[the canadian dream]

Watched the 2 seasons of the British Sitcom "Spaced" from 1999 -2001. Thought it was amazing and wish there were more seasons. Its on Netflix and its worth watching. Only 14 episodes but the series at least has a complete ending and doesn't go stale trying to go past what it can offer. Probably best it only had 2 seasons as im not sure it could have carried anymore. Could have done at least 3 though .</p>

wasn't a huge fan of last nights GoTs. Have been enjoying the season thus far but last night was for the most part not in the book. One crucial scene was but other than that mostly "off script". Also sucks about who died, she was hot nekkid</p>

Actually, most of it was in the book, just they compressed and rewrote how it went down a bit for the show. Was still a little slow, but maybe I'm only thinking it's slow because I know what will happen. Was sad to see none of Dany last night.</p>

Have a look at "Rectify" on the Sundance channel. It's in the 3rd week but is definitely worth a look, especially considering it has the same producers as Breaking Bad.

I saw a commercial for it and was slightly intrigued but it doesn't show much. brief synopsis?

 

[Spunky Porkstacker]

A guy is released because of DNA evidence, but not exonerated after being sent to death row for 19 years (rape and murder). He goes back to live with his family in the small town he grew up in. Its a perspective of a guy locked up as a teenager, and his adjustment to not only the reactions of various family members, and townspeople but also women, and technology.

It may fizzle out and die but so far its a thumbs up for me.

Alright Netflix be useful dammit. TNT cancelled Southland pick it up or something, be useful for once you bastards.</p>

I do too, and those people were beyond out of control.  How much do you want to bet those desserts were bought elsewhere as well?</p>

Those two were a special kind of crazy, and there's no way that lady made those desserts if she was messing up pizza.

Sorry, with those kinds of ovens you should be rockin' pizzas like you're a master.</p>

Holy shit, Game of Thrones. I knew some bad shit was coming but didn't really know exactly what.

Spoiler

THE RED WEDDING!!!! The single greatest and worst moment of the entire series. I almost stopped reading the series after the red wedding because **** it everyone I like dies. Some differences from the books but no biggie the one that surprised me the most is Catelyn before her throat is cut claws out her own eyes. So the question that remains is in season 4 are they going to do a little head swapping?

Game of Thrones - Don't get too attached to likable characters.    They all die.   Only the people you're waiting to see get their comeuppance seem to survive from book to book with a few exceptions.  Also expect some story lines to plod along and go nowhere fast with characters disappearing for whole books, leaving you kind hanging.</p>

Yeah Dani is close to becoming the boringest character on the show, she has prolly one more season of being cool before you just stop giving a rats ass about her.</p>

 

[MassHavoc]

Finally... the Red wedding... while painful to read/watch I got over it quick because of who dies next. And if they **** that up I'll be pissed. And what is all this extra shit with the Red Woman and the bastard... jesus she sucks.</p>

 

[The Mule]

The Red Wedding was out of control. I can't believe there is only one episode left this season. Stupid 10 episode seasons. They should get at least 12. There is just so much going on that 10 seems short shrift. But that's what we get. </p>

I completely agree, but at the same time I wouldn't mind the 10 episode season so much if it didn't take a full fucking year to do a season...</p>

Yeah what are they doing with her? Going completely "off-script" with her. Also anyone else notice her accent changed from the 2nd season to the third. Second was eastern european and now she sounds british</p>
