That's correct.

I'll give season 2 a shot whenever we get it, but I think I posted this in here during my initial watch: I have no clue where they go from here. Watching season 1 I always thought it was going to be 1 and done until the last episode.

I've never seen Axelrod from Billions in anything else, but this guy (not the character) makes my skin crawl. Those beady soulless eyes, his weird voice...cant stand him

[thebridge15]

you should check out band of brothers

Woah. Band of Brothers? Homeland?

[DMBstandUP1984]

my wife won't watch Billions because she hates Axelrods face, she had a hard time getting through Homeland because of it.

Well right on cue with the Bloodline chat...May 27th.

Meanwhile, my wife is in LOVE with Damien Lewis. She was getting all hot and bothered while watching Homeland.

I like Maggie Siff.

Cuba has been been just ok
Schwimmer sucks. he literally has one expression- a mix of confusion, disbelief, and insecurity. Probably because he's confused and in disbelief of how his acting career has made it so far, just like the rest of us
Cochran actor is killing it
Travolta is killing it- people keep saying he's polarizing, but I don't see how

thank you!

My wife likes the Scott Foley

Watched season 1 of "Love" in one night. Enjoyed it for what it was. Apatow has those hyper real uncomfortable moments where you wanna smack the lead character and call them an idiot, but that's what keeps me hooked. It's vulgar and awkward, but that's what makes it great.

[TwoStep2888]

just found out the final season of Peep Show is on hulu, I'll be watching that tonight

[WidespreadMule3]

Last season of Louie got put on Netflix so I started rewatching it and it is fantastic. I love how subtle the humor is but it comes out in such a big way. This show has to be one of the best comedies ever.

[TheLastStop123]

started watching community this week as my new "late night quick watch show" and I'm really enjoying it so far.

The first 3/4 of the first season is meh but after that it's just amazing until S4. There are some amazing episodes of TV in that series.

I really liked it. But yeah it really takes a nosedive at some point.

Damn that's strong praise. I like the show a lot but it's not in my top 10 comedies.

I keep meaning to get around to checking that out. is each season based on a particular book? I might've already talked about this in the past, but that's one of the main properties where, when I was still with Verhoeven back in 2001 or so, in the offices we were told to look into several Michael Connelly novels because PV was heavily considering doing a Harry Bosch feature film adaptation. At the time I was thinking Clooney, but now with doing it in TV format, I think Titus Welliver was a solid choice.

Yup....each season is a different book. I enjoyed season 1 more, but season 2 was pretty solid as well. No one I know watches it, so it will be good to talk about with someone......so watch it!

I mean, to each his or her own, I just find it brilliant. To me, it's up there with Seinfeld.

Saw a trailer for a new show starting on SyFy called Hunters. Looks good.

Starts on April 11th, I believe

I'm in the middle of the latest OJ episode, the one all about the jury... well again, since I never really followed all that closely when it was actually happening, totally didn't realize how many people were switched out in the middle. But one particular thing occurs to me, the ones that did get dismissed because of whatever falsehood on their paperwork, or whatever other reason, would these people not be like beyond ecstatic that they were getting kicked off? I mean who LIKES being on a jury? Even when the case was as famous as it was, you have to know it's going to go on forever. But each of these people genuinely seems upset when they're dismissed.

but as I was saying before, it's really all the biggest, key people involved in the trial that are the most pathetic to watch, virtually the whole prosecuting AND defense team, because it's like they're the biggest racists of all. Doing all this strategy from a basis of "well this person will obviously vote not guilty entirely BECAUSE they're black" (and vice versa). why do I keep watching this, it just pisses me off

[smokew11]

i think the jurors who were removed were upset because they already spent 8 months of their lives on this, and now they don't get to see it through. The others were angry because the racial divide was clear as day

And honestly, it blows my mind that someone could have domestic violence and kidnapping on their record and nobody knows about it

[Climb2safety]

I enjoyed the first seasons of Love and Flaked.

Am I the only one watching/loving Vinyl?
