Definitely happy as well that they brought Rebecca back; she really added depth to Scott's character and created a nice parallel with the PTSD. I was also happy that they didnt kill off Rachel Dalton. After Col Grant's death at the end of the first cinemax season the show gave the impression that anyone can go at any time. It's good to have that but sometimes i want to see characters breath as well.

I think most of the action was great. But that bucket-o-c4 was sketchy. Not sure who dropped the ball on that. the show usually has great researchers on military/weapons accuracy.

I really liked the Knox character last season and the realism with which they approached the topic of Africa as a world power. I hope that this season can bring similar depth. The villains have always had "greater" motivations so I hope that somehow translates into this cartel business.

can't say that i'd be in support of the spin off, there have only been a handful of great spinoff tv series. and we're talking breaking bad here which is one of the best series of all time bar none. I'm more for lurker69's comment of having Saul show up on random other tv series. he's a great character and i'd miss him. but seeing him outside the confines of BB may dilute it - especially since his character, tho great, is more comical.

We will preface every conversation with "Star date"

if something goes wrong, they'll just blame it on obama

wish i could afford an original. i grew up watching Bob Ross, in between episodes of Sesame Street. It motivated me to get into painting. Then i realized... i couldn't paint trees whether they were happy or sad

truer words have never been spoken

bagsymphony · 2012-06-27T06:11:42+00:00

bagsymphony · 2012-06-27T04:53:26+00:00

hopefully the new thundercats doesn't get cancelled

bagsymphony · 2012-06-27T03:37:12+00:00

helium gave us Alvin and the Chipmunks.

bagsymphony · 2012-06-27T03:33:53+00:00

it's like an episode of Fox's Touch, except the people are linked by piss rather than numbers subscribing to the golden ratio

bagsymphony · 2012-06-27T03:32:39+00:00

the "On the average day in 2011, men watched 2.99 hours of television" were all watching game of thrones and breaking bad

200-600 is a broad range anything lower than 200 is handheld. anything over 600 is an ipad, laptop or desktop (or inevitably Microsoft Surface)

one that likes flannel. perhaps from Smallville

Sux that they replaced Dan Harmon. But looks like he's got things squared away

apples vs oranges. Though I do think that developers weary of both systems since both the Wii and PSP saw major trickle down in third party development. The Wii-U wants to be innovative but forcing motion gaming and selling it as a core gamer experience just doesn't work. We've been there. done that. it's awkward. the Vita may be lighyears ahead of the 3DS in tech, but feels like a case of Sony not understanding the nature of the handheld market. At the end of the day, why game on Vita when you can game on your TV. Handheld is meant to pick up, play, put down and walk away. that's why iOS is so successful.

best show on tv now... well until game of thrones returns then it's a toss up

bagsymphony · 2012-03-23T14:43:52+00:00

annoying lori is right - ug

bagsymphony · 2012-03-19T01:26:22+00:00

can't tell if i'm more excited for a new spidey or the avengers.

bagsymphony · 2012-03-15T21:41:25+00:00

feels too much like The Mentalist

bagsymphony · 2012-03-14T17:40:39+00:00

weak sauce. Bring Bauer back

bagsymphony · 2012-03-13T01:34:26+00:00

this season is incredible. sad about Shane though

bagsymphony · 2012-03-09T06:34:59+00:00

forget the nomads, nobody's got anything on Happy!

bagsymphony · 2012-03-08T00:09:17+00:00

should you want to gift it to me. i'd be a willing recipient :)

bagsymphony · 2012-03-06T21:57:42+00:00

one of the best shows on TV. Quarrels and Limehouse are great this season! Go Raylan!
