Man that Fantastic Four youtube vid XFactor posted in the Dwight thread is amazing!!!
I can't wait for the season to start.

Watching that vid got me digging up alot of my old Shady/D12 playlists back into rotation.

Hey Steph, are you a bit disappointed on how the final season of Weeds is going so far?

Truthfully I thought the show took a plunge the season they were in Mexico.
Bounced back a bit as they were on the run with the road trip to Seattle and going mediocre now in their Final days in Connecticutt.

Maybe I'm just expecting too much

1. Eureka. Cancelled because America is stupid and would rather watch dumb $hit like Ghost Hunters and MMA.

2. Fringe. Great show. Can't wait for season 5 which airs Sep 28.

3. Dexter. I dressed up as Dexter 2 of the last 3 Halloween's and will probably do it again this year. Looking forward to seeing how things play out between Dex and his sis now that she knows what's up. Maybe he'll finally bang her, or better yet, slit her throat.

4. Breaking Bad. Awesome show. Isn't this the last season?

5. Merlin. Season 5 is coming up. Should be good.

I don't watch either, but now that you mentioned it I think I was probably referring to wrestling, whatever that acronym is.

The real problem is reality shows. Lots of great TV series have been cancelled to make room for that nonsense.

Oh yea, and Nikita is another good show. That one is going into season 3. Nothing more entertaining than female assassins, or assassins in general.

well wrestling is fake and gay, while mma is real and awesome.

while that is true and quite unfortunate, i think most good shows find a way to stay on air. hell even arrested development is coming back. the only one i can think of that got canned for no reason and was almost universally loved is firefly.

MMA is sweet, its WWE that you're thinking of lol

I think that episodes of Raw & Smackdown still draw ridiculous numbers even though fake wrestling hasn't been interesting in like 15 years.

******DISCLAIMER: THE FOLLOWING PERSON HAS BEEN STONED/HIGH/MELLOW/BLOWN/FADED/LIFTED/LIT/FRIED/BAKED/**** UP EACH AND EVERY TIME HE HAS SEEN THE FOLLOWING SHOWS. READER BEWARE******


In no particular order, assuming we're only talking of somewhat recent shows, based on everyone's top 5:

1) Mad Men (The show has never once disappointed me, which is rare. I find the times crazy awesome so maybe i'm too biased here)
2) Arrested Development (still have trouble getting over that ending, but the show was pretty awesome)
3) Weeds (I stopped watching after the 4th season, I felt they didn't know what to do with the show and burned)
4) Archer (I love one line jokes when i'm stoned, even sober i'm amazed at them, though i rarely ever sober, going on something like 3 years now?)
5) Skins (most never heard of this show but saw it on Netflix and got hooked, I love how the characters are all tied in and the depth of these characters, it's funny at times and geniunely entertaining in my book. Has more oomph than many American shows pitching the same.


Honorable Mention:

- How I Met Your Mother (Awesome show but sometimes certain things irk me, it's too annoying but i love it 95% of the time)
- Breaking Bad (haven't seen anything past season 1, gotta catch up again. I hear it's matured extremely well)
- The Office (Dwight was probably my favorite character, ever in anything.
- The Walking Dead
- Falling Skies (only saw one episode, all I needed to see. What a show!!)
- Bones (I had quite the sick amusement with the science side of that show but also found Bones worth a bone :D )
- River Monsters
- Deadliest Predators/Monsters I don't remember the name but yea, awesome show
- Bored to Death, awesome show to watch high
- Check It Out/Eric Andre Show, two more great shows when high
- Robot Chicken, usually i laugh 2/3 of the show but my sis didn't grow up here in the States so she misses almost all the comedy from the show since it heavily focuses on the 80s and 90s.
- Dexter, stopped watching it should catch up but i just don't
- Trueblood, usually it's pretty cool.



Humiliating Facts:

I've never ever seen the following shows, not even one episode. These listed aren't seen because I just don't get around to it and I know they're deep in the seasons if not over already. I don't list stupid **** i would never ever see.

- Big Bang Theory (and i'm a nerd i know i know)
- Californication
- Game of Thrones
- Boardwalk Empire

I'm more into Sci-Fi and Fantasy stuff, and the sad reality is that those have the highest production costs and tend to get cancelled out of the blue -- especially if they're on the SyFy Channel which doesn't draw nearly as many viewers as NBC, ABC, etc. The exception was Battlestar Galactica which had sort of a fanatical following. Some studio would have probably gotten bombed if they cancelled that mug.
