episode.

Episode 5:
The return of Dewy Crowe. Every time he shows up, I assume it's his last episode. How does he keep staying alive?
Great stuff with Boyd. The use of the cell phone as an eavesdropping tool was really clever. Ava not finding the his note immediately seemed a little tense-for-tense-sake. It was too obvious. The rest of the stuff was good. Not only is Boyd great at planning well in advance, he's also great at winging it.
Great stuff with the Bennetts again. Mags is just totally cold and matter-of-fact. She had no qualms about smashing her begging son's fingers. What are they up to though? They keep hinting at something bigger, but are always so vague.
The final scene with the little girl selling weed was good too. I hope they don't save the Raylan cellphone thing for the finale though. Calling him at the last minute sort of thing. That would be cliche.
Another great episode.

Episode 6:
Very tense opening scene with Boyd, Ava and the ATF agents.
Stupid Winona. And of course as she's leaving the bank to return the stolen bill, there's a robbery. Really?
Other than that...I liked the scene at the end with the old guy and Art.
Just an OK episode.

Episode 7:
They're really going to make this stolen money thing into something bigger? "I forgot the corner was ripped, sry! O ya I stole the entire bag 2 lolz!" They form a plan to try and put the--now found--bill back into the vault, but of course things go awry. The scene where the judge is trying to make Winona give the bag of money to the assistant was pretty awful. Raylan offers to take it, BUT! he's suddenly needed in Art's office! The following scenes where the guy in a bomb suit is juuuust about to open the bag but he gets the order to drop everything was...just so contrived. Everything regarding the mission to return the stolen money felt a bit contrived. At the end, the money is returned, but now Art is on to them, or soon will be. Hopefully their handling of the rest of this plot line is better than what we've gotten so far.
Boyd getting a new job as a security guy is very interesting. At first it seems as if he's just a bodyguard but then, at the end, it seems like the red headed woman he works for wants him to do...other things. They're being very vague about what's happening here though. About what exactly happened with the boulder killing the guy and his people suing the mining company. There's something about clean coal. The Bennetts, who have been absent for the last two episodes, are involved somehow. Just tell us what's happening already.
Overall it was a good episode. And while some of the scenes/plot felt a bit contrived, it was very tense.

Just finished burning through S1 and 2 of Parks and Recreation on Netflix. What a fucking great show, it reminds me so much of the brilliance of The Office S2 and 3. Excellent cast, plus the entire background community they've managed to build. And most of all, Andy/April scenes are just heartmelting-ly good.
Gonna start my Hulu Plus trial soon so I can start streaming S3.

Just finished Season 2 of X-Files and started on season 3. End of Season 2 and beginning of season 3 was really good. Overall, I thought season 2 was great and can't wait to get into more.
CrazyDude said:
Yep, really could have used a lot more. I think HBO ultimately thought it was too costly so they scrapped it. Truly a shame. The Mark Antony & Cleopatra stuff in particular took a serious hurting due to those extreme time constraints.
I've personally been on a big sword & sandal'ish kick recently. Went through Rome, then Spartacus and its prequel season, and just recently ran through Game of Thrones. All three shows in less than a month. And I still want more, haha.
Edit: I also have to mention that it's amusing seeing all the reactions to the nudity and gore in Game of Thrones. After going through Spartacus, I'm as desensitized to that stuff on TV as I'll ever be. Game of Thrones doesn't even approach it.

I've been watching Reaper and Extras.
I liked the first two episodes of Reaper, but I'm concerned that it's going to be very formulaic like House ended up being. I really, really hope the show doesn't boil down to the kid juggling a crappy job, a crush, and his friends while sending a soul back to Hell every episode.
Extras is brilliant and it's probably one of the best comedies created in the last decade. Gervais' spectrum of comedy never ceases to amaze me. Not above a fart joke and not beneath a witty one liner.

Finished watching Fringe Season 1 and 2. Damn was I right to stick with this show. Season 1 was a little rough at the beginning, but after a certain point I really got hooked. The characters really started to grow on me as well. John Noble was amazing as Walter Bishop. Sucks I have to wait till September to get the Season 3 Blurays.
I did get something spoiled early on though, which really pissed me off.

I went to IGN to see a game review, and there on the top of the page was this huge banner saying, "What lies in store for Fringe?" And I immediately noticed there were two Walters in the picture. I was half way through season 1 when I saw this too. Fucking spoilers.

Fringe is probably the best show on network television right now. I appreciate that they tried to replicate what The X Files did with Monster of the Week episodes and an overall mythology, but what worked for The X Files sadly worked against Fringe. It's interesting to imagine how ratings would be if Fringe was either all mythology episodes or all Monster of the Week type episodes. I never felt that Olivia or Peter were interesting enough characters for the show runners to alternate between the two types of episods like Mulder or Scully were.
Has anyone been watching Love Bites on NBC? I had been DVR'ing it since the pilot but didn't start watching the recordings until last week.
I must say, it's pretty funny and I dig the structure - 3 mini 'episodes' per week ... a set of loosely related characters going about their lives with the occasional interaction ... lots of cameos

The rest of Justified season 2:
Overall, Justified is now one of my favorite TV series. The first season was good and the second was incredible. Now the wait begins for the third season.
Episode 8 was good. The church meeting scene was really great. Raylan, Boyd and Mags all got great speeches. WTF @ the creature in the bag. It sounded scary, and it looked like Coover and Dickie were going to stick Boyd's head in there. Seriously, one of the most cringe inducing scenes of the series. Thank goodness Ava came to the rescue.
Episode 9: The Bennett whoop-dee-doo was great. From the tense meeting of Mags, Boyd and Carol, to the gleeful dance of Boyd and Ava. Everything was great. Thank goodness they didn't save the phone call thing for the finale. Coover is crazy and I thought he killed Dickie at first. Too bad he didn't. The whole scene where Raylan is struggling with Coover over the mine shaft was really well done. It was a relief when Raylan shot him.
Episode 10: What a great opening scene between Art and Raylan. Followed by a great scene between Mags and Helen. Johnny returns, yes! The shootout at the end was pretty cool, too bad Winona wasn't killed.
Episode 11: Poor Rachel, had to stay with Gary and Winona overnight. And it turns out Gary put a hit on Winona in order to collect the insurance money? Whatever dude. They really belong together. Belong off the show, that is. The scene between Ava and Helen was great. There was a certain finality to it somehow...Holy shit. No. They killed off Aunt Helen.
Episode 12: Incredible opening sequence with the slow mo and muted audio. The funeral was so sad. Goodness. The scene where Raylan is seemingly going to execute Dickie in the moonlit forest was great. His slobbering plea was really sad, and you almost wanted Raylan to spare him. I'm not particularly a fan of Jeremy Davies, but he really did a good job here.
Episode 13: The parley (parsley? parsnip?) scene with Mags and Boyd was really great. I totally guessed Johnny's house blowing up, though not when it did. I thought it would blow up when he was first going inside. Ava doesn't seem to have much of a problem with Boyd's criminal activity, aside from hookers. It's no surprise, given that she never mentioned having problems (or did she?) with her dead husband's dealings. Her getting shot blows, and I hope she isn't dead, but sooner or later, with the way she carried around that shotgun, I figured she would take a bullet.
Winona is pregnant. Great. So the scene in episode 2, where Raylan is rubbing her stomach was a bit of foreshadowing on the writers part. Not sure how I feel about that, other than wanting Winona to die in childbirth. Hopefully they don't throw some stupid twist in, like it being Gary's baby. The scene where she begs Raylan not to go back to Harlan was good.
I didn't ever expect Dickie to become the destructive force he became. Shooting Ava, killing his two recruits, killing Helen, etc. I didn't really think he was capable of those things. The baseball/pinata scene with Raylan was great. And that was the final scene of the season for Boyd. Interesting. Raylan showing up at the Bennett's house, which is surrounded by guys, with only Dickie to use as a shield, was ballsy. A bunch of machine guns fired right there at Raylan and he's only slightly wounded? lol And somehow after all of that, Dickie is still alive!
Doyle got what was coming to him: a sniper bullet to the apricot, courtesy of Tim. Art and the rest of the marshals rushing in to save the day at the end was a bit cliche, and it didn't make a whole lot of sense given Art's insistence that Raylan was on his own. Considering that the last scene with Art, before that, was the one with Winona, I'm assuming she told him all about the stolen money; that it was all her fault and that she got Raylan involved.
Those final scenes. Holy shit. Incredible. I struggle to articulate my thoughts on those final scenes.
Loretta pointing the gun at Mags:
Raylan: What would your daddy want you to do?
Loretta: I want him here to tell me!
Oh. My. God. I'm getting a little choked up just typing that out. lol What an incredible scene. Then Mags and Raylan drinking the apple pie....I knew someone would get poisoned, but I honestly didn't even consider that Mags would poison herself. I thought the season would end with Raylan getting poisoned, and since there was an ambulance already there, I figured he would be saved just in time. But when I realized she was poisoning herself and talking herself through it, just like in the first episode, my mind was blown. She played that scene out so well.
Other thoughts:
Glad Carol is gone; hopefully she's off the show for good.
It's great that Rachel got a backstory and more screen time, as well as Art, but Tim was still sort of left out in the cold. I figure they'll give him an episode next season.
The girl who played Loretta is a great actress, which is unusual for a child. She should get some sort of award or something. Speaking of awards, someone give Margo Martindale one as well. What an unforgettable performance.
Episode 9: The Bennett whoop-dee-doo was great. From the tense meeting of Mags, Boyd and Carol, to the gleeful dance of Boyd and Ava. Everything was great.

I'm going to be picking up Season 3 of Damages this week. I really like that show, but with no DirecTV, I need to wait for DVD's now I guess.

Exactly. I really wasn't a fan of season 1, but stuck with it and later seasons are much better IMO. It still is what it is, though. It's not The Wire or The Sopranos, etc.
As for Curb, glad you're enjoying it. Wish I got to watch the latest season last night, but my tuning adapter decided to not work so no HBO last night. Stupid TiVo. So getting rid of it and it's random issues.

I finished watching Six Feet Under recently.
Great show. I knew nothing about it before watching it. I saw Dexter right before Six Feet Under so it was strange seeing Michael C. Hall as an emotional character at first haha.
As much as I liked it, seasons 3 and 4 (and 5 to a lesser extent) seemed way too different than the amazing first two seasons. A lot of plot points stretched out for far too long and felt melodramatic. But the good outweighed the bad.
The "that's not my dog" scene in season 4 was... Holy shitttttt.
And the finale was amazing. The last scene caught me off guard.

6 episodes in and I'm still waiting for the awesomeness that is supposed to be Friday Night Lights season 3. So far its just been filled with rampant stupidity from just about every character.
I really wish someone would shoot Mopey Matt in the face. Hopefully he grows a pair at some point.

The anime series Noir:
Overall the series was decent. Great atmosphere and music. Everything else was just OK.
Nothing too great. It took forever for the story to get going; at around episode 10 of 26. The eyecatches are super annoying; they're very loud and grating. There are an insane amount of flashbacks, at least 5 per episode, which is totally unnecessary. The overarching conspiracy/storyline is pretty cool, but they take way too long getting to it, and when they finally do, the series ends.
