fommes 153 Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 One show that I just don't get that people keep watching it is Two and a Half Men. Don't get me wrong, Sheen is terrific as always, but that other guy is probably one of the unfunniest characters in TV comedy ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Two And A Half Men was pretty damn good in its first few seasons, but since nothing on CBS gets cancelled, it keeps pushing on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep forgetting the feeling of actually laughing while watching TV shows, and constantly at that!And you get that from 30 Rock? Seriously?Yes I do. There's a funny joke approximately twice a minute, some times more, some times less. I rarely laugh out loud while watching anything (unless I've been drinking and/or with friends) but this show just makes me feel good. Jack Donaghy is one of television's finest creations.

Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 One viewing of Airplane is enough to make me hysterical.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Caught up on Family Guy. Superb premiere. It makes me want John Morris' score to Clue even more! The Rush Limbaugh episode was terrible. The last one was okay with hilarious moments. Diabeto had me losing it.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksZVXqJJejYI still need to catch up on Boardwalk Empire and Bored To Death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,258 Posted October 14, 2010 Author Share Posted October 14, 2010 Yea I actually kinda liked the Family Guy premiere, despite not liking much the show has done for years now.Though, I guess I was more impressed by the technical aspects, music, shot composition, etc, then I was the comedy. I don't think I laughed a WHOLE lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I laughed a WHOLE lotSometimes the comedy is not what it's about. "And Then There Were Fewer" is MacFarlane flexing his muscles. This is not regular television. An hour long episode with a 3 minute opening sequence? Top notch CGI and animation that puts The Simpsons Movie to shame? An orchestral score using John Morris' Clue? These are all reasons why he deserves to be the highest paid producer in the history of television.Have you seen the episode "Brian And Stewie?" No music, no credits, one location. It was MacFarlane acting with himself for 30 minutes, and it was actually emotionally moving. I never thought I'd feel that way about Family Guy.

Ollie 1,059 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Now that most of the good shows came to an end last season, I find myself watching less mainstream TV. Currently I watch Two And A Half Men, Rules OF Engagement, How I met Your Mother, The Big Bang Theory, @*$*@# My Father Says, Family Guy, The Cleveland Show and American Dad.Most of my TV time is spent on HGTV, Discovery, History Channel, National Geographic or The Food Channel.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 After LOST ended I don't watch much TV anymore either, especially when they air. I just use On Demand and Hulu. If I do it's the Travel Channel 90% of the time, or Discovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 I lost interest in 24 after the penultimate season because I didn't think they would be able to top it, so I left the arrest of Tony Almeda's evil twin brother be my final satisfied memory of the show, though I did watch his final sign-off to Chloe.I don't watch shows anymore on a regular basis. Just sports. If I'm bored, I'll flip through and find something at random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 1,059 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 I wasn't too disappointed with the ending but I do feel they set the story up for too much and then deviated from it. While I can appreciate the story becoming more about the characters, I felt that many important things were pushed aside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Crichton 4 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Last night's South Park was so wrong, and yet so right. One thing that's puzzling me, why haven't they started broadcasting the show in widescreen? I know they've been making it that way for years.South Park and Survivor are the only US TV shows I'm watching regularly right now. Along with of course Doctor Who, and Sarah Jane (series 4 just started, first story was...not very good).Anyone check out The Event? Worth the time?

John Crichton 4 Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 They haven't converted their SD broadcast to widescreen the way a lot of networks have done. It's not really a complaint, just an observation. A curiosity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
