The second episode of the new season of Breaking Bad was fantastic. Walter White is an irredeemable dick and is terrifying because he now has no fear and, though smart, is, like Mike said, a time bomb, like Saul said, a lucky man who should quit while he's ahead. It will make you wonder what it'll take to get him to realize the depth of his destruction? It wasn't potentially murdering a child to get Jesse's attention and then covering it up. Maybe the death of one of his children? He's not even able to see how horribly hurt and terrified his wife is. The end of the episode, with him kissing and caressing Skylar while telling her that all the killing and maiming and danger will get better, she'll get used to it because it's all worthwhile was so creepy.



Mike is fantastic. Still not enough Jesse, but this episode really improved on last week's getting up to speed episode. Lots of action, so much tension, great scenes with all the characters. And Hank is like a parallel to Walt. Both are extremely smart in their field of expertise, but get cocky, display a God complex.



I can't believe there are only six more episodes this season. Why didn't they just air all 16 final episodes in one season?

Walt thinks he's hot shit now that he offed Gus and thinks he can run a business like that himself. And I think that Hank suspects if not even knows about Walt, but he's going to make sure he has some evidence before even bringing it up as he's would be in the hot seat with Walt being his brother-in-law. And Mike is probably my favourite character on the show, he is cool as ice but I could see him getting flustered now that he will have to work with Walt & Jesse, who have a knack of fucking things up. They are going to have both the DEA and Madrigal on their tail. Love this show.

Watched about half-a-season of Alphas last year.. it was good but I got too busy to keep up.



LOVE Warehouse 13... glad it's back.



And I figured you would dig it The Guild is pretty well written AND acted. And it has Felicia Day.

I love your raging hard on for Felicia Day..... any chance to work her name in and you are all over it... haha. I haven't really followed her so I am a bit immune, but she is good.

Only time I actually got "star-struck" was around her. Came within 10 feet of her at a Con and couldn't fucking talk and got nervous.

Discovered "Sons of Anarchy" this weekend and can't believe I hadn't watched this show sooner. Katey Segall is fucking fantastic and I think I'll pretty much watch anything that Ron Perlman is in. About half-way through the first season... it's about time they did a show about family politics that wasn't centered around rich, upper-class people.

Watched Longmire on A&E last night. They aired multiple episodes last night, watched a few I hadn't caught. That show is growing on me.

Why do I feel like I've heard of it... what's it like.





On a side note, I always see the commercials for Lost Girl on sci fi when I am watching Alphas or Warehouse 13... but I can't stand them, and it looks horrible to me. I tried to watch it once and wanted to break my TV... can anyone dispute this?

The GF and I watched Monday's Warehouse 13 ep last night and it really seemed like Joanne Kelly (Myka) was phoning it in... and what was up with her hair? The whole episode looked as though she'd been standing in the wind.

I watched it last night as well because the wife had watched it on monday and it was the first time i had to fast forward through parts. The entire lovecraft side of the episode was horribly written this time. I was like what the **** this episode sucks and my wife was literally like "I know riiiight?" I don't know what the hell happen that episode but it wasn't good.

It's a group of 4 high schoolers or whateve the British equivelant is and they don't fit into the popular group or ultra nerdy group. They're kind of in between. Hence the inbetweeners. They get picked on a lot, pick on each other a lot, and basically find themselves in weird and uncomfortable situations. The humor is pretty raunchy but pretty fucking hilarious.
