TV shows coming back... Or starting...What are you waiting for?

[BrAinPaiNt]

Banshee comes back the 9th. Probably my favorite show.

I've kinda fallen for this show too and have gotten past a lot of the things you mention. his cross-dressing computer guy cracks me up.

Walking Dead
Shameless
Justified
Banshee
Vikings

New season of Banshee starts tonight

Not to make this thread Dexter-centric, but what always bothered me was the writing following La Guerta's death. With Angel being her ex-husband and "best friend" you might say, his investigation into her death was pretty much non-existent. Maybe I missed something, but it seemed as if he got over her death too quickly for how much he was involved in her life (both personal and professional).

I can see that being odd and annoying.
I think Angel was pretty down on LaGuerta as a person. He certainly didn't appear to think highly of her at the end.
He almost seemed to view her as a kid that just couldn't get it together.
And he genuinely seemed to like and respect Dexter and his sister.
Like anyone doing anything wrong, at some point all the covering/lying is what gets you.
Dexter was on a string and it was gonna run out.
Show probably should have ended with his death, but that would have been pretty anti-climatic and expected.
By season 2 I would have said I expect it to end with his sister killing him.

Leaving the job and family stuff behind to start new was pretty genius IMHO.
And it seemed to fit the mindset and reality of the situation.
The live by the sword die by the sword thing seemed to constantly put people Dexter cared about at risk.
Once he realized he REALLY cared about those people he had no choice but to leave them in peace.

Basically any police department would have swept it under the rug rather than allow the public to know they had employed a serial killer if given any chance to do so.
I don't think that is sooo crazy. Not when you have people helping you like he did. He basically grew up in the department and knew those cops all his adult life.
He was a pretty carefully crafted psychopath.

Not one of the very best shows of the past decade but it's gotta be in that 2nd tier.

The Walking Dead.

Orphan Black. Tatiana Maslany is one of the most underrated character actresses on television.

At least she gets proper recognition occasionally.

 

[FloridaRob]

just cant get into Viola Davis on Murder. Like the show but she kinds of makes me go ugh. Especially when she is getting all intimate with whoever she is intimate with that night. . I keep seeing her in the Maid Movie saying to the little girl, "I is kind, I is special, I is beautiful" or something like that. Great movie by the way.

I do like me some Clare Danes tho. She might kick someones butt if she doesn't win it.

Remington Steele
Odd Couple

Remington Steele

Wait, what?

 

[morasp]

Wait, what?

I don't know when it is due out but I read they are rebooting it as a half hour show with the main character being the daughter of Laura and Remington.

ooooooookay. A half hour comedy.

I'll pass.

Sigh.


If picked up to series, "Remington Steele" will be reimagined as a half-hour comedy and a sequel to the previous iteration, which ran from 1982 to 1987 on the Peacock network.

I'll give it a try just because I like the original, there aren't too many comedies that I like these days. I actually thought the remake of ironside wasn't too bad but that shows what I know.

New day. Switching from Mondays to Thursday. After Super Bowl.

Walking Dead
The Americans
And I am intrigued by the mini series Sons of Liberty. Especially since they play Paint it Black in the trailer.

The Americans

The Americans! I am practically obsessed with Elizabeth Jennings...I know, some questionable taste on my end. I'm also curious to see what's going to happen to poor old Martha.

I'm 2 episodes into banshee this season and I can't decide if it's gone downhill or if being sober changed my perspective on the show.

it really hasn't advanced much. same thing, different lady, punch punch punch, shoot, shoot, shoot, punch, shoot, stagger stagger, crawl crawl crawl, shoot.

get in a last punch if you have time.

all of that really isn't pushing me away too much, no. I could live with all that and just figure same old same old. however, when billy the bad arse indian comes on the screen and starts talking, someone out there decided to put some effects on his voice that are just unsettling and maybe that's on purpose. make him more evil. great. you win. he's more evil and highly annoying and zero believability.

if it's on i'll watch it, but that's about it this season.

I seen that and keep thinking of the AMC show that debuted last year. It was ok at times and slow in others. Turn: Washingtons Spies...not sure when it comes back on.

Yes it is cooky and silly as ever. But I still watch it despite of it.

Something that got a laugh out of me is when the Crazy guy with the glasses and bow tie walked in the room with Kai and the girl sits up naked...he had that look like...and I thought I was crazy lol

Yeah, I tried watching that and was kind of like "meh". Since this is only 3 nights I figure they'll pack more suspense and action into it. And the guy who played Hank on BB is playing Benjamin Franklin. I guess Sam Adams just makes beer for everybody.

yea, some of the shock value makes it worth while. I guess I may just live with strange indian voices.
