What episode are you on?


Just finished Season 2, Episode 1

That's around when I stopped watching.

When I've caught up with all the backlog of work for school and university, I might start watching The Knick.


You should really go back to House of Cards too. Season 3 was awesome. Also, Season 2 ends with (and I really don't think this is a spoiler) the iconic double-tap of the class ring on the desk that seems to be used on all Netflix original programming now. It sent chills up my spine.

The death in season 2 episode 1 felt so contrived and immersion breaking, I could not continue watching it.

I watched the first 4 episodes of Fargo season 2. It's awesome.

I've been seeing the trailers during American Horror Story and it seems really odd.

And I would just like to say, for the record, AHS: Hotel is not that bad. I'm not really digging Lady Gaga, but I like the references to the real-life serial killers.

I not only did see it coming, I was surprised the person involved didn't given:
A. Her line of work.
B. The facts she's uncovered.

That and the unrealistic manner of the situation made the entire thing unbelievable to me.

Sorry I mean Fargo season 2. It's very odd. I'm gonna rewatch season 1 while I'm waiting for new episodes.
Did you see Season 1?
I don't know if you'd like it or not. I'm surprised that I do. :lol:

No, I haven't seen any of the episodes. I'm trying not to get involved with any new shows. I feel like I already have enough to watch. If I ever do pick up a new TV show, though, that looks like the best candidate.

GOTHAM

They already busted Gallavan and they're not even done with the first half of the season. What the hell...? :eh:

The Flash

That Cisko couldn't conceive what I thought off immediately when saw the empty cell, that Dr. Light can probably refract light to make her invisible to the human eye.

THE FLASH

WhenZoom catches his lightning and throws it back...

Okay...that was silly. At least, the CGI...they could have used some effect to show him absorbing, conducing...etc, and redirecting it. Just catching it like it was solid, like a spear, was silly.

And the blondie-new-girlfriend-for-barry-police-chick even mentioned invisibility. Of course, Cisco couldn't have heard that, but he should have known. Especially from the discarded clothes. :naughty2:

The latest episode of Agents of SHIELD was just incredible, one of the best episodes they've ever done. I was worried that the show would collapse under too many storylines, but the writers are really doing an amazing job.

If it's only half as good as Daredevil, I'll watch the everliving fuck out of it.

If it's one fifth as good as Daredevil it will still be twice as good as Flash and three times better than Gotham.

Gotham is not Arrow bad, even if it's still unwatchable though.

I'll watch Arrow and Flash to pass the time while doing chores. Sometimes I even get excited. Daredevil was just plain great TV. Ani, you did a funny there and it was true too.

I completely forgot that exists. :oops:
