wait so the wire is now pushed back to jan 28?

[MDS]

no they had the wrong date. hbo sent out a press release with the 6th as the date.

[Susquehanna Birder]

Whatever, though.  The chick who plays his partner makes Mr. Happy twitch like a MOFO.

Which one?

[NGM]

Jesus Christ those first two are hot.  I can't figure out which one I like more.  Either way, they both make good shows a hell of a lot better. 

[Rome]

I actually like the girl in Life better.  They ugly her down a lot in the show but she's still screaming hot.  Don't get me wrong, though.  The other two broads are ridiculously hot, especially the girl from Journeyman.  Gotta love that amerasian/polynesian look.

[MDS]

Sarah Sahi, from Life, was the girl from The Sopranos that Tony smoked peyote with. She is outrageously gorgeous.

[The BIGSTUD]

Sarah Shahi is amazing. She was a Cowboys cheerleader so that hurts her some. Moon Bloodgood(the first one) was a Lakers dance girl before she got into acting. I'm a huge fan of both. They are incredibly hot.

Yvonne Strahovski is really hot in Chuck too. Chuck has some hot girls on that show.

[Father Demon]

I watched my first episode of Frank TV last night.  Boy, does that show suck ass or what??

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I watched my first episode of Frank TV last night.  Boy, does that show suck ass or what??

I made it about 3 minutes in to one episode, and that was that.

[Dillen]

It's a decent idea, but the way they set up the show is absolutely terrible. I think the commercial where he was Robert DeNiro was kind of funny, but everything else sucks.

WGA is on the money except for Entourage, which was utter garbage this year.

As usual, the Globes are more about whose "hot" and who is a movie star more than what is good, except for Mad Men and Damages, which were nice to see.

My picks for the categories are in bold You care.

WGA is on the money except for Entourage, which was utter garbage this year.

what was the most recent season, season 4?

i never saw that show in my life and then a few weeks ago i started netflixing them and got into it.  i've seen up to season 3, part 2. 

kevin dillon has really grown over the years.  in the beginning he made me cringe whenever he was on screen, now he's one of the better characters on the show.

[MDS]

yea, not sure how netflix will break them down. but they had 3 regular seasons, then 8 stupid episodes with the final sopranos episodes and a regular 4th season. everything they aired in 2007, 20 episodes, was shtein.

[ice grillin you]

every entourage episode is exactly the same

what are the wga's?

[Feva]

what are the wga's?

You should know.
