Hannibal was great, loved the ending. Or I thought it was the ending... As I looked into IMDb, it says there will be a 3rd season. What the hell, how can it continue from that?!

it can & will.

wow nice haven't seen that.

''it can & will...'' haha i see what you did there.

Always Sunny in Phili / Man Seeking Woman - Disappointing season finales. maybe chuckled twice.

Last Man on Earth - Cringe-worthy episode, but there's something I enjoy about this show.

House of Cards Season 3. Such a junkie.

Bloodline for next week's downtime,,,,, read mixed reviews

Armando Ianucci (sp?) has a new arts show on the BBC that was really good last night (Friday night pipe/vape 'n' slippers in full effect). Not exactly telly drama, but worth a watch. Kate Tempest's enthusiasm for life & her work was refreshing & made me think impure thoughts, which was nice

New season of Archer is pretty funny IMO. Better than the last few.

Big fan of this season of archer. Archer: Vice was ok , but this one is back to being as good as the first couple of seasons.

Archer is back to old form, thought the Archer Vice thing was a dud.

oh sweet. i haven't seen ANY of Archer Vice, pretty sure there might be some episodes in prior season i haven't finished yet either.. got a lot of catching up to do. is it worth skipping vice?? i feel obliged to watch it anyway cos ukno..

i though vice was worth watching, not as good as the earlier series though. still better than most tv

Pretty much this.

also, broad city is incredible. funniest thing ive seen since the early its always sunny i think.

Trudging through Hannibal season 1 now. The cinematography is by the numbers (black and white flashback scene, really?), the dialog is mostly self-congratulatory and wooden, and the actors' performances are so consistently two-dimensional (was Lawrence Fishburne always this bad?) I feel like the director is at fault. It's all a little too slick, tidy, snappy and predictable. It doesn't afford any breathing room for moments of poetry, it's all whiz-bang, keep the plot rolling. In spite of all that, I'm enjoying it. Posts earlier in the thread seem to indicate that it gets better and there's something really addictive about it so I'll stick with it.

I'm probably just being too hard on every other show after wrapping up The Wire a month ago. Someone said this was originally broadcast on NBC? Pretty impressive, considering.

Man Seeking Woman - Last episode where he becomes conjoined with his girlfriend had me crying during the Bro-Kennel sequence.

I binge-watched every episode last weekend. I didn't find myself laughing out loud much but I like almost everything about it.

Season 2 is where it's at. Felt the same way about season 1. I would've not kept watching, but there's nothing on the tube on Friday nights, so I came back for season 2. It's a far better season. Not a serial killer of the week like season 1. At least I think so...it's been awhile. Pretty lush actually if I were to use one word to describe.

Kinda with you. Not an lol-esque show. I appreciate the strangeness. Bro-Kennel had me crying though. 'Nother shout out to the horror-esque dinner party with his sister earlier in the season.

Looks like they're going to revive the X-files for a limited run with Mulder/Scully. Although the show faltered for several seasons, I still have a huge soft-spot for it. I'll gladly jump in.

yeah the previous one sucked, but this new one was pretty funny. they should focus more on the whole concept of being alone in the world and not just their relationships, which gets really cringey at times when it comes to forte's acting.

This show is definitely cringe-comedy. Not sure if I like that term, but that's what it is. Like you said, especially Forte's. I actually preferred the show with just him, but, that could only go so long I guess. Not sure about adding character after character, which seems like is what's happening. I didn't see last nights 2 episodes yet to comment.

oh i didn't notice there's a pair this week too, grabbing the 2nd.

Just started this too. Not much lore but very well made, hence the exact opposite of Gotham.

Looks like AMC got a new series coming out with William Hurt called "Humans" based on a swedish show "Real Humans". Any of our overseas watmmers have anything good/bad to say about the show? Sounds like it has some possibilities.

Some good animes to watch are

Paranoia Agent

Serial Experiments Lain

Mushishi

Steins Gate

Welcome to the NHK

There's also an anime thread here somewhere where you'll find more recommendations
