Larry David hasn't said when the next season of Curb will be. He takes his time. Last season in New York was great.

Yeah that's what I thought. The last few minutes of the finale when he was in France was great. I could see them doing an entire season in Europe, there'd be so much potential and it would keep the show fresh. Not only would Larry be great in Europe, but Leon would probably be pretty funny too.

Leon was great last year. I'm glad they've kept him around. Larry insulting Frenchies and getting in trouble over there would be a great season. I thought he'd be done after the Seinfeld reunion season but I'm glad he's kept it going. I loved the one last season when Larry and Rosie ODonnell were fighting over the same woman. And the woman dumped Larry at the baseball hall of fame when she found out he was "juicing" (viagra). Funny stuff.

Wow, "Luck" starts tomorrow night, I had no idea. Thought it was starting in January. Sunday is such a huge TV night for us.

Once Upon A Time
Desparate Housewives
Pan Am
The Good Wife
Homeland
Boardwalk empire
Hells on Wheels
TWD (season just ended)
Luck
Leverage
Dexter

Other than Once Upon A Time they all are on at either 8 or 9 o'clock. Add to it CBS always runs late meaning I have to record CSI Miami to catch all of the Good Wife, it is a nightmare fitting all of these shows in (I can only record 2 shows at a time). I know most are on Demand, but those usually you can't pause or FF, so I prefer to record all of'em. I think I am forgeting a show as well.

Anyways...be sure to check out Luck on HBO tomorrow night or sometime soon after. Whew!!

It's a sneak preview of the Luck pilot. The series starts next month.

I'm definitely gonna check out 'Luck.'

David Milch usually has good shows, I enjoyed NYPD Blue and Deadwood, didn't enjoy John from Cincinnatti. But his writing style grates on me. Luck sounds good and I'm also interested to see if Dustin Hoffman has a real part or if he's more of a bit player.

My DVR accidentally started recording season 1 of Breaking Bad, I think it thinks they are new episodes or something. But any way, I told my roommate to start watching them since he hasn't seen BB before. He watched the first two episodes tonight and is completely hooked. I think he's going to use my Netflix to watch Seasons 1-3, he'll probably finish them in a couple of weeks now that our semester is about done. I watched the pilot with him and I was surprised how little I remember, I think I'm going to have to start watching them again. It's really interesting to see Walt when he was still a low key school teacher.

Claire Danes was amazing in Homeland tonight.

Dexter was ok last night. Nothing great. They could have skipped it and just went to next weeks finale.

There is a lot of incest related things coming up on TV now-a-days. :lol:

That scene was especially weird since they're married. Well actually they just recently got divorced. Even more weird lol

Did you watch Luck, MD? I DVR'd it and plan on watching it tonight.

Have to say I didn't care for Luck all that much. BUT, many shows take time to grow. Often the writers need time to flesh out the characters and plotlines. Milch's writing style grates on me though. It's exactly the same in every show he's done. It was ok in NYPD and Deadwood because the plots and cast were good. But I just don't like the way he writes dialogue.

I have no interest in Luck. Not sure why, but I saw the previews and was just like "This looks like poop.".
