Very funny but and the end I found it hard to watch.

I have begun watching Game of Thrones, I have seen a few episodes of Season 2, probably should find a way to watch more episodes. It hasn't been too bad really.

I didn't know Louie the Fly had his own series. When did that happen?

Man the logies are embarrassing.

Time to throw them out and start again.

Even the actual trophy looks cheap and hideous but might have a future as a G spot stimulator.

I'm looking forward to Scream Queens by Ryan Murphy which is out in the states in September, other that the next installment of American Horror Story begins filming.

American Crime Story intrigues me a bit, their first episode was on the OJ Simpson trial.

Downloaded the TV Series "Transparent" which won't be a Free to Air Series that's for sure. It's a Comedy/Drama and it deals with many issues. I can see why the main actor won a golden globe.

Looking forward to having a look at this. New TV series for Supergirl looks to be set in the same frame as the current Superman movies.

That looks totally ridiculous. But probably still fun.

Oh yeah, it's fun. Just watched the pilot courtesy of a dropbox link my cuz sent me as a birthday pres.

My issues as a comic phile are some liberties with the origin story (serious liberties), adding in a local sister, Jimmy Olsen is now a tall bald black man and the whole landing of the galactic prison on earth.

Plus, the designated villain of the pilot was named Vartox who was a hero of another world with psychic powers that resembled those of Superman, whereas the dude who wielded the atomic axe that vartox wielded in the pilot was actually wielded by a crook known as the Persuader, the best incarnation of whom fought against the legion of superheroes in the 30th century.

Even though a lot of things changed with the crisis reboot, some things didn't.

having put up those critiques, fkn loved it. :D

The new season of True Detective started today.

Interesting to see how it stacks up against season 1 with a different cast and story.

The third season of Hannibal started a few weeks back.

One of the more inventive and beautifully shot productions on television right now.

Anyone watch that, Penny Dreadful or Wayward Pines?
