    I miss Cy. ;<
    Yeah I didn't much like Hell on Wheels, I just kept thinking "I miss Deadwood"

    Lotsa actors kinda suck at acting drunk though, especially in dramas.
    Stoned acting annoys me too

    (Original post by concubine)
    Jane in Deadwood was pretty good. She's pretty hawt without all the makeup.
    I dunno, I just see her as Juliet's bald cancer-ridden sister in Lost

    Just watched Dexter. Fairly predictable, as usual. Also I think it's about time someone mentioned how ****ing ugly LaGuerta is

    Haha, yeah. She was kinda hot at times in Oz, but I guess that was a while ago.


    I just want Dexter to go evil and **** everything up and end it all.

    Has anyone seen Southland on More4, the cop show about the LAPD, personally I think it's brilliant, don't think too many people have seen it though..

    They played out this twist pretty good but I'm just praying they don't do the killing style ending.

    Oh FFS I was hoping they wouldn't do that. As long as they don't do another twist it should be alright

    Given how overdone cop shows are I think it's pretty good. Some of the acting is great.

    I can't stand the ****ing bleeping over the swearing though.



    It should be next Monday so that I have all these essays handed in and I can watch BE and Homeland. And fap.

    I was about to ask if there was going to be anything good on after the current stuff (i.e. Boardwalk Empire and Homeland) finishes. But I did a bit of Wikipediaing and it turns out it's going to be pretty awesome:

    30 Rock
    Luck
    House of Lies
    Justified
    The Walking Dead
    Treme
    Veep
    Mad Men
    The Good Wife (possibly)

    So, the plan is to re-watch Mad Men and Justified before they start.

    Anything else to look out for in the new year?

    One more twist (like that) and I stop caring about the show.

    I can't be arsed with any more of that "is he, isn't he a mole" crap. It's part of the reason '24' ended up so lame.

    Yeah I definitely agree about the swearing, I don't really get it, it's shown after the bloody watershed!

    But I love it, it's pretty much the only cop show on these days, I miss the Shield and the Wire so MUCH!

    Ok, American Horror Story sucked..... I only watched the pilot (and I thought the same about Treme which got a little better later) so I don't know if I should watch a few more to see if it gets better. FX seems to have a knack for making ****ty shows.

    What! Treme's awesome. It did take me three or four episodes to get into it, but when I did I really got into it.

    I don't know man, I feel like it doesn't go anywhere and the story line doesn't exactly captivate the audience. Don't get me wrong though I finished the entire 1st season and got into about the 5th episode of the second season but I just don't have the urge (or care tbh) to know what will happen next.

    I gave up on Treme after 6 or 7 episodes.


    I gave up on AHS after 1.5.
