3. Good News Week (ABSOLUTE gold. Constantly one of my favourite shows)
4. Scrubs Seasons 1-7 (Nothing brings a smile to my face easier than Scrubs. Ive got my DVD collection going whenever there's nothing on. Waiting on season 8)
5. Flashpoint (Interesting pilot to say the least)
6. The Simpsons
7. Family Guy
8. American Dad
9. UFC Wired
10. Louis Theroux
11. Dexter

I cannot wait till the new season of Supernatural and I'm also really keen on seeing an episode of The Cleveland Show, but wont be able to till Im uncapped :(

1. Curb Your Enthusiasm - Worst episode of the season, but still by far the best show I watched this week, and you'll soon see why
2. The Office - Good god this was bad. Its like a cartoon now. The "mafia" storyline was epic failure.
3. 30 Rock - Atrocious. Show is fucking horrible now

Don't watch TV much and now Entourage is over. However, I have been watching all 6 seasons of The Larry Sanders Show. Sad that I'm on the last season, but its a great show. Jeffrey Tambor in his prime.

Which episode is this? I just watched the wedding one and it was one of my favourite Office eps ever.

Re: Rank the shows you're watching each week

The wedding one was fine. The one i just watched an hour ago about the Italian insurance salesman was fucking horrible. All the characters are just parodies of themselves and the writing sucks now.

I'm talking about last week, including the shows that aired Sunday October 18th. I didn't post my rankings following South Park last Wednesday.

1. Californication
2. South Park

Both of them very enjoyable television this week.

Re: Rank the shows you're watching each week

I have eight shows from the last two days alone that I have yet to watch. All I've watched is Top Chef and Project Runway the last two days.

And Monk and White Collar will be added later today.

And I'd have a hard time figuring out last week due to watching two weeks worth of shows in two nights, and watching a whole season of another (CASTLE, anyone who doesn't watch this FAILS AT LIFE. I SAID IT.) to catch up in a weekend.

Would anyone give a shit if I just made random comments on shows here since I clearly can't keep up? (And does just ranking them really matter?)
Joe' wrote:I also watched the new Jenna Elfman show. Not very proud of it, though, that's why I'm not ranking it. I'm also still catching up with Weeds.

Fucking shit. I've watched every episode of this. It's in-between (okay no, WAY BELOW) all the other CBS ones (How I Met, Two and Half, Big Bang Theory) and I do other stuff during it but it's one of those shows where main characters are all absolute fail, but the side characters make it mediocre. The "stoner" friend (they can't say it of course) and the two friends of Elfman are pretty solid, but all the lead drama is worthless. And honestly, if you could kick out the main characters, bring in back the black guy and add more of the work characters, this would be a good show. They're just strangled by the two leads and the whole purpose.

I should note that I watched half of Gary Unmarried and New Adventures of Old Christine as they were on when I tended to eat or play DEFENSE GRID last year. This Elfman show (Accidentally on Purpose) is far worse than Gary, which is far worse than Old Christine. (Which has degraded since they stopped making it epic "Elaine as a mother" comedy.)

Alright...

Let's comment on some other stuff from last week shall we?

Hank - Failed when it got a laugh track, it proves even Kesley Grammer can't save everything (EVEN THOUGH HE ALMOST DID WITH THE ICE CREAM EPISODE!)
The Middle - Blech. I was on board when paired with Hank. But. It's Malcom in the Middle from a different perspective.
Modern Family - Picking up, but the hype around it has put it down, it is building up though. The split episodes fail, it needs to involve them all as much as it can.
Cougar Town - BEST SHOW NO ONE HERE IS WATCHING. You like Scrubs? You like Spin City? Same guy, same humor. Different perspective, but delivers 4/5 weeks. Maybe the best new show of the season, by far. I love this series. Did I mention I watch Bravo and Project Runway?

Community - Up and down, and yes, Joel McHale is not GREAT, this series depends on the rest of the people, like Seinfeld did. Joel can carry a bit, as Jerry did, but you need the rest to move it into epic. Still working on it.
Parks and Recreation - Best season yet! Out of two! Been solid, I don't really want to see "development" on this as much as the Office, but more of creating humor out of obvious situations. I doubt progressives can do that though.
The Office - Come on. It'll take a lot to kick me off at this point. I LIKED "MAFIA" because it was the old school "Michael not really but thinks he's over his head" vibe.
30 Rock - Fuck. Again, only watched first two episodes of the season. (Fri/Sat if not going out is when I tend to catch up. Since I can bang out like six episodes of the backlog in two and a half hours.) But hot damn. Delivering like mad.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia - Best show only a select few are watching on here. And you've already missed what, four seasons of the funniest show you've never seen? (Provided you haven't seen Arrested, or aren't socially a failure.)

Monk - Last season. Same old, same old, with some little fun. Basically, we're sitting around waiting for the Trudy solving that ends the season DS9 style. Any show that says, DS9 ended with epic end, we're going to do it, justifies my sticking around for every season.
Psych - Have you seen this show? Do you like it? If you answer both as yes, you are a great human, even if you're behind. Because you realize this is near the peak of great programming. It is literally impossible to hate this show after say, two episodes or so.
White Collar - Okay, USA is 5/5 for Monk, Psych, Burn Notice, Royal Pains and now White Collar. How are they doing this? They have five shows that are better than any five shows on any other network. Royal Pains I can give you a pass, White Collar is new. Monk requires some past and quirk. But if you start with Psych and Burn Notice from the start, and hate those shows after a season, you're not only an idiot, but you're worse than Hitler. Even Hitler would've liked those shows. And he would've not done the Holocaust because he was too busy watching the awesome.
