HIMYM is great, but like 80% of the humor comes from NPH's character. Barney Stinson is one of the coolest characters i've ever seen in a comedy show.

I just finished watching it. Neil Patrick Harris is the best comedic actor of this generation, I hope more people will realise this and give him good film roles.

It's a great show, and I love how different it is from other laugh track-sitcoms. The characters actually laugh at each others jokes and there are no stupid pauses for laughter whenever someone says something funny.

This is my weekly post where I point out how amazing Dexter is. Him being caught by the skinner is going to be so fucking awesome. I'm proud of this season for mirroring the second book of the series yet making it twenty times better. I'm going to be sad when it's over and I have to wait another ten months before it comes back.

Finished season 3 of The Sopranos.

Jackie Jr. you had it coming as soon as Tony caught you in the strip club. Then you rob a card game with 2 made guys. What a dumb move.

I can't wait to see season 4 when they kill Ralphy.

I think last weeks episode was the best of the season. Him sneeking into Migels house then leading him to the dry cleaners was awesome.

Is there a 4th book written?

They're making a film to be released in 2009. But that's it.

After the one-hour TV special Say Goodnight To The Bad Guys airs on Dec. 7, a new Trailer Park Boys movie — tentatively called Countdown To Liquor Day — will be released in Canada next October.

"But, after that, there will be no more. Yes, it's the end of Trailer Park Boys," Clattenburg wrote.

That sucks, but I guess I will have to see both of those. And then just re-watch the seasons.

Nope. The third one sucked too and added a supernatural element to it all. If I haven't mentioned it already, the new season is based somewhat off the second book.

Oh really? I didn't know this. But really all of Dexter has some supernatural stuff going on. Like how he talks to Harry a lot. Will there be a 4th season?

I've heard two more seasons have been ordered, I'm not totally sure though.

In the third book, he is tracking down murders done by a Babylonian cult and basically he kills because he is possessed by one of the God's evil children or something like that. I didn't like it enough to remember it exactly.

I'm interested to see how long the show can remain good. Tracking down a serial killer every season can't be done forever can it? They seem to be trying to develop more of the other characters this season so that should be good.

Simpler shows have been on for longer. I think Dexter could have a good run. Anyway, season finale tonight? I have two friends coming over, they missed last weeks episode, and we are going to watch both tonight. Should be a good night.

As I haven't seen anything of "Dexter", I think I might have to check it out and get season one.

DevotedWalnut · **Posted:** Mon Dec 08, 2008 9:03 am

Well if tonight was the season finale of Dexter then i'm somehwat upset. There are several unanswered questions, I know they can start the next season off right where this one ended but still. And since when does Dexter strangle people? I know he wanted people to think that the skinner killed him, but I don't remember the skinner ever strangling anybody. What about Dexters wedding? What about George King? Somebody please explain this to me.

I also watched the Trailer Park Boys speciel tonight (or so I think it was). It was funny, funnier than enything from last season. But if that was going to be the last ever tv aired episdoe, why couldn't they of got Corey and Trevor back to do just one more episode? They better be in the movie. And the way this special ended, I can't wait to see the movie. Lahey is in some trouble.

I've only seen the first 15 minutes, looks hilarious. Anyway, the guys playing Corey and Trevor are really pissed at the creators of the show, so it's unlikely that they'll make an appearance in the film.

You need to see it. It was very funny. I'd watch it again. They guy that play Lahey is perfect for the job. They could of not got anybody better.

Yeah. It was surprisingly good.

Just finished s04 of The Wire. This show is a masterpiece. I can't believe it took me this long to properly watch it. Nothing I've seen comes close to it. It's so subtle and well-written. There are no cliffhangers, or "OH SHIT" moments. Well, there are, but for completely different reasons compared to other shows. It's such a breath of fresh air after having seen so much crowd-pleasing shit where every episode is designed to make you want to watch the next one, without any regard to quality or originality.

I've heard The Sopranos is equally good. I know what I'm watching next.

Only seen the first episode of Teh Sopranose, and it's intrigued me enough to want to see the rest. Want to try and finish the X Files I'm on at the moment, first. And STILL have s1 of The Wire waiting for me, unopened...

It isn't the finale. The next episode, the finale, he has to deal with Ramone and the wedding. He strangled him because Miguel strangled Ellen Wolf. I'm confused since he killed him already, he can't flay him in the same manner the Skinner did everyone else so how will it get pinned on the Skinner. I don't like how by developing everyone's character, they simply get them a date.
