[ice grillin you]

yeah the west coast surfing culture doesnt exactly fall into my wheelhouse

[Susquehanna Birder]

That's just the framework for the show. There's a lot of bizarre metaphysical stuff going on that's quite heady. I know you hate people dissecting shows, so I can see where there's not much there for you.

The more I think about this past episode, the better it gets. I'm going to have to DVR it and watch it a couple more times in an effort to absorb more of it.

[Zanshin]

Worth watching, eh?  I caught a couple of minutes of it, and it held my attention....but I wasn't sure if it was worth the investment of keeping up.  Maybe I'll try to Tivo it.

[MURP]

i watched the first 4 episodes and then gave up.   couldnt keep my interest.

I was about off the wagon last week, but this week brought me right back on.

Cissy jacking off her son when she was on acid? Haaaaaaaaa

What  a farged up episode.

[The BIGSTUD]

Dexter season 2 episodes 1 and 2 leaked online for those that are that desperate.

[Father Demon]

I love Dexter.

But I'm not that desperate.

[SunMo]

i'm desperate for Season 1 episode 3, i know it's on Showtime OnDemand, but it's not in HD, so i have to wait for sunday

[MDS]

I would, but then you're looking at a 3 month wait for episode 3. So pass.

What's that batting average, about 25-30%? We knew The Wire wasn't even on the shortlist, but still, it's a joke. Friday Night Lights was on the shortlist and still didn't get anything. Also they doubled up a lot of actors from TV shows for supporting roles, which is just silly. And the fact that Aida Turturo and Lorraine Bracco got nominated is horrid. Janice was in one episode this season. Melfi had small bits in most episode expect one where she had a nice little subplot. Clearly, they just wanted to show The Sopranos as much love as possible.

[ice grillin you]

the sopranos was so awful this year...was janice even on this season?...lol @ bracco getting a nod...she sat in her chair and talked in that monotone voice the same way she has for the last four years of the show...tony and hers realtionship is what makes her not her axcting...in fact she doesnt even act......what the hell

the emmys need to revamp their whole nomination process....its ridiculous that they are based on single episodes...it needs to be turned over to the critics who actually watch full seasons of many shows


its unbelievable how the wire is literally blackballed by hollywood...how does it not get a single nomination...if nothing else for casting...the way they can find virtual no name actors to fill roles perfectly is amazing

[Susquehanna Birder]

Kinda funny to see Ricky Gervais competing for the same award. Ricky wins either way, I guess.

[MDS]

This film has been a labor of love and conscience for everyone who worked on it. After a six-year development process, even Academy members don't have any idea how much their validation means to [co-executive producer] Tom Thayer and me as well as everyone involved in this project."

Dick Wolf you are pathetic.

[Father Demon]

If I could farg either Jaime Pressly or Jenna Fisher, I certainly would.
