american horror story is intriguing. 

as long as the young maid is in epsiodes, i will be watching.  p.s. coach eric taylor's wife is a solid actress.

Okay. Breaking Bad is a fantastic show. I never suspected anything different but I am glad I can finally say that. I'm only a season in but so far its been on point.

It starts to get a bit cringe inducing in Season 3 but Seasons 1 and 2 are probably some of the best episodes outside of Homicide: Life on the Streets Season 1 and Season 2 of The Shield.

It gets into "really?  no way" ville towards the end of the third season but it's still really solid.

By the way, watched the last four episodes of "Friday Night Lights" last night and almost cracked a tear.  What a great, great show.  "Texas forever, Six."

Thoughts on Episode 2?

Is the Tate dead/a ghost... or does he just have the ability to appear like that?

Kind of had a "The Strangers" feel to the episode last night.

There was a lot of great scenes in FNL but for some reason, one of the scenes in the season finale (or second to last episode I don't remember) of three brought me down. It was when Riggs was talking to Saracen and said something along the lines of: "Lets do it one more time seven" or something like that. It made me realize this was the last time they'd play as well as it brought me back to football.

I'm not a big TV fan but that show hooked me from the first episode I ever watched.  There were definitely a few "what the freak are the writers thinking?" moments (the Landry "murder", Lyla goes Christian) but overall it was really, really solid.  One thing that I always laugh about is forgetting Vince the badazz QB was the pants pisser on "The Wire".

The Office is no longer even going for laughs.

Seems like they just want to show how sad the workers at The Office are.

I actually really liked that episode- the dwight hosting, the billboards, and the random Meredith lines were pretty good

Episode 2 added a ton more depth to the story and turned down the campiness. My DVR didn't tape it so I had to buy it from Amazon, it was worth it. Linty, use spoiler tags.

i liked this week's episode.  Anything with Moes is usually pretty good, the Google street view stuff was great, and the Jim/Dwight stuff was fantastic as well.

They are still struggling with Andy as a manager, he's just not cut out to be the star.  Robert California is way tuned down from week 1.  The show still needs Steve Carell.

Anyone watch Midsomer Murders? It's a long-running British show about a homicide detective in rural England. I really like it.

Is anyone else here a fan of the comic that feels the TV adaption is total shiite?  I'm hoping season 2 is better but the first season was turdible.

"American Horror Story" is really crappy.  If not for the hot maid this might have been the turd FX has been waiting to drop.
