Huh. Noted. I guess people slaver over shows worse than this, but good to know it isn't super deserved.

So far there hasn't been a season that I thought was great all the way through. They'll have some interesting plot lines, but then it tends to slow down and spin its wheels for a while with boring characters or stories that don't go anywhere.

With the exception of maybe the pilot, Walking Dead has never been "brilliant," IMO. It never has been (and likely never will be) in that top tier of dramas because the writing and acting rarely rise above average. this. it's pretty generic stuff and it doesn't do its characters justice. Pretty mediocre writing too, but they've had three showrunners in four years.

I loved the first season of TWD and it just fucking falls apart the second season. A lot like Community.

Stop with the Don't Trust the B hate! the episodes from the season 2 production order are all terrific, and the season 1 episodes can be a little rocky but it's still pretty fun. you'll have to look at Wikipedia to see what the right episode order is, because the airing order is a complete mess.
I don't really have any shows to binge watch right now, but on a weekly basis I'm watching (in order of importance) Misfits, American Dad, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Sleepy Hollow, Revenge, Parks & Rec and American Horror Story. I also just watched the new Cartoon Network show "Steven Universe" yesterday and it's pretty fucking cool. Masters of Sex is also very good so far, but I'm pretty far behind on it

All caught up with Community! Didn't hate season four! Want more episodes! Except I think I saw Donald Glover isn't coming back, is that true? Cause that bums me out.
I started Orphan Black. I'm intrigued and like it but it's not the type of show I want to be watching so I'm not super drawn in right now. Community got me in the mood for other half hour comedies. Gonna keep going though.
Nick how far are you on Orange?

Only three episodes, but I looooooooooove it.
I never really got the vitriol for season four of Community. There were weak episodes, but I never thought it was horrible. And yeah, Donald Glover is leaving.
In other news, I'm getting the itch to rewatch all of Archer.

I don't know why I have never watched Archer but I need to change that.

I agree. I think understanding my Archer references and quotes would give our relationship a nice little boost tbh.

I love K&P. They work so hard to make each character and situation different.
Can't post about K&P without the best sketch

Finished House of Cards last night, what an ending. Season 2 can't come soon enough.
Also, I'm on call all next week which means I'm staying in Colorado Springs alone and can't leave my house really. Which means I'll be watching a fuckton of TV and playing a lot of video games. Anybody got any recommendations? I downloaded the first two seasons of Homeland last night after hearing it was incredible from my parents. I've got Netflix and HBO Go at my disposal too.

YOU DONE MESSED UP A.A. RON INSUBORDINATE! AND CHURLISH! pretty sure that is my favorite K&P sketch, but the East-West bowl is awesome too. I started watching Psych a while ago and I like it wayyyy more than I thought I would. Ran through the first two seasons in like a week. been meaning to catch up on Sons of Anarchy, The League and It's Always Sunny since their seasons ended recently.
