Noice.


I don't know what I am going to watch next. I am all caught up with GoT so there is nothing to do but wait.

A whole bunch of shows are either done, or I am waiting for new seasons.

I got Halt and Catch Fire going. Enjoying that so far. There might be 1 episode of Nurse Jackie left ?? Not sure.

Maybe I'll try season 1 of Orange is the New Black. I have heard mixed things but I am not overflowing with better ideas.



I'm about ready for some more Boardwalk Empire, if anyone out there is listening.
 
Dude everything has ended. We are watching America's Got Talent for entertainment. That is not a joke, we are doing that Muddy. My god. They give it to us all at once and then they take it all away at once Muddy. When I'm done working we're walking down to the fucking Red Box and we haven't done that in a long time. It's a fucking put on Muddy. It's a fucking put on.
 
I'm not even sure about some of the shows I'm quote-unquote "waiting" for. I watched The Newsroom through 2 complete seasons. I guess that will be coming back at some point, but the thought of picking up with it makes me throw up in my mouth a little.

I don't think I'm going to last much longer with The Newsroom is what I'm saying, if that is not clear.
 
Almost completely through season 4 of Boardwalk Empire and it couldn't come at a better time with the new season on the horizon.

The show is remarkably consistent, and what I mean is you don't get one or 2 good episodes then half a season of garbage, it's crawling it's way into my top 5 shows of all time. Loved seeing Malvo snap and shoot those 3 guys in the head, also like the ups and down Nucky goes through not only with those that support him but those that he supports. Not a huge fan of Arnold Rothstein despite his gambling connection. Big Chalky White fan. And what a name, really.
 
I have to say too, about Nurse Jackie: the last couple of seasons have been pretty heavy-handed and I, like quite a few people, have felt like they should've packed it in. There have been some stupid sub-plots, awkwardly told. Weak comedy.

But at the same time, this season has gone in some really dark directions with the addictions. VERY authentic. No doubt they have addicts involved in the writing. The last episode had some great turns.

Season 6 finale is tonight and it appears that there will be a season 7.

It is just such a mish-mash. Some great stuff and some awful stuff. Prolly more heavily weighted to the awful stuff but as an addict they do come up with some stuff that makes me go, "Oh fok shit."
 
I have been watching A River Runs Through It and it got me wondering what happened to Emily Lloyd. She faded from the mainstream in the late 90's and has only 1 title of any kind since 2003 - although looks like she is in something coming out this year.

She was quite a cutie patootie in her time. She's 43 now.

Seems like there were quite a few behavioral issues which are described as everything from depression/anxiety to mild schizophrenia.

Californication wrapped up on Sunday very conclusively and cool. It did fizzle out this year but Hank Moody is likely Bacon's favorite character in the history of TV. This is show that can be binge watched to kill time if you enjoy hilarious rampant shennanigans, raunch, sex and profanity.

Gonna miss ya Hank.
 
I just watched the premier of the new HBO series, The Leftovers. It was quite interesting. All kinds of mysterious WTF-is-going-on-with-that? moments.

Towards the end my thought was, it is intriguing enough and I'll keep watching. I just hope it isn't another LOST.

I got to the credits and one of the first names was one I definitely remember from LOST.

I ain't watchin' The Leftovers.

Fool me once . . .


I'll wait. If it lasts 20 episodes and at that point I hear a few people I don't consider idiots saying it's worthwhile - I'll rejoin the fray.

But I ain't watching no new LOST.
 
One must remember when considering recommendations from Rubyn that she likes everything.

Love her. Wish she was here. She means well - I know that. But the list of things she has liked that facebook keeps showing me never ends.

Put it in front of her, good chance she likes it.

Having said all that, you might like Mr. Nobody. I found it to be artsy fartsy claptrap but who knows?
