I'm not sure if he's even really dead yet.


Agreed. I'm not sure he's dead yet either.

For Dexter, Mos Def has been my favorite character so far this season.
Not sure what it is, but each scene he's in just stands out.

Dexter need it's own thread? There's way too many spoiler tags in this one.

PARKS AND REC IS BACK! (After a 1.5 episode hiatus from awesomeness, that is)

Tonight's episode was a perfect blend of everything I like about this show.

Chris wasn't the batshit crazy person he's been at times this season. The correct amount of oddness. Andy and April are excellent. Tom's party, particularly the drumline, was hilarious. Jean Ralphio was amusing. And the return of Tom's ex is intriguing. Ron and Leslie's talk was good too, despite there being too many of those types of scenes lately.

If by the first 3 episodes, you mean any part of Season 1, then I beg you to ignore everything you've seen. Season 1 was terrible, and that comes from a huge fan of the show. They did a lot to recharacterize some people and it works brilliantly.

Midway through Season 2, the show hits full stride and it continues through to the present. The show is awesome.

Season 1 is just 6 episodes. Keep watching. But don't put much stock into it. I actually stopped watching the show after Season 1, then started watching again with Season 3 to give it another chance. Season 3 is unbelievably good, and when I caught up on all of Season 2, it was very funny as well.

I read who it is (mainly because Dexter is a show I don't care if spoiled anymore), and it's an interesting enough thing they're doing. It doesn't make Colin Hanks/Olmos any more interesting, but nonetheless..

I'm interested in the Hanks/Olmos plot line. I get the feeling that Olmos is just a figment of Hanks imagination in the same way Dexter's Dad exists.

what i didnt like was claire danes doing it with Brody. it killed the realism of the show. ya shes supposed to be messed up but if she truly believes hes been turned by terrorists after 8 years, why get so close to him. is this her way of going "undercover"?

they made Brody so creepy early in the season and she was so sure he was the guy and just 5 episodes in, they are hooking up.

ill be really disappointed if it turns out Brody is not the prisoner that was turned.

Yep. I like the two new female characters, and I can tolerate Chase. I like Taub's character, but I find every storyline they give him to be dumb and annoying. Foreman is better in his role on the sidelines. Wilson needs more to do.

I hope they can give the show a strong ending in what is almost certainly its final season. House needs some finality to his character.

That is her claim to fame.

Oh, right. Because a woman's acting talent is located in her breasts.

There's plenty of attractive females on TV that don't require me to sit through a cavalcade of terrible attempts at jokes.

She kind of looks like my 8th grade girlfriend. But with enormous boobs.

I don't like that she has opinions. It would be better if she was mute.

Everytime that Whitney airs while Community is on hiatus, I'm going to consider homicide.

I've never met or seen one person on the internet say that Whitney is a good show. I don't even understand what kind of person it would appeal to.

I think there's a huge conspiracy going on. Televisions being programmed to turn on while people aren't home and give Whitney unnaturally large ratings.

CBS is probably behind it, but they tried to throw investigators off the trail by boosting Whitney's ratings too.

Whitney got a 2.1 which isn't even GOOD and it was only doing that well because it had The Office lead in. When it moves to Wednesday it's going to bleed even more viewers than it has been at a much faster rate.

Have we discussed why The New Girl had like 3 episodes and then took a month off? I was just on the wiki page and after 10.6 million viewers for the premier it's dropped to under 7 million for the latest episode. WTF would you take a show off the air for a month when it got such a great start?

Snippy & Snappy: This title alone is a better sitcom than Whitney.

Whitney makes me miss Outsourced. And I hated Outsourced with a passion......don't even get me started on Two Broke Girls and their endless hipster jokes.

I've watched Whitney and I think it's an alright show. I actually think that she is the weakest part of the show. The main guy is considerably funnier than she is. Also her cocky intro about the show being recorded in front of a live studio audience makes me want to break my TV.

My mom has this theory that CBS has all these rated top show because they pump out super strong signals that reach houses out in the middle of no where. They apparently reach 96.98% of all households according to wikipedia, I wonder what it is for other networks.
