There have been moments. I might re-watch all of S4 and post my feedback.

That's true. He was one of the most intolerable characters I've ever encountered in a TV series in the earlier seasons, but since then his character has gotten to be somewhat likable. It'll be interesting to see what happens to him in new season. Also, more Christina Hendricks would be nice.

I loved the hell out of that series. The only slight disappointment comes from the last few mins. of the last show.

I watched that and then would catch some portlandia afterwards. The bookstore feminists are friggin' hilarious!


I finally caught up with Banshee and finished that off.
Alan Ball from True Blood dipped his creative hands into it with some producing I believe.

Watching Twin Peaks again, because I had a serious revelation about the white and black lodges, and wanted to check it against the context of the series.

I'm also still watching Degrassi, because, I mean, I've watched it since TNG started, and I'm definitely not the target audience - but I feel kind of devoted to it.

(Did I cry when Cam killed himself this season? *Awkward aversion of eye contact* Nooo. Of course not. That's silly...*kicks dirt*)

Aside from that, Portlandia (Kyle MacLachlan is fabulous as the mayor, and I kind of dig Fred Armisen's surreal sense of humor) and mo' Nu-Who. I'll get around to watching original Doctor Who at some point, but I need to be wholly caught up with the new **** before I can do it.

The Vikings

I just want to admit straight up that I know next to nothing about the Viking Age besides the few factoids from history class, so I can't comment on the historical accuracy of The Vikings and given History's fascination with the whole ancient aliens theories, one might be forgiven for assuming the show carries as much weight to the subject as God of War does to Greek history.

Run off sentences aside, I do think this is a pretty good show with a lot of great cinematography, sets, and an intriguing story. It reminds me of the HBO series Rome in a lot of ways, and not just for the historical setting with a tolerance for huge liberties with the historical people present in the show, but for the grand sets and real sense of immersion that I didn't get from other shows like Spartacus which was just green screened to death. Gonna catch the second episode tomorrow night, but I will definitely be keeping up with this show.

The only gripe I have is less with the show than its delivery method. I saw it was on HuluPlus which I use to keep up with weekly installments for network TV shows, but despite this show being on HuluPlus, I can only watch it on my computer, not on my 42" TV that's hooked up to my Xbox. First world problems.

For those that enjoy historical drama, there's a mini series 4 episodes in (of 9) called Vikings that's pretty good. If you're into this sort of thing, I would recommend checking it out.
