TV Shows: What are you watching?

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

All I can really say is that this Chris Hansen dude is a total cockblocker.
Last night saw him catching dishonest tradesmen.

Amen bos; but I recently tried that "you won't be disappointed" line on a fellow downloader/pirater at my kids school. She's almost through the first season and is just not impressed at all. "It's too slow... blah blah blah... I can't get into the characters"

I don't think I want my kids playing with her kid anymore. The stupid may just rub off and infect my children.

That's not the first time I've heard that, Eddy. I think 'The Wire' is more of a guy show.

I'll let you know how my wife likes it. I'm referring to the show of course.

I really like The Office. I am particularly fond of the new Robert California character, although Michael Scott was awesome as well.

I feel so strongly about these two characters that I almost started an individual thread about them... even though the TV Shows thread was clearly visible at the top of the main page! :lol: Honestly, I doubt anybody would have responded even if I had.

Boy, that would have been really stupid if I'd done that.

Yep, it's been great so far.

I think Nucky's brother is going to be the first regular character axed.

Boardwalk officially rules. Richard's trip to the forest, Nucky bitchslapping his pisstank little brother, the lesson Jimmy teaches the old Indian-killer...

What a gruesomely awesome episode. And it's already been renewed for season 3!

Haven't caught Season 2 of Boardwalk Empire - but really like the first. Perhaps the second best HBO series after Carnivale.

Last night a girlfriend and a couple of her pals made me sit through an entire episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Mildly stoned no less. I felt a strange combination of outrage and fascination. Mostly outrage.

Call Me Fitz is pretty funny once you get into it. Jason Priestly was a high-school aquaintance of my sister back in the day.

The Eastbound and Down new season starts soon, apparently it's the last one. Kenny fucking Powers, bitch.

Just watched the first 3 episodes of Jekyll (BBC) last night - great stuff! Some wonderfully dark humour there.

Didn't catch Boardwalk last night (pvred) but I did watch Walking Dead. Shane is the kind of guy I'd want around if I was trying to survive a zombie apocalypse.

He’s a bad ass! :thumbs:
