Shit's gotta hit the fan, there's only 8 more episodes and then the series is done.Blob Mckenzie wrote:Think Vince Gilligan jumped the shark here. Little too much Heisenburg
I've watched the first two episodes and it's pure shit! Total shit! NBC, what did we expect?Mëds wrote: Two episodes into Revolution, intrigued by the main plot line. However, I prefer a more linear approach to stories and find flashback story telling a bit frustratingly slow at times.....I would rather they start somewhere and carry through to the outcome or build something up and then produce a complete prequel that runs into the beginning of the original. Still looks to be a good show though.....

HBO... How does NBC compete with that? They don't and that's the problem with Revolution. Kids aren't watching Revolution and no adult that's witnessed countless drama's on HBO and more recently AMC is going to watch that pile of crap and be able to take it serious... Giancarlo Esposito's, Breaking Bad fan's will not stick around IMO!
Actually Revolution might of worked had it been developed for HBO!
(yes i am a network snob, mainly because i dislike shit tv whoiswithme)
Well I won't even argue that HBO knows how to make TV. There aren't any shows that I'm aware of that really touch the stuff they put out in terms of production quality and grit. In Canada I would say that Showcase does a good job, but it's still not HBO. I'm not even comparing anything on the mainstream networks to HBO's shows like GoT.ukcanuck wrote:colour me wityouODB wrote:I've watched the first two episodes and it's pure shit! Total shit!

Its gonna take genius level work to out do Game of Thrones and Walking Dead IMHO
Dont know if networks are really set up for shows like them anyway. too much of the Bible belt is watching for all the sex, drugs and violence...you know the stuff that makes it all worth watching

Just started watching Walking Dead. Got through the first season already on Netflix, the second is on there as well. I'm PVRing the current season so I can watch when I get caught up.Mr.Miyagi wrote:Did anyone catch Walking Dead season premiere on Sunday? What a beauty ... looks like this season is going to be awesome!
Hell on Wheels got a LOT better in season 2 though I didn't like the last episode. Cullen will be a very angry man next year and hopefully the Swede gets whats coming to him.Mëds wrote:Just finished watching Hell on Wheels on Netflix. That was good.
