EDIT 5/9/2010: New Breaking Bad, Bitches!  

--- 
This is similar to the "Rate the Last Film You Watched" thread, but this time, it's for TV!
 
As of 5/1/2010, Breaking Bad, Lost, Mad Men, and et cetera have gained a lot of discussion. This is no flaw, they are all amazing shows and deserve water-cooler style talk. The problem I see here is that we litter this forum with several posts about the same shows over and over and over and over and over and over and over- 
 
My point being, I have created a topic, this thing you are in, where in you can discuss current TV shows. I am doing this in attempt to combine all of the threads out there talking about such shows. You can talk about Breaking Bad's newest episode (poor Hank), the final times of the survivors of LOST (poor Jin and Sun) and so forth here. I'll keep updating the title with the names of shows who just had a new episode, so that you know where to go for discussion.  
 
I'm hoping that this could get stickied like the Rate the Last Film thread, but for now... discuss!
 
And, ay yo, this place god SPOILERS, DAWG. 
    

No Caption Provided
 
Don't come in here expecting spoiler free posts; this is to discuss shit in depth. 
 
Again, this place is for ANY show that is currently airing new episodes; sorry, no rerun stuff... though I have been watching Chappelle's Show every wednesday 
I'm RICH, BIYATCH!

Breaking Bad [season 3, episode One Minute] 

Season 3 so far has been quite interesting, taking a strange turn from the normal... then again, Breaking Bad never really stays put for long. This is the episode that had me thinking "JESUS CHRIST" from the beginning, and never had me uninterested. I constantly feel worse for Hank as he just tries dealing with what's happening, and it's a great turn of the tables, wherein I feel more for Hank than Jesse. That scene with Hank in the elevator? Tragic! Also, it was really well directed. As of now, I just kind of pity Jesse, and have lost a little respect for him. Am I the only one feeling this way? I mean sure, shit has gone way down for him, but his actions are just not justifiable to me; he's taken the wrong turns, I think. 
 
There was a good lack of Skyler here, getting us back to basics of cooking and danger. The action in the episode was excellent. My eyes did not leave the screen one second; anything could've happened really, and shit, that was ridiculously intense and well pulled off. Plus, I'm glad that the twins that the twins are gone... their over-boding horror movie like presence was beginning to piss me off. And yet, I felt for them slightly, due to the quick flashback in the beginning... still... nothing else for me to enjoy there. It is nice to move on. 
 
How things are going to turn out from now, I do not know. But these relationships the characters share have taken so many twists and turns, that I feel that they can't help but go back in some direction they came... unless Hank starts doing crystal meth, while still trying to catch Heisenberg... while smoking his product o.o 
 
I got a list here, bitches. 
 
Only disappointment? STILL. NO. ROOF. PIZZA. 
Come on, Walt. Skyler had it coming. 

      Just one toss...

The next episode of BB is going to be really interesting, seeing how badly Hank has been wounded, how Walt deals with it etc.

@Dejkrigeren: I couldn't tell, but in the sneak peak for the upcoming episode, who was in the bed next to Jesse? If it was Hank, that'd be kind of funny and interesting, but i couldn't tell. 
 
@mshaw006: I shall watch this one, for I haven't seen the others fully!

I think one of the twins is still alive.  Didn't it show him in the hospital during the preview for the next episode?  It was like half a second, but it looked like he was getting up and ripping out all his wires and IV"s and stuff.

Lost has been incredible.
 
Breaking Bad has been jaw dropping.
 
Clone Wars had a fantastic Season 2 finale.
 
Stargate Universe is an absolute bore.
 
Fringe is awesome.
 
And Community is the most hilarious thing on TV.

I'm really looking forward to the seeing  Supernatural tonight. And Justified too, I guess. Anyone else watch those? 
 
EDIT: This week's Justified was actually pretty good,. Make that last week's, hulu has a delayed air date. Supernatural is definitely picking up, but still not hitting the level it used to.

It's a Southern cop show (set in Kentucky) about this one dude with a hat. The plots aren't anything really special but they're still good. It has a nice vibe to it, and there's a lot of opportunity for  doing something unique, what with multi-episode sub-plots and such. They have episodes on Hulu if you wanna check it out.

@nofx4208:   I LOVED Southland.  Fuck NBC for canceling.   Just checked the show's wiki page, its been picked up for a third season by TNT.  I can't wait.
 
I'm looking forward to Fringe these days.  I've stopped watching LOST a few weeks ago, now when I try to catch up I'm like "eh" or "what."

@nofx4208:  NBC canceled it after the first season.  TNT picked it up and aired the second season then decided to buy a third season.  I'm pretty stoaked for this.
 
Wiki:
 

Shortly before its scheduled premiere, NBC moved the opening of its second season to October 23, 2009, citing the need to promote the show more fully. On October 8, 2009, NBC abruptly announced that the series had been cancelled.

On November 2, 2009, TNT announced it has purchased the rights to Southland 's original seven episodes, as well as six completed episodes from its second season. Southland began airing on TNT on January 12, 2010. The network said it had no plans to change the look of the show. On April 26, 2010, TNT announced it had picked up Southland for a ten-episode third season to begin airing in January 2011.

The latest episode of Lost was fantastic, i want this series to finish off with a huge face-off between John Locke and Jack Shepherd. With Jack winning of course,The Candidate made me hate Locke.

@teh_destroyer: my friend caught me up, and jesus christ that would be a good ending. It'd also be interesting to see Desmond save them again (my own personal fantasy) or for a- 
BATTLE BETWEEN 15 DIFFERENTLY THEMED LOCKE CLONES. This will lead in to my idea of a Lost spin-off: Locked in Time 
Yup, Locke is constantly shot through time, in attempt to make everything not even happen. But complications arise. (My friend and I made a Little Big Planet level, look it up!) 
In seriousness though, I am shocked on how ahead of time they planned certain themes, like Black vs. White (heh) Clever, clever, Abrams!

@organicalistic_: if memory serves correctly, It's called Locked in Time, literally. I'll get back to you with confirmation, but it takes place in Swastika covered Nazi Germany. It's fun!

Jack had a really good theory when he believed the bomb wouldn't go off when the counter hit zero.It almost seemed right that if John did kill them, he would never be able to leave the island. So John would have to keep them alive. Desmond and Richard are my 2 favorite characters that were already on the island. Ben also made a fantastic bad guy. Only like 2 more episodes left right? Damn :(

I'll admit I regret not keeping up with some of Fringe, and probably will be sad for not keeping up with Justified. Liking the new Dr. though on Who.

In the last episode of Lost, why the fuck would they do some background stories on Jacob when they basically killed him off like 2 seasons ago?There are only 2 episodes left, don't waste it on shit like this.

More Lost in 2 days, I want to see some epic fights with more main characters dying with only leaving Jack and possibly James alive in the end. We shall see, hopefully no more stupid back ground stories about characters that are already dead.

I was only disappointed with the ending, granted it was the natural progression. I just would have liked to see that storyline extended. House and The Office are the only two shows I watch religiously. The Office season finale was nowhere near as good as the finales for its previous seasons. The Office always ends with a cliff hanger, and this year it was lame.

The series finale of 24 is very disappointing.
It felt like something is missing. There's no climax whatsoever.

Ending of Lost was good, yet still lacking in ..... something, anything. I guess the whole world just wanted more.
 
End of Season of House was interesting. It can't possibly work can it? Just another relationship for house to fuck up. He has a self destructive personality.Its gonna take some good writing to make next season even slightly believable.
 
Stargate universe is sucking hard. Story exposition is soooo sloooooow. 
 
V is kicking ass. Kill Tyler though. Whiny kids have never been good characters. Whole show seems very cheap though. Definitely needs a bigger budget for next season. How awesome in Morena Baccarin. She was born for that role.
 
Dont think i watch anything else...
