Who watched The League? There was some funny shit in that first episode.

I'm so far behind on that one... I love it (but can never seem to find the time) and that says a lot because I dislike football and "fantasy" sports... but my God, is that a funny show. Jon Lajoie for the win

Walking Dead is back, season 3.

Yes it is! While I don't feel like they gave us much of anything last night, I was glad to have it back.



Also, really love the digs AMC gives Dish Network in the commercial breaks.

I started watching Walking Dead finally and I'm about 6 episodes in. After the first episode or two it's not doing much for me. The acting is pretty mediocre and it seems like it lost most of the intensity that was there at the beginning.

Yeah now just have to wait for Dish to show pictures of AMC blowing a goat.

It gets better (without spoiling the rest of season 1). Give it the entire season before giving up on it.

Besides, it's a really short season.

Yeah admittedly the character development blew the first season, trust me it does get better.

 

[the canadian dream]

good soa episode.

 

[Ymono37]

good soa episode.

Still can't believe just how many things happened in 1 hour... oh and not to spoil it for those who haven't watched yet but, fucking Clay...

 

[MassHavoc]

Yep, great SOA episode, spoilers ahead for folks, but I'm so glad Wayne finally kicked Gemma in the vagina. Loved seeing Joel McHale, Nomads revealed as the home invaders as expected, I think Clay is finally going to die. I really really fear for Tig, they set up the scratch from the guards wife to look like the scratch from the sherriffs wife so I think the sherrif is going to come for him, I hope that he doesn't die. I think Pope is going to really be a problem, but in the end the cartel/CIA might be using the sons to set him up to take him down as well as the Irish. I dont' know how they are going to get out of bed with Pope now that they are in too deep. All I could really say at the end of the episode was what was stated... fucking Clay.

I'm actually worried about Unser for the next ep... I'm also wondering if Juice's heritage will come in to play now that (SPOILER ALERT) Clay is working with the Nomads. Just seems like they made way too big a deal out of it and not a whole lot came out of it. The Sheriff will be real interesting to watch.

SPOILERS AHEAD!



OMG! If Unser dies I will be devastated. I love him so much. I do want him to be the one to find the evidence that points to Clay. I want him to have a win under his belt.



We all knew Clay was doing this because he's awful and doesn't know how to take a backseat and he likes to destroy lives. And I do think that Juice's story will come back and have some dire consequences. Sutter likes to let plots simmer and then explode. Opie's arc to this season has been building since the beginning. The guy knows how to write for the future and keep track of these threads that you think have been abandoned. It's so clever.



Pope is going to become a huge problem and shit is going to fly.



I like the addition of Joel McHale at the end of the episode with Gemma. Curious to see what his character is up to.

The previews made it look like Unser corners Clay and something bad happens. I fear the worst for him. I don't think Juices heritage comes back up because the only one left that knows about it is the Sheriff, so the only way it does is if he tries to leverage it against him and the sons, but I don't think he will, I think the sheriff will end up giving in and working with the sons for vengence on Clay and the nomads. Joel will be back and I read somewhere that he has a great little run with the show, they showed him taking Gemma home then stealing her wallet and SUV from the seedy motel. When Gemma tells Jax he was like, "who are you" hopefully this is the last straw between them as she's out of control and Jax always have to clean it up. Clay faking sick is genius writing, the who charecter is genius for no other reason than how much of ta great villian he is.

I totally agree with Mass, too - him standing up to Gemma was fucking overdue and brilliant. I love his character too, but my favorites are still Bobby and Chibbs.



Mass - I completely agree, Clay is awesome because of how fucking awful a character he is.

That's funny, I just turned to my wife last night and said, I fucking love Bobby and Chibbs, after Chibbs gave Tibs the little kiss on the cheek. I think they are my favorite too. With Tibs right behind. I used to love Opie before he got all pissy last season, still one of my favorites though which made killing him off so horrible. I think I loved him because everytime I saw him all I could think about was Bertier...

Bobby is easily the most level-headed of the group... I like that. As much I loved the dynamic of Opie and Jax, I really thought Bobby deserved the VP position.



And while Chibbs can be hot-headed, he doesn't seem to lose control as easily as Tig... but Tig has been cracking me up lately.

 

[MassHavoc]

Yeah, I love Chibbs because he's between Bobby and Tig. And I love that I can't understand a fucking word he says sometimes.

I still can't figure out if his Irish, Scottish or a combo of both...



-wikipedia check-

Actually looks like the character is Scottish but grew up in N. Ireland.

 

[MassHavoc]

Yeah, he's one of the original links to the IRA connection.

 

[Ymono37]

Oh I knew that... I knew he had spent time in Ireland - but his accent always threw me off, because it's more Scottish.

This kinda belongs in TV. If anyone remembers the little video short someone made called "nuka break" that was a fallout (the video game) spoof. They made it into a complete series and are currently working on season 2, and its actually pretty damn good, i mean i am dying for the season 2 premiere, its campy as shit, but really fun, having played the game really lends itself to liking this series alot though.
