Oh man, Archer. When they broke the news for what the big thing of Season 5 was gonna be last year, I had my hopes really high. Looking back, the whole deal with ISIS being dissolved comes across as a way to shake things up simply because the showrunners had run out of ideas. Might warrant a rewatch though, just to see if my initial impression was wrong.

I've been watching a lot of Portlandia lately and realizing it's very hit-and-miss for me. Fred Armisen is too keen to fall back on drawing a gag or character quirk out into oblivion. His SNL roots really start to show, and it's frustrating because I think I'd be more forgiving of it if Portlandia were a live sketch show or something.

...

Well now I don't look like I enjoy anything.

No love for Ross Kemp?

Watched episode 2 of Extreme World recently, in South Africa, investigating the rape crisis over there. Best show of it's kind imo, so hard hitting and in your face.

Need to torrent #3 which was in Honduras which I'm looking forward to and saw the first ten minutes of #1 which was in Ukraine.

4, 5 & 6 are in Calais (reckon this will be about the illegal immigrants trying to get into England), Memphis and one in Australia on 'Aussie Bikers'.

Just watched the Better Call Saul premiere. I thought it was pretty good. I love that we get to see old characters again.

It was quite a bit darker than I expected it would be. Very little humor really.

I haven't seen the premier yet, but I am expecting a bit of a dark twist. Considering where the character comes from.

i recently saw the last season of South park and i gotta say, SP is still the best satirical cartoon on Tv.

Some SP seasons have been kinda weak but this new one has been one of their best and most different ones imo

The rehash eps, the occulus rift eps, the kickstarter eps, the freemium eps, they were all funny and clever on their own and they somehow tied them all together in a way ive never seen them do before.

That's the last tv show i recall seeing but other than that ive been watching alot Getting Doug with high on youtube.

I am close to the end of The Wire. Last night I was watching an episode and something blew my mind. John Munch (from Homicide: Life on the Street) made a cameo appearance in a bar, saying something like "I used to own a bar". I watched that show after The Wire so I would never have caught it first time round, but it was pretty great.

Did you catch this Pete?

Episode two was even darker and pretty pretty freaking violent.

(I'll never look at a bread-stick the same way ever again..... )
