Wanna bet?

But seriously I don't understand why he's on the show. Think of every character ever encountered on the show. They've all been really involved with the storyline. Which makes me think; why would the writers make this immaculate character's son an emotional pawn? It just doesn't make sense to me.

I don't know.. I thought they were all unique. The thing I liked was that no one was over the top omg super awesome. No invulnerability, etc, know what I mean? The powers themselves seemed like something more.. normal? I can't figure out how to describe it.

I don't like the main character but the rest of the show is ok. And I can't stand IASIP either, but that's because I don't find it funny. You claimed it was the best tv comedy of all time while I think there are comedies on right NOW that are better, and one of them is on the same network (Louie).

We all know who is going to die in season 4

yo123 · 07-14-2011, 01:01 AM

Skinny Pete can die.

Definitely. Badger has gots to stay. He's already been arrested, nothing much more can happen

Brodeur · 07-14-2011, 01:24 AM

You want to know why Badger can't die? HELICOPTER *****.

But yeah, go ahead and kill Skinny Pete.

As for you, Brody...You're gonna pay. You are the one who is ball-less. Michael C. Hall is gonna **** your mother while you watch and cry like a little *****. Once he gets to your house and finds, you, who is talking ****, he's gonna make you eat his ****, then **** out his ****, then eat your **** which is made up of his **** that he made you eat. Then, all you other ************* haters are next. Love, M.O.T.H. (Dexter Super Fan)

Mad Lib is fun.

The fact that people keep doing this blows my mind. I couldn't take Dexter seriously after the first five minutes of episode one when he compared himself to an empty donut box.

this entirely, s1 could of been great but the finale was soooo bad

Just recently started watching Deadwood. Pretty awesome stuff.

I might like Community better then IASIP at this point, but thats only because I think Community is currently funnier then the last few IASIP seasons. For me though, seasons 2-4 of IASIP are about as funny as television gets.

And Californication is my favorite show on TV, so I think we'll have to agree to disagree on that one. And I dislike all this Dexter bashing. Michael C Hall is going to murder all your faces!

That line was hilariously bad, so it works. "Just like me...empty inside." Here's Emmy Nominations by the way: http://www.imdb.com/features/emmys/2011/nominations

Dexter, Big Bang Theory, and Glee being nominated is absurd. WHERE'S MY LOUIE?

Cigaro · 07-14-2011, 11:21 AM

Louis CK got nominated for Best Actor.

Brodeur · 07-14-2011, 11:26 AM

I know that, but it deserves Best Comedy or at least consideration for it (if one thinks Parks and Recreation or Community deserves it, that works as well). Of course, Community isn't nominated either...

Hurricanes25 · 07-14-2011, 12:37 PM

Community, Joel McHale, and Nick Offerman were the biggest snubs,

Brodeur · 07-14-2011, 12:56 PM

I'd throw in John Noble, Don Glover, Cougar Town, H. Jon Benjamin for animated, Archer, and Danny Pudi. I just want to know who the **** keeps nominating Betty White, and why they glossed over the fact that season 2 of Glee was mediocre at best. I won't even go into the absurdness that is Modern Family's nominations.

Xiomera · 07-14-2011, 01:03 PM

Two actors from The Killing got nominated and neither one is named Joel Kinnaman? Blasphemy on two accounts!

Brodeur · 07-14-2011, 01:09 PM

Also, while I haven't seen The Killing (and am aware that people hate it right now), I would like to point out that it has already received more nominations than The Wire ever had.

SuperMcGee · 07-14-2011, 01:31 PM

Emmy noms are laughable, especially when looking at the "Best Supporting Actor in Modern Family" category. But I hope Margo Martindale wins.

Shut the **** up Modern Family is a good show.

It's pretty good, but nowhere close to Community, Parks and Rec, or even Cougar Town.
