Hearing all these good comments on Mr. Robot has me regretting not watching from the start, so I'll have to try and binge-watch at some point.

Season 2 was a turd. Don't waste your time

I can't even get through season 1 of True Detective. It's soooooo slooooooow and kinda boring.

I can see that with the first two or so episodes. It takes a few episodes to get used to the show's pacing and it doesn't really pick up until episode 3.

Two great Amazon pilots that I previewed a while back are finally going to see a whole season see the light of day.

Hand of God on 9/4

I will never watch Hand of God because I hate that half-evolved looking asshole from SOA.

It was a great final season IMO for Falling Skies. I binge watched the hell out of it last week :D

Watched the pilot of The Bastard Executioner last night. It was two hours long. The first hour you're trying to piece together everything that is going on as there are a LOT of characters introduced. In the middle of the pilot things really ramp up and get brutal. Things started clicking for me from that point on as we see the point of what is going on. Overall I was pretty impressed with the pilot and definitely going to keep going with it. But that's no surprise for anything that Kurt Sutter has his hands on.

That EW article helped in filling in some holes and answering some questions.

The Muppets is definitely different than the old show. I think it is still pretty good though.

I've enjoyed the first two episodes. They've gotten me to laugh a number of times so I'm gonna stick with it. First network TV show I've actually watched in a long time.

This will probably go down as well as JB and CDJ playing Hannah Montana for the achievements. Netflix just added the second season of Reign. It is my dirty pleasure, as I try to avoid anything CW related. I am a sucker for historical shows, especially British and Europe. It is a story about Mary the Queen of Scots. That much they got right, Mary was the Queen of Scots. Everything else is up for grabs. This was created for the kids out there with a TV viewing habit that rose just above watching those Teen Mom shows. Did not have a clue about this going in but for some reason the show stuck. Silly story, followed by a bunch of pop centric music customized to fit the time period. Yet here I am binge watching season 2 now that the college games for the week are done. It does have Nostradamus in it and the lead actress that plays Mary is cute as a button. The back and forth between Mary and the pre-Mary French Queen are the highlight of the show.

There's still 10 minutes left in the Oregon-Colorado game. ;)

Colorado still in the Pac-12? They really need to add a promotion/relegation system in college football.

Edit: Relegation, not demotion. :fp:

I'm behind on episodes, but love the adult content they slide in there, like the band being able to relax legally :D

The entire karaoke scene from Tuesday night. Swedish Chef is still the best part. I want a video of just him and only him singing Rapper's Delight. :D

Blacklist. I was hesitant about watching this. Not a big fan of Spader but after binge watching the first two seasons, color me impressed. Did not see the twist coming at the end of season two. Now I need to catch up on season 3 and add it to DVR list.

Final season of Peep Show starts next week in Britain. Hopefully it hits over here soon, preferably on Netflix as they have all the other season. First 8 seasons are here.

Not The IT Crowd funny but easily worth a watch.

Finally catching up on Gotham on the tail end of the first season and yeah I kinda geeked out on the first conversation between Nigma and Cobblepot.

I thought season one was amazing, but then again I'm a huge Batman fan.

I'm a huge Batman fan too but the way they did season 1 turned me off. Didn't like how they introduced so many characters and most of them were 1 maybe 2 episodes plots and then onto the next thing. However season 2 is pretty much a season long plot and it's much better imo.

That and I've finally come to realize that this is just a completely different take on anything Batman and that has helped me like it much better.

I will say I hated how they finished the last week's episode. I didn't watch last night so I can't comment but:

Spoiler: show
I was glad when Barbara fell out of the window thinking that her storyline and any chance at reconnection with Jim was over... but then at the end of the episode "doh, she fell on some bushes".

That is network TV in a nutshell. One or two episode arcs for a story with the bigger picture fused in.
