I'm glad they're finally addressing it.

Yeah, Monroe and Rosalee need to bang already, but it looks like thats where its headed.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't stand Juliet. Ugh. I was hoping she'd just die. Her character has been so annoying.

And I have a feeling that Hank is about to find out all about it. The Grimm, vessen, Monroe, everything.

I had not completely dismissed the idea that they were vessen. I thought it was possible that they were just really in control of themselves, and his comment on that subject before taking the potion was a pretty heavy-handed confirmation of that. But it was still cool to find out for sure. I wonder what he is and what he looks like fully, uh, vessened. Maybe a male version of a Hexenbeist? Dunno. I agree he is not on the same side as his brother. There seems to be an overall direction his family is taking, and he has his own agenda. I would say he is somewhere between neutral and bad right now. Heh, if more people watched this show it would make a good Mafia theme.

Juliet is an obnoxious combo of oblivious idiot and entitled brat. Characters in shows like this should just be single, at least at first. I hate that she will be forced on us.

Juliet's amnesia is the perfect excuse to tell Hank. I was irritated that Nick chose to tell her instead of Hank, and figured once she fell into a coma she would somehow not remember Nick telling her anything. Hank has seen too much and will figure out that something is going on. Really Nick should've just told him last season. Once he adjusts I think he'll be fine and his character will improve.

Ok, my 2.23 :(

I hope Cross is right!

In a recent interview with Rolling Stone (and reported by SlashFilm), David Cross suggested that the new season of Arrested Development, currently filming for Netflix, could be expanded from 10 episodes to 13.

Cross, who plays Tobias "Banger in the Mouth" Funke on the series, said "I think it’s going to be 13 episodes, not 10. There’s too much story. Some characters will have two-parters. Everybody sort of participates, sometimes in a bigger way and sometimes in a tiny little thread that goes through everybody else’s stories."

Granted, this is just one actor's opinion, but if any hope can be scrounged up for MOAR Arrested Development, we're going to stubbornly cling to it.

I bet if stretch you could get to 7.11, without even having to tell a lie.

It's only the summer finale. It'll be back in the fall. Still lame though.

[Giantsfan1080]

Awesome and upsetting at the same time. The episode is going to put the crown on a great first half though.

Yeah. I haven't been able to find the release date for the next half. I hope it stands up to stiffer competition though, or I hope that USA doesn't base their renewal prospects off of it.

Yeah, it really has been some kickass TV this summer.

edit: Just read that this episode will feature a new love interest for Mike. Argh, stop keeping him and Rachel apart god damnit.

I'm not worried at all about Suits being renewed.

And I am OK with keeping Mike's love life up in the air for a while.

USA doesn't seem to do in-season renewals often, so I'm not all that worried, but I do think the ratings could fall a bit if it's up against some real competition and not summer stuff.

Is Homeland good?

I've heard good things but I haven't seen it yet.

[Bert Macklin]

I think I'm going to download it. About to start Franklin and Bash season 2. Pretty excited about that.

[comahan]

I watched most of Homeland last month. My expectations were probably too high going in, cause I wasnt huge on it. The acting is great, but I never REALLY got into the show, and episode 9 sort of killed any desire I had to finish the season.

Maybe the last 3 episodes are amazing and would completely change my opinion though, who knows.

[fenikz]

ya you dont get an opinion until you finish it :p

it's solid to good better than most things on tv so i'd say watch it

I'm behind on Justified, so I can't comment. But that's a good list of top 4, otherwise.

Alphas was kinda weird this week but still good. I'm wanting more Kat, it's time to get her out of the office and in to the field. I mean she can obviously hold her own she all ready whooped Bill's ass.

Haha yeah. I actually hope they find a way for her to retain her memories.

On a side note, does it seem like Rosen is starting to unravel a bit? He asked Nina to use her power for not so good things because he really wants to get Stanton Parish.. but at what point are they just as bad as him?

Ya, Rosen is getting a little bit obsessed with Parish. I felt bad for Nina he pretty much guilted her in to using her powers. I mean she really couldn't say no with her trying to get back in everyones good graces.
