Is the US version of Being Human any good? I've only watched the first season of the UK one.

The British versions of these shows are almost always better.

Ron is so awesome.

My favorite part of last night's ep as well.
Also, West Wing is possibly my favorite show of all time but for sure top 3.

For Christmas my Gf got me a shirt with a black and white picture of Ron it saying "Give me all the bacon and eggs you have".

The West Wing seriously pushed Chuck and Firefly for that top spot. I still think having it in the top 3 is good though.
Have you ever seen Sports Night or Studio 60? Both are Sorkin shows. I like Sports night but I love Studio 60. It only lasted one season on NBC, but I thought it was really good.

Don't you mean wife? If someone got me a shirt like that I'd wife them in an instant.

I haven't went through the UK version because it would be too weird for me after watching the US one. I've read online that the first season is similar but the US one adds a few storylines. I think season 2 might start off as a distant echo to each other, but go in completely different directions. At least, that's the impression that I get, because I'm a mighty mighty bosstone.

Yeah I saw both shows and both are very good. I was so pissed they cancelled Studio 60 after one year. Anything Sorkin does is an immediate wacth for me. I can't wait until the HBO show he's going about the cable news network starts. It's going to be great.
Also, I feel like NBC has some bad luck or they must be doing something wrong with their promotions. They've had some very good shows come down the pipe the last 5 years and no one is watching. Studio 60 should have been a huge hit, they had big name stars, great writing, etc yet it failed miserably. They need to change something up.

That wasn't a list of "best" shows, it was a list of my favorite shows. Big difference. I love The Wire, but my favorite shows are Chuck/Firefly/The West Wing.

His HBO show is going to be the tits. And NBC doesn't have bad luck, they have stupid people running the network.
The funny thing is, Studio 60 was one of the most sought after pilots in network TV history, with NBC paying a near record fee to purchase it.. and they didn't promote it correctly and they had it on a stupid night with poor lead ins. Smart stuff fellas.

yesterday's episode of Spartacus was actually pretty sweet, save for the ****** CGI when the stands collapsed.
