Didn't know until now Last Comic Standing is back and they've switched it up a little, auditions more of a Voice format than an Idol format.

Fallback scenario there too of putting it on mute and whacking off to roseanne if it's not good. Talk about a can't miss.
 
The guy who plays The Mountain in GoT is actually a ginormous human being.

No trickery. 6'9", 420 pounds of hairy Icelandic meat. That's like 4 Tyrions.
 
Game of Thrones is awesome. Show just keeps getting better. Boardwalk Empire is good. Into season 3 now and still interesting, although I do not consider it an all-time great show. Fargo is doing it for me in the way I expected it would, hard to top Lester banging Mrs. Hess while ole Sam's looking on from the picture on the bedroom wall. Guy is really turning into a devious fella, eh?

Didn't get to see that tech show but maybe I'll try it out. Nothing can be worse than Turn was.

Oh I did try watching The Wire but turned it off after 30 minutes of the first episode. I assume it got better than that, but I had no patience for it. True Detective is pretty much the only cop show I've ever liked, and that was not your typical cop show.
 
We did that the other day and felt pretty much the same way. Been a long time since I watched the whole series but I know the payoff is there. It's just so old it's tough.

Digging the new Last Comic Standing. Sure it's low budget (for NBC) and very much feels that way, but it's not like how it used to be with all the filler - just performance, judging, and then you quickly see who goes through, no bs. If you have a deeper interest in stand up it's very much recommended. I hope it sticks.
 
I don't know man. I usually dislike fantasy but that shit managed to grab me. I did have to put in a little effort, which was facilitated by the fact that the woman is a hugh fan of the books.

I don't know man. I say give it a try.

BTW GoT's beginnings are also slow. First episode bored me solid.
 
I actually had to ask about the boy. I thought he was some new character. The kid I remembered didn't look like that and I remember him being borderline retarded. This kid/character was reasonably quick-on-the-draw.

But apparently it is the same kid.

Now that I think about it, we may not be talking about the same boy. There are two boys and neither seems on a path to the next Daniel Day-Lewis.
