Fall 2010 Television Season

[Hammer]

yea i wanna start dexter from season 1 myself, havent started yet as a result. i also have the walking dead taped, havent watched it yet, but i heard it was just a 6 episode miniseries, which disappoints a tad.

Dexter is awesome. I don't have Showtime though so I have to rent or borrow the DVD's for each season.

And Hammer, The Walking Dead is only 6 episodes for season one, but if it is picked up, they will have 13 episode seasons like Mad Men and Breaking Bad. I have to imagine it is picked up given that they got like the best ratings AMC has ever had.

I'm not sure how far you can go with stories revolving just around zombies. They're not vampires whose characters can be developed. All you need to do is shoot them in the forehead and they're dead. Eventually, it'll be "been there, seen that" won't it? I hope not, but how far can you go with a zombie apocalypse?

[Kingdom]

It's more about how the survivors evolve and adapt, than the zombies. They're just the pretty background colors for people to veg out to.

[missionhockey21]

Yeah, I am sure they can drag it out quite a bit. Plus they can go all LOST/Jericho style with the rebuilding of society stuff.

The last episode of Community was epically hilarious. It raised the bar for TV comedy. Just when you think that show might be fading, they come up with a pure gold episode.

I loved Abed's one-liners. Zing'ed.

[Foster]

I thought it was kinda weak compared to the zombie halloween episode.

[DirtyKash]

Walking Dead episode 2 - awesome. This show is officially hardcore. HARDCORE.

[DirtyKash]

Anyone going to check out Conan's new talk show tonight? It only mildly interests me, even if I hate the way NBC screwed him over (although he got rewarded financially in spectacular fashion as a result).

[DirtyKash]

AMC cancels Rubicon.

[Hammer]

are you ****ing kidding me?

walking dead is great though

[missionhockey21]

Glad I didn't try to get into Rubicon. I have enough shows I don't watch that are still on the air.

I still need to watch Walking Dead episode two.
