    Some of the violent scenes in Boardwalk are rad.

    Yeah, it's good.


    Kinda thought it might be a little ridiculous and over the top (ala later Californication/Weeds/etc) given that it's by Showtime but so far it's done been srsbsns. Damian Lewis is brotastic.

    Wow, how I wish I could join your group... except, I love the following shows:

    Glee
    Heroes
    How I Met Your Mother, and
    Big Bang Theory.

    Really? How could you not like those? Perhaps the first two are a matter of taste, but the latters are SO FUNNY!

    It is all average-crappy comedy and you might not realise this until you have watched good quality tv, as i used to like some of the above but then realised it's all really generic in truth.

    Heroes was good albeit for season 1 but went downhill from there.

    Lol, I never get people who think like that. I watch(ed): Chuck; Gilmore Girls; How I Met Your Mother and Two and a Half Men yet I can appreciate all those shows on the good shows tv list. It's not like they somehow magically cancel each other out.

    Oh yeah, tommrow's gonna have some good shows (Good wife + Homeland).

    Pheylan, you ever heard of 'person of interest'? It came out this year. Good show.

    2 and a half men is possibly the worst written show ever. Lacks any intelligence. Big bang theory and Himym aren't awful but they show average writing. Just one of those thinhs you watch and laugh only a few times in an ep

    Has anyone been watching Homeland? I just discovered it today (I was browsing the Showtime site) and have gone and watched the first episode and Damian Lewis is just :sogood: :lol:

    I have to admit that Showtime seem to have home run after home run with the shows that they put out... and unlike HBO they have a habit of keeping the shows going and not killing them off in their prime (HBO's Deadwood comes to mind :rant:).

    If anyone is looking for good TV, just go with a Showtime Original Series
