Shameless season 5 episode 1 was pretty decent

[WingsFan]

Not much I really like on tv right now. Seen True Detective and was really disappointed (happy hollywood cleshay), other shows I have grown tired of Walking Dead, Blacklist, Blue Bloods, Person of Intrest, and a few more. Still like Chicago PD, L&O SVU is always good. Forever is about tops for me, on broadcast. Dont have Showtime, so I miss Homeland.

Better Call Saul starts tonight (preview) :-) Waiting on season 3 of Bates Motel and season two of Fargo (what a great show that was last year)


Just starting streaming Netflix so caught up on a favorite of mine The Killing, and Longmire has been picked up thank God (really good show)

[WingsFan]

Just cleaning out my DVR. Forgot about Murder in the First and Graceland- both were really good.... also

Tyrant - Adam Rayner is cast in the lead, but Ashraf Barhom is the show! Apsolutely fantastic performance last year as an unsure, lacking assurance and self-confidence Scarface on tv.

Anyone watch House of Cards? Is it any good?

[Drew]

Yes, the wife and I both like it. There was a goofy twist in season 2, but we'll watch season 3 when it comes out.

Anyone watch House of Cards? Is it any good?

Yep, worth watching.

[jaadam4]

I'll give it a go then

The first 3 episodes of Shameless has been pretty decent. All the characters are just so f'ed up but likeable. Maybe I love it because it reminds me of my screwed up pollock family in Detroit

The Walking Dead since season 4 began: 59 minutes of bad television, then a cliffhanger.

Seriously though, last night's episode was awful. 1/10

[jaadam4]

The last 2 episodes of Shameless have been AWESOME. Even though there's always a whole lot of nonsense going on they've done really well in making this season quite powerful.

Shameless is good TV

[jaadam4]

I stormed through House of Cards season 1. I never understood how such a great actor in Kevin Spacey could even think of doing a TV series but he's really awesome in this.

Very good show

Battle Creek has been cancelled after 2 episodes, another Michigan-based show that didn't last very long just like Low Winter Sun and Detroit 187. I just have one problem with this - Battle Creek is pretty good - unlike the other two shows. Don't see another TV show based in Michigan... well probably in my lifetime.

Never heard or seen an episode of Battle Creek but the cast actually looks pretty decent.

That's too bad. I watched the pilot and it was okay, but wasn't MUST SEE for me. I actually liked Low Winter Sun and Detroit 187. It's very difficult for a new show to succeed any more. People have too many options and most shows aren't given enough time to find their audience.
