My favorite show is Californication. It's totally crude and halarious. I like Weeds as well and I'm starting to watch a show called Supernatural that I might get hooked on. I can't belive the show was on the WB cause it is actually good.

Yeah, the Wire is absolutely the best show ever on TV.
I remember over at sepinwall blog they tried to do a best/funniest moments ever top-10 list and ended up with top-50 list with at least another 20 as "honorable mentions".

I'm still upset they took Arrested Development off the air. That show was brilliant. They just kept putting it in so many different time slots it was doomed to fail.



Not as upset as Mrs. Featherbott...errr...David Cross.

Holly crap! I just got to say, to all the Wire fans here, Amazon has a deal going on today where you can buy the COMPLETE series for $80!!! This is a fantastic deal, I was looking for a place to buy it and the cheapest I could find it was for about 110. This is brand new for $80! Some places sell this for $250. Damn I almost wish I had the cash to buy two, this would be a great gift!

Just finished with the 2nd season, thought it was a lot weaker than the 1st.

By far the weakest of the seasons. Don't let it dissuade you. March on to Season 3.

Yea, a lot of people feel season 2 was weak. I still liked it but I liked it the least of any. Season 3 gets right back to greatness though. Some of my favorite moments are in season 3.

BTW, to the Arrested Development fans, I read last week that they have a movie on the books. They are already getting the stars signed, and they even have Michael Cera (maybe now the hardest one to sign) already on board.

What is that? Maybe I'm out of touch, but I've never heard of that show before. I'm always looking for something good.

Really? Sweet. Last I heard they were having trouble getting Cera on, that's great to hear.

It's a comedy that comes on FX. It's one of my favorites. I think you can watch it on Hulu.com
