TV New Season!

Spoiler

I don't disagree, but it will be interesting to see how they do the ending when everybody knows they haven't got a season 9 to sort it all out again. It seems like most of the team are going, with Taub requesting a transfer this week. I'm sure I read somewhere that Cuddy was making an appearance in the finale.

I thought the whole toilet-blocking thing was mighty stupid tbh. The fact that so much damage was done by a couple of bits of A4 is pretty laughable, and the fact that his prints were on them is sort of obvious (as his name was on them also) but anybody could've taken them or whatever. There would be *many* ways of fighting it but obviously they're not going to weigh down the finale with that (they had better not, anyway) appeals process. It felt like a very contrived way of bringing about this "back to jail while Wilson dies" situation, I'm sure they could've thought of a better way of him breaking his parole than some massively over-the-top (and out of character, even for House) prank.

House back in jail will be a cop-out, it needs to be bigger than that.

Spoiler

Cuddy will not be back but I think Cameron will. House could only live happily ever after if he lost his leg thus the pain. But House is not shiny happy. I bet on a House suicide after Wilson dies, or a House suicide to save Wilson. Either way House needs to die to end things properly anything else will be a cop out like you said.

Better late then never: just watching The Wire, SE1E1. First time.

It's awesome!!

Revenge has some terrible writing and some even worse acting but I just cannot stop watching it. It's awesome.

Spoiler

Uh-oh Nolan!

And another thing, how fucking old is Jack's dog supposed to be? Assuming that "flashback Jack" is 10 or 11 and Sammy is a pup, Jack must be late 20's or early 30's now. Golden Retrievers generally live 12 years tops but they can go for a bit longer. Sammy must be at least 18, no wonder he's popped his clogs.

House finale.

Meh.

House finale.

Spoiler

Meh.

The ghosts were like an earlier episode, House being drugged up and talking to himself was boring and this time we did not even have Cuddy Stripping. The ending was bullshit too him deciding that after all this time he can just change what a crock of shit. The writers should have kept it dark. Seeing some of he others come back was good, Cameron being back was he one good part.

 

[Lamp]

What are we supposed to watch whilst waiting for new seasons of Spartacus & GoT?

Futurama starts June 20. I've still got Boardwalk Empire to watch. I should probably D/L Homeland?

 

[megadave]

When does boardwalk return? Isn't breaking bad back next month? What about dexter?

Yup, when we learned Wilson had cancer I was thinking it was gonna be a very dark end and it should've been ffs. It's a pity they chickened out, they could've really gone out with a bang.

And did he kill that other guy? There was no explanation given as to how that guy went from being a patient to a corpse (unless I missed it, I haven't been bothered to go back and check tbh).

All in all though, House was (and still is) a fantastic show that petered out slightly towards the end (and then went out with a total whimper in the finale). I've *never* invested so much time in a procedural medical drama and I probably won't again. The earlier seasons are very watch-again-able.

megadave,

Breaking Bad S5 premiers on July 15th. The last 16 eps have been split into two 8-ep seasons and we dont get S6 until Summer next year.

Dexter usually runs from September through to December, S7 is down to premier on September 30th. Boardwalk Empire goes with similar dates and will be out later this year (September again, probably).

 

[soze]

Franklin and Bash is back on the 6th
True Blood is back on the 10th
Suits is back on the 14th
Leverage is back on the 15th July
Warehouse 13 is back on the 23rd July
Dexter and Homeland are both 30th September

And I love how easy SickBeard makes this

The other guy just Over Dosed I think. Like you I cba to go back and make sure. But you are right S1-S3 were great TV and I will watch them again one day.

Revenge, on the other hand; now that's how you do a (season) finale.

There were more cliffhangers in that one episode than most others shows have in their entire run.

 

[soze]

Revenge is a guilty pleasure and I just watched the last 5 episodes, they were great. I might be my favourite new show this season.

 

[Lamp]

Well, just finished watching episode 1 SE1 of Boardwalk Empire. Enjoyed it. Kind of Untouchables meets Sopranos. Steve Buscemi is a funny looking fella but I do like him.

Memo to self: watch Fargo again (he was ace in that)

 

[Hawkwind]

Just watched Ep 1 of Continuum, not bad for a cheap Sci Fi.

Forgive me but from reading IMDB isn't that just TimeCop by a different name?

I agree, surprisingly decent and it didn't look *that* cheap, in fact the SFX looked pretty decent.

The story is basically that in the future corporations bale out government and take over. Resistance groups fight back and a small group of them and 1 cop end up in 2012. I can see the parrallels but its not bad, certainly worth a look if your into Sci Fi.

Most of the shows the missus and I have been watching are at the end of their seasons.. Anything we could watch that isn't sci-fi or medieval? House, HIMYM, Big Bang, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Gossip Girl etc. have all been seen

Revenge and 2 Broke Girls from the new shows. If you like procedural dramas then NCIS is probably the best show about and there are plenty of seasons to catch up on. Also S2 of Suits is coming soon.

 

[Cerb]

If she is anything like my missus she will be obsessed with revenge.

If you're after a procedural for the missus I'd recommend The Good Wife, for the genre I think it's exceptionally well written and acted and easily the best of its type currently airing. Also I'll join in the rest of the macho men on this board and suggest the girly melodrama Revenge which seems ridiculously popular with everyone.

 

[Cerb]

Justified is just the best.

Almost finished season two....got 2 episodes left and its just brilliant!
