My response to the article was "meh". If he was trying to be funny he failed. I like some of the shows. Others I simply have never had time to watch.

what about season 2 and the farm of eternal estrogen?
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

I liked the flashback episode where you see Hershel convincing Rick to take up farming. It was poignant and portended how far away from that man Rick was about to become.

But I'm looking for some serious ass-kicking to happen this season, both towards zombies and the Terminus folks. A couple of weeks more.....

I watch it on Netflix so I am one season behind. Same thing with American Horror Story and some others.

Season 2 was great. Season 1 had it's moments. Season 3 isn't discussed among polite company. Which excludes us, I know.....

Without even clicking the article, I knew TBBT would be on that list.  I personally love the show, but I'm well aware it ain't for everyone.

For AHS I thought the first season was quite scary. Season 2 was good but more bizarre. I've been told that season 3 (Coven) sucks but I will watch it anyway.

I know too many people that are just like those characters to not watch it.

As long as we're giving plugs for shows... I'll toss in AMC's western, Hell On Wheels. I'm a sucker for westerns anyway but this one has gotten quite good in it's 4th season, I think it's 4. AMC has moved it up to 9pm and toned down a little of the nudity and violence that made it kind of Son of Anarchy in the west and added more actual story and suspense. The scenery is great, the settings are believable with authentic clothing and weapons, and the acting isn't bad at all. Of course how can you go wrong with guns, trains, Indians, and lots of bad guys? I noticed the star, Anson Mount, is now producing the show which may account for the improvement this season or else the show's going bankrupt. Either way it's a good watch. I put it ahead of Vikings and behind SOA.
