Been watching Code Monkeys on Netflix. Wasn't a fan of the pilot, but a few episodes in and it's ridiculous and hilarious. Like Grandma's Boy: The Animated Series or something.
I couldn't get into The Shield or Battlestar Galactica. To be fair, I barely gave them a chance, but who gives a shit.
I started watching a show called 'The Wire', perhaps you've heard of it. About halfway through season 1 and I'm starting to wonder why I waited so long to watch it.
Success.

Seen Serenity yet? It gives a bit of closure though you'll just want more of the Firefly universe.

Started watching Rome for the first time. I'm a few episodes in. It's been sort of an odd experience; my introduction to this show comes in the midst of my revisiting Spartacus: Blood and Sand. Spartacus explores social intrigue, sex and violence through a lens of heightened reality, while Rome's presentation is steadfast in its authenticity, almost stark by comparison. The contrast in tone would be difficult to exaggerate. This is an observation, not a complaint. I'm enjoying Rome and I intend to watch both seasons.
Started on Californication season 1. At episode four right now, and I am having a hard time sympathizing with Hank. Maybe it was meant this way, in which case, kudos! Still watching due to the incredibly hot women though. Hank's ex looks the best so far imo, but there's plenty of eye candy to go around.

Michael J Fox was on The Good Wife this week playing a sneakily brilliant handicapped lawyer and that wasn't even the best part. The ongoing circling between Kalinda and Blake (Scott Porter, formerly Jason motherfucking Street of FNL) topped that, with Kalinda beginning to comprehend the trouble she's found herself in and revealing fear for something like the first time ever. 'Twas also fun to watch Alan Cumming play the consummate political animal, managing to leak potentially damaging information of an opponent to another opponent and dodge the resulting fallout. This season keeps delivering.
Well, you'll have Carla Gugino to look forward to, along with the rest of us, when you catch up.

Yeah, it's pretty hard to sympathize with Mia at all after that ending. And Rocketman playing over Hank's confession to Karen was genius. The silver lining is that Hank's career will probably be back on track next season - it'll be interesting to see how they play that on top of the usual family and womanizing drama.

Predictable because so many tv shows and movies have copied it?
You've reminded me that I need to give the show a rewatch. From memory Many Happy Returns is one of my favourites too.

I've already got it on DVD unforunately, I'd only buy it on bluray if the difference is a big one (and if the price is right). Maybe one day.
Also, I've gotten into The Big C the past few days, watched 7 episodes so far and I'm completely in love. It's infectiously fun and hilarious, and Laura Linney is giving possibly her best performance yet. It also hasn't managed to descend into preachy cheesiness yet, which is impressive for a show about a woman dying of cancer.
So, it's basically Breaking Bad's plot except about a dying women taking life by the balls and having as much fun as she can, instead of all the drug making and murder.

The Prisoner was so far ahead of its time. Everyone should check it out.
I've been meaning to check this out for a while. LOVE Laura Linney. Possibly her best performance, you say? MUST WATCH.The Storyteller said:

5th season is incredibly good. You should be looking forward to "Changing Channels" (I believe it's the 8th or so episode), definitely the funniest episode of the show.
I watched the Season 2 finale and the Season 3 premiere of Fringe yesterday. (one day before it expired on Hulu, yay) Awesome. The show is actually a little like Supernatural in that it increased in quality consistently from its start. (I'm not sure about Supernatural S6 yet, all I know is that it's definitely not bad)
Oh yes, and John Noble is so, so good as Walter. In "Grey Matters",
when his memory is restored and he's old Walter again for a few seconds, that might be one of my favorite pieces of acting on television ever. ("What are you doing in my home?") Also Walternate is a badass.

prisoner is highly dated imo.
it has a couple of great episodes with a lot of mediocre filler.

Yeah, I'm quite convinced most people on this site have no frakking idea what constitutes as filler. You missed the whole point of the show, just fyi.
Lafiel said:Just finished Mad Men Season 3. That was one incredible finale (along with the other three episodes that came before it), now on to season 4.
Season 4 continues the awesomness (however, I do prefer season 3).
