Funny how there's no room for more than one black guy on the show ( not counting Michonne ). As soon as that guy in the woods appeared the black prisoner was doomed.

I just can't stand her "GRR I'M ANGRY ALL THE TIME GRR GIVE MY SWORD BACK GRR I HATE THE WORLD" attitude. There's just very little substance to her character (so far at least).

lol. T Dawg is dead, we better drag that prisoner out of the other cell block, black dude entering the prison from the woods, shoot the prisoner. Lol. I don't even know the prisoner's name, but I know the new guy is Tyrese.

Her character isn't supposed to have substance. She is simply supposed to be a cold killing machine. Which she does rather well. I don't think she'll ever make us chuckle or warm up to her like Daryl or something, because she is just pure badass. No frills. From what I know about the comic I totally expected that last episode to not end so well for the gang, but either it will come later or maybe the show is refusing to go into that dark territory.

No offence, my American buddies, but this one has got to be labelled "only in America."

Quote:

Detective Raymond Cote told NBC that Gurman was arguing with his girlfriend of three and a half years over whether the world could be overrun by zombies.

"I just know that he felt very adamant that there could be some type of military mishap that would result in some sort of virus or something being released that could cause terrible things to happen," Detective Cote said.

But Ms Gelderman told her boyfriend the idea was absurd.

"She felt that it was ridiculous," Detective Cote said.

Two episodes into the second season of Parks and Rec and I enjoy it much more now. It doesn't hurt to have Louis CK on it.

Is he a regular or just a guest appearence?

Michonne's refusal to engage in the simplest forms of communication really irks me. HEY GUYS THAT BIG VIOLENT ASSHOLE DUDE THAT I KNOW IS CALLED MERLE JUST KIDNAPPED AN ASIAN GUY AND A GIRL THAT HE SEEMED TO KNOW THAT ARE PART OF YOUR GROUP. ALSO I KNOW THAT THIS BLONDE CHICK NAMED ANDREA I'VE BEEN HANGING AROUND WITH FOR 8 MONTHS KNOWS MERLE, SO I THINK SHE MIGHT KNOW YOUR GROUP AS WELL. WHAT'S THAT? YOU'RE MERLE'S BROTHER? MAYBE WE SHOULD TALK SOME MORE ABOUT OUR PLAN SO NOTHING STUPID HAPPENS LIKE DARYL STAYING BEHIND TO FIND HIS BROTHER. DARYL, YOUR BROTHER IS A VIOLENT PSYCHOPATH WHO WANTS TO KILL EVERYONE, DON'T STAY BEHIND TO FIND HIM.

Would that have been so difficult. Christ. I don't even need her to have substance, it just annoys me that someone whose communication skills are the level of a stubborn three year old is all of a sudden real important for the survival of the group I've developed empathy for.

I think he is in a few episode at most.

I think she has some mental issues ( Michonne ).

The latest Simpsons episode was mocking hipsters. I figured it was worth watching. Either I had become a little de-sensitized to Simpsons humor or am in a fragile state being finals week, but I laughed quite a bit. Ralph telling the tattoo artist, "I want kitty whiskers." And Marge calling moms that are pressuring to breast feed "nipple Nazis". It had its moments albeit fell into the trap of being a little too grand as the newer seasons do.

I've stopped watching the simpsons, got bored with it, same with family guy actually, still watch the odd episode of South Park but not regularly, come to think of it I really don't watch a lot of TV

I don't know how I feel about that last Dexter episode. I want my fucking happy ending goddammit.

RelentlessOblivion · **Posted:** Mon Dec 10, 2012 6:51 am

I think Dexter is better when spent lurking in the shadows, when it's dark and you get to see who Dexter really is, I enjoy the episodes where it's happier much less

Fawk you then.

even the happy episodes though are better then the drivel forced down our throats by shows we are apparently meant to like i.e. soap operas or whatever you americans call them

No, you're probably right. Most happy episodes in the show early on were kinda awkward, but also necessary. This newest season has just got me hook, line and sinker with the mushy stuff.

They really need to kill somebody off. Quinn, Batista, somebody, just to spice things up a little more heading into the final season.

Bautista is retiring. And that finale looks pretty exciting albeit not the the exciting that I'm used to from the show. At this point in the season, he is supposed to be locked in a battle of strength and wits some killer, not fucking LaGuerta.
