What TV shows are people watching?

On television right now, I've been watching Grimm. It has promise. I still don't know if I'm totally sold on the lead actor carrying the series yet, but the show itself earns a thumbs up from me.

Just finished watching Game of Thrones last night which is easily one of the best HBO series' and deserves to be put at the same tier as other greats like The Wire, and The Sopranos. I really hope the show doesn't fall into the same pit that Rome did and just become too costly to warrant a 3rd season. Tonight I'm going to start watching Boardwalk Empire because so many people I sometimes pretend to respect in real life have raved about it. A lot of people on MB who I do actually respect have said good things about it too so I probably won't be disappointed.

I've been watching Suits. I think it's one of the better shows I've been introduced to this year but then I'm a big fanboy of legal dramas. A good cast of characters and the pacing of the series is well done too. I'd recommend this to anybody. Also

I was wondering if someone could point my to the direction of any thread that has recommendations of tv shows that contains good music. I would really appreciate it.

Just got Duckman season 1 & 2 on DVD so I'm looking forward to revisiting this series.

I'm currently obsessing over the second season of Boardwalk Empire. I think it's pretty much the best show on tv right now.

Always Sunny, Community and Breaking Bad mainly.

I've just started this season and it definitely really builds on what the first season started.

I just got caught up on this seasons Walking Dead and the writers should be commended for managing to turn a zombie apocalypse into a goddamn boring soap opera, that takes some real effort. This plot with the little girl was played out 4 episodes ago and is now just a plot device to keep them in one location. I can't help but think the writers have missed the point of why people watch zombie movies and play zombie games, it's not to take every day issues and exacerbate them with the threat of cannibalism, it's to attach sharp things to other sharp things and then bash a zombies head in. If you're bringing emotion into the whole thing it needs to be something relateable to the circumstances, like realizing how fast and easy it is to revert back to barbaric ways, and while they're kind of acknowledging it, they're doing it in a very coy way. So yeah... I'll watch the next episode, but unless it blows my mind I don't think I'll pick it up after the mid-season break.

Veronica Mars

Out of all the tv shows that I watched, I am going to miss this one the most.

If you haven't watched this you definitely should. They put two people into a fake reality TV show similar to the Bachelor and have a bunch of crazy characters and situations without revealing that the whole thing is fake. Situations include the host and a contestant having an affair and all of the minorities being voted off first.
