Final season of Prison Break was pretty oof.
I'm watching season 3 of Breaking Bad. Also watching The Tudors with a friend I never see.. think I'm on season 3 of that as well.
Slow at watching stuff, no time for TV = good thing.

Final season of Prison Break was pretty oof. that's what I keep hearing, but so far it's not terribly bad. i don't have great expectations for it, so maybe that's why it's not letting me down. i hate jodi lyn o'keefe, however. just saw the episode where they break through the minefield/steel wall/glass wall to get Scylla. the scene where they're breaking in/assembling it all in complete silence was great.

oh yeah, I forgot I watched The Walking Dead. Cannot wait for the next season. Current favourite show.
Ryan, you and I are one and the same when it comes to Lost. Did you see the bonus scene from the season 6 DVD?

I like adult swim before I sleep. I like NFL football no matter the teams, or MMA no matter the promotional company / country-of-origin.
For shows, Justified is an amazingly well-written, acted, paced, shot, etc. law-crime drama I like. The whole cast is pretty much letter perfect, and it's based on Elmore Leonard short story and feel. Just getting to the last episodes of S2.
Archer is a spy-spoof cartoon, also in the second season... It's so dumb it's epic. And the reason I occasionally bring up sexy ninja ladies.
Walking Dead is a zombie-post apoc horror-drama based on a comic book. 1st season was OK, only the barest framework of the comic remains. Which is both good (story not written in stone so there's a lot of unexpected) + lame (cuz it would have been INSANE on HBO). S2 starts in June I think...
I kinda keep up on seasons of True Blood + Dexter. I checked out S1D1 of Witchblade, but it's pretty awful so far. And I'm in episode 1, or maybe the start of 2?

Jeremy Davies is in Justified? Interest is piqued. Is it a done-in-one type of show, or does the storyline flow through the episodes?

I watched the last season when it aired on tv... was not aware there was extra footage! A lot of people hated the shit out of the ending but I thought it was perfect. I've been wanting to go back and watch it front to back again but I can never find the time... plus I'm in the middle of doing that with Arrested Development (for the 1000th time) ... and I watch True Blood as well. Forgot about that one.

man, you totally need to see it. answers some more questions (some were obvious/already answered to those that actually paid attention) and just gets you stoked on the whole show all over again. it's like 12 minutes, technically two scenes. i've heard that it was cut from the finale due to time, but also that it was added on the DVD to appease fans, either way i'm glad it's there.
i thought the ending was great. it was too much to handle the first time through. but after the re-watch it showed just how good it actually was. though nothing really ever got as good/mysterious as season one. so much stuff is set up then for the rest of the show. season 4 might be favourite, though.
and I, too, have seen Arrested Development hundreds of times. I know that show front to back. really hope they do a film, even if it doesn't get wide release.

Generally, there's a storyline of the week, and then the big season arc for both characters and plot. It's not a show scared of killing off characters either.

I've been on a pretty big King of the Hill kick lately, I'll watch that whenever it comes on Adult Swim. I didn't used to like it but there's no doubt the characters are incredibly well developed. Aside from that, some notes to self: Watch more Archer, Eastbound and Down, and Shameless. All shows I've seen an episode or two of and liked a lot but my Internet addiction gets in the way of me doing other shit.

Last I heard they decided not to do it because it had been too long since the show... which makes me dislike michael cerra even more than i already do because he was the one holding out on making the movie for so long.

Last few nights I've fallen asleep watching Louie.

Family Guy is my favorite show on television. I know that's not cool. I'm also really into King of the Hill, Fraggle Rock, Spider-Man, X-Men, Batman: The Animated Series, Superjail, Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Eastbound and Down, the Office, Moral Orel, Arrested Development, Freaks and Geeks, the League, and I recently started watching Dexter. I'm on season four and that show rips.

It's not a show scared of killing off characters either. season arcs are what i'm after. will scope this out. If you like season runs, you will definitely dig Justified. It's like a season long Elmore Leonard novel where they don't have to cram it all into 90-120 entertaining minutes. I'm waiting on Walking Dead S2 too. Do you read the comics?

I can't keep series, I lost my attention span when I start to watch a finished one and I can't wait for the next episode if I'm following a broadcsting one... So I pass on them. I don't watch these kind of stuff at all, the only exception is my MANIACAL passion for simpsons. I watch each episode about 3-4 times in a row XD

Do you read the comics? excellent. i've bookmarked it for download. not sure if it will be what i go to next or not. i might take a break, been watching something at least twice a day for the past 4 months... I've never read the comics, never been much of a comic guy, Ann's read them though and she's into it (she urged me to check the show out... coolest woman.)
