TV Shows

watching the 2 of you argue over who has better taste in teevee shows is like watching sigfried and roy argue over who wears tighter pants.  either way, you're both gay fargtards who should get mauled to death by a tiger. 

i enjoyed their bickering quite a bit

hey Todd, I finally started watching The Office.  Did a quick review of this season's shows a couple of weeks ago then went back and watched season 1 and the first part of 2 last night.  After watching the pilot again I remembered why I never picked up on it right away.  Carell's character was brutal but became less obnoxious once the supporting cast was established...

yup, that was the point. david brent was just a total icehole and it was cringeworthyly hysterical to watch.

but show is as easy flowing, rewatchable and simple as tv gets. you dont have to fall head over heals in love with it, but i cant see how someone cant find it entertaining. unless your igy. his taste sucks balls.

i know he's talking about the american Office, but i think Extras is better than the BBC office, more Stephen Merchant = gold.

i can't wait for Gervais' new show on HBO

[General_Failure]

Gervais seems to be incredibly popular for someone who hasn't really had much success.

[SunMo]

he's had success in his own country i believe more than here.  i don't really care though as i think he's hilarious.  his HBO standup special at MSG was very good.

johnny you do know that show is just animated re-telling of old podcasts? it looks pretty good, still.

though right after it is the life and times of tim which is hands down the funniest show on tv.

[SunMo]

i knew it was animated, but i didn't know it was of old podcasts...either way i'll watch.

i might if i even knew what game of thrones even is.  can't say i ever heard of it. 

[General_Failure]

I've heard of it, but never read it.

it has a ton of buzz amongst much of the comic con set

i think its skews towards an older crowd tho....but im not sure

That's a red flag for me right there.

I looked at the wiki page for the novel(s): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_of_thrones

In the Free City of Pentos, Magister Illyrio Mopatis and the exiled Prince Viserys Targaryen conspire to sell Viserys's thirteen-year-old sister Daenerys to Khal Drogo of the Dothraki.

Sounds like a real page turner.

that explains why i've never heard of it.  also explains why i'll probably never watch it.
