I think I watched the first two or three seasons of the wire...I'm sorry but it is a terrible show. Absolutely terrible. All about some niggers in Baltimore. Dexter is infinitely better than the wire. I wouldn't stop watching kiddie porn to put on the wire, but I'd stop having sex with a 14 year old to watch dexter.

Like fuck I haven't. It's in my god-damned netflix queue, behind all the documentaries you reviewed highly.

The Walking Dead kicked ass again.

f3lix · 11-24-2010, 03:08 AM

The Event is so bad, that I can't stop watching.

Der Fuhrer · 11-25-2010, 01:42 AM

That's a very contradictory statement f3lix, explain please.

f3lix · 11-26-2010, 03:01 AM

Kind of like how Snakes on a Plane didn't take itself too seriously, thus knew their B-movie was what it was. The Event is similar in that isn't getting cooky and left-field like every episode. For these reasons, the show amuses me how bad it is and I watch it more for that reason than being addicted to it.

DJ FC · 11-26-2010, 08:51 AM

Pawn Stars is awesome.

Orgazmo · 11-26-2010, 01:41 PM

^ I agree wholeheartedly with that.

Basically they've finally figured out the "9th Chevron" of the Stargate (whatever the fuck that means) but they don't know where it goes. They're on a base on another planet 21ly away from Earth and they get attacked by aliens so they have to evacuate the base. Standard procedure is obviously to go to Earth, but they can't dial Earth for some reason having to do with it exploding and instead get the 9th Chevron dialing going. So they all jump in, but they're not the right special ops team for the job, they're just a bunch of scientists, civilians, and a handful of military dudes. I like that part.

Anyways, the stargate goes to a place they don't recognize, and it turns out to be a giant spaceship built by ancient ancient ancient beings. They find their location (a lot of the episodes is spent trying to figure out what the fuck the ship does and how to use it) and they're several billion light years away from earth. Nobody else is on the ship (that we know of...yet...much of the ship is still locked down) But it's unlikely because the ship has been going for so long. They guess that the Ancients sent the ship off on it's own and were going to use the Stargate to enter it once it's traveled far enough in the Universe, but they never did that.

Anyways, they're on the ship for limited supplies but the Ancients were vaguely human or human related (of course) so the ship itself is very smart and drops out of Faster-Than-Light travel every once in a while when it detects a planet that has supplies the people on the ship might need. How do they get to the planet, you ask? Other Stargates. It's theorized that OTHER ships were sent out before this one to land on planets, gather resources, and build stargates before heading off to other habitable planets to do the same.

It's pretty cool. Pretty dramatic, these fuckers don't really catch much breaks, but I like it.

Has anyone been keeping up with this? Second season has gotten loads better. It's really not that dorky at all and relatively realistic. I would highly suggest checking it out if anyone has been looking for some decent scifi to watch.

Orgazmo · 11-30-2010, 08:42 PM

I just finished Season 3 of Breaking Bad. Jesus...that show, it is amazing how it just keeps getting better and better.

Really looking forward to it picking up with Season 4 soon.

Ugly Bastard · 11-30-2010, 08:46 PM

I'm torn between Sopranos and Breaking Bad as my next TV show obsession.

Der Fuhrer · 12-01-2010, 12:12 AM

I loved the Sopranos for a very long time. There are some extremely good episodes from season 1 to season 4. Some episodes are very weird, and I mean that in a very good way. I'm referring to the one where Tony almost dies, and while in a coma at the hospital, the episode is shown from inside Tony's comatose state as he goes through a near-death experience. It's quite "trippy" if you will, and it's one of my favorite episodes. By the time I got to season 5, however, I was kind of bored with it. I don't think I finished season 5 and I did not watch any of the final season.

thekremlin · 12-01-2010, 05:02 AM

I just started season 2 of eastbound and down. And if you bet on my cock, you better have the pesos, ese.

Pliedes · 12-01-2010, 11:44 AM

I just finished the final episode of Sons of Anarchy season 3 and it was fuckin awesome! Each season has been better than the one before it and this one takes the cake. Especially since the whole storyline/location for the last six episodes takes the show to a whole new level.

It's about a biker gang in northern California, btw, so if that sounds silly (and it kinda is sometimes) go ahead and watch something else in your queue... but don't forget to stash this one for a rainy day.

And Mr.Blonde, i could talk about Stargate for days (sg1 too) but i just don't feel like typing that much.

Cocktooth · 12-01-2010, 12:51 PM

I watched Sons of Anarchy once. I had nightmares about biker gangs for 3 days. I've never watched it again.

Never got into it until Universe. Just finished DLing SG1 season 1 though

Cocktooth · 12-02-2010, 01:48 AM

Just to show some relief on the Nerdballer convention, I give you this gem from East Bound and Down. Probably can stop watching it after Ferrell isn't involved.

This episode might have been the best of the series.

Boardwalk Empire. Steve Buschemi runs Atlantic City during Prohibition in the 1920's.

Season one just ended and i thought it was fantastic from start to finish. If you like both Mad Men and Sopranos then you will probably like this.

angry pancake · 12-14-2010, 08:55 PM

Might sound odd. There was a game show of some sorts on the other day called "Baggage." Hosted by Jerry fucking Springer. Doesn't sound like much, but I'll be damned if it wasn't pretty funny trash tv.

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
