They don't end seasons, they just set up for the following one. If they ended on episode 11, it would actually make more sense.

The Michael J. Fox one, or the MTV one? Because I've only seen neither.

Teen Wolf with MJF is a masterpiece.

They really need to throw out the garbage and focus on show fundamentals, because they seem to feel the need to throw in a new plot twist (for no reason) every week.
But, I think you and I are hating that episodes for different reasons.
I'm probably the only one here, but I don't really understand why Olivia Munn is on the show. She isn't a good actress and she isn't really attractive. Her fanbase loves her because she talked about games and doesn't have a *****.

I just caught up on Newsroom and I enjoyed the first season. It can certainly be much better. There are just way too many plot twists as descendency said.
I actually think Olivia Munn has done a solid job acting on the show. Quite surprised.

Munn has been looking good the past couple of episodes. I thought all of the main females looked good in this one, especially.
That's all I really have to comment on, right now. The show just doesn't stand out to me. Sam Waterston is awesome, though.

Caught the finale last night and I thought it was pretty good. Sure it had it's 'Sorky' moments but all in all it wasn't a bad way to go out. Hopefully next season will improve upon the first though.

I couldn't care less what Munn talks about. She'd definitely attractive and she's done a good job on Newsroom. I've never even watched her on anything else before.
2nd episode of Copper was very good.

Did anyone else think McKenzie made the girl from Northwestern ask that question? I couldn't tell if that's why they were implying last night or not.

The Newsroom was good. I guess it is expecting too much for the love rhombus to be over. But it seemed like it finally came to a resolution. Now that the tabloid is gone I'd bet that the gossip columnist is going to join the crew as well.

I will probably watch The Newsroom tonight at some point. I feel like I am alone in my dislike for Sam Waterston. I find his character annoying and unrealistic. Jeff Daniels really makes the show for me.
True Blood really does not know how to end a season. They are so ******* awful at it. I actually enjoy the show. The show can be really unintentionally hilarious and I love anything with Eric, Jason, and Jessica. What a ******* anti climatic way for Russel ******* Edgenton to die. At times this season his character was great but I found most of the time anything with him fell flat. I also hate every ******* scene with Alcide or any ******* werewolf. I think at this point I watch the show for the same reason I watch The Walking Dead, dumbed down entertainment that is very much mockable. Despite all of True Bloods flaws though I still find it is a better show than The Walking ******* Dead although I am sure all the gratuitous violence, language, and nudity helps.

Well ya, that too. I think we can all agree that The Walking Dead is a dumbed down pile of **** that should be so much better than it is. That is what you get when you writers room consists of mongoloids. I mean how the **** else where they able to so successfully butcher the translation to TV of a great graphic novel series about zombies?

I just look for any excuse to butcher that show and its writers, I'm a Dbag. Out of the few episodes I watched of true blood, I would say its only slightly better. I can critique TWD much better because I'm fully caught up.

The fact that it is on HBO helps a lot. Also, True Blood has more than one great character. TWD is just ******* awful. I have to think they sit around and think about how to write the dumbest show possible and it pains me to talk to people who say The Walking Dead is the best show on television. At the same time I always have fun breaking down why the show is awful and asking why they like it. I understand entertainment is subjective but I have yet to get a real reason. Just 'It's badass' and '******* zombies and ****'. Ugh, **** people.

Yeah I ask people who they like for characters and they just reply "Well, the asian guy was cool before he got whipped this season".

Glenn is still awesome! But honestly I think HBO would have done a better job with TWD. It has strayed so far away from the comics that it is barely the same story anymore. I also know that way to many scenes from the prison story line are going to be changed.

The thing is, the asian guy wasn't even that cool, he was just surrended by one of the worst casts in the history of television.
