So many people are talking about "the Following" that I decided to check it out.
They had all 3 episodes on Friday night.
Although I didn't think it's as great as people make it out to be, it definitely has great potential.

New "Community" is wildly different. It can still be funny, but not for the reasons it used to be hilarious.

Girls is an incredible show. I just don't get how anybody can not like it. Past two episodes have been ******* great.

Decided to check out Supernatural because it's on Netflix and I see it talked about on here a lot. This is a very average show so far.

It starts off that way, but gets consistently stronger.

That was the first House of Lies episode I watched this year. I'm glad it was awesome. Also Roscoe's friend is the Psych kid so I got a kick out of that.

Honestly, it's cause I have zero interest in watching a naked Lena Dunham ***** about rich white girl problems.

I loved the opening scene with her parents, after that I've only seen the first few episodes. Didn't really get into it at all.

Don't ruin anything, but is that because the TV is skipping over a bunch of stuff or because the books are coming out slowly?

The books are coming out really slowly....it's a long running joke. You are so goddamn behind the times.

Hey, I have very little free time and the time I do have is not going to be spent researching books I don't even read.

HAha, Brody such an asss...or is it heel?
but a bit of both. Season 1 was all book 1, season 2 was a mix of books 2 and 3. Have to wonder if they start making a few things up. Books 2 and 3 have so much detail and action each can make their own season.
I'm sure this season still has some of 3 in it.
Also they say he Martin will die before he finishes the books. The first few that come out in the 90s were instant. Books 5 and 6 took fooooreeevver.

Patrick Wilson is a very good actor. Girls is still nothing special.

edit: The Hour was canceled by BBC.

The finale of 30 rock was so great. Rewatching it now until I have to head back in. "Making america ask TGS? What, why?"

You know what sucks more than Mighty Python? 30 Rock.

It's really hard to take your views on TV shows seriously when you watch The Bachelor! THE BACHELOR MAN! C'mon son!

I've never said the Bachelor is good television. But it is fun to watch all the crazy women and make snarky Tweets about how dumb the guys are for not seeing the crazy. For what the Bachelor is supposed to be, it does it well.
On the other hand, 30 Rock is supposed to be a comedy. But I watched entire season 4 of the show (along with a bunch of other episodes scattered across the series) and there were multiple episodes where I barely even chuckled. I find it hard to call a comedy good when it doesn't even make me laugh.

If you don't like a show you don't like it, but that doesn't mean it's a bad show. It just means that it isn't your cup of tea.
