Cocks Cable posted:What's the non-spoiler skinny on Jericho? Does this turn into a good show? When does it hit its stride? Jericho is a strange little show. A lot of the time, the town seems to have amnesia about being in a post-apocalyptic-style situation. Some of the acting is pretty good, but Hawkins is definitely the highlight. I'd say to keep going, just because it's not that long, and it's pretty solid-ish throughout the run. Nothing special.

pigdog posted:Going to watch Carnivale next. AV Club just chose Carnivale as one of their TV Club Classic series, so they'll be reviewing it every week if you want to keep up. They did the first episode last week. That being said, I've been slowly making my way through Alias. In the beginning of the second season now, and it really feels, through and through, like a J. J. show. I'm loving everything about it so far - the characters, the tenseness of some of the missions, the mythology. I know I'm in for a serious downward spiral though, which is so disappointing.

I binged through the first season of Game of Thrones right after I finished the first book, and it was a pretty interesting experience. My mind kept getting caught up on the changes between the two, but man, is some of the casting phenomenal. Iain Glen has actually made me like Jorah more than I liked him in the books. It's incredibly enjoyable, though, and I can see it getting somewhat difficult to follow if you haven't read the books. I've also been watching Breaking Bad steadily, but I've had to do it in bite-size chunks instead of binges. I find myself unable to take the grimness for long stretches of time, and the intensity is just off the charts. It almost becomes unenjoyable and unbearable, which is why I like it so much.

I've been attempting to binge BSG for the past couple of months now, but holy hell, is it hard to get through. Not because it's not quality, but more because of how intense and relentless it is. There are very few cheery things aboard Galactica. Does anyone else ever feel this way about some shows? That they're really hard to digest in large chunks? Anyway, I'm in the middle of season 3. Enjoying it thus far.
