Get in line.

Spoiler

You can have her brother.

Anywho...now that Veras is basically on the run with Tyrien I am curious as to how they are going to bring him back in the fold. The show does a great job of managing multiple storylines, so that is not a worry, but I liked Tyrien in King's Landing. Another great thing this show does is pretty much show the good and bad in every character. Jamie is a hero now after being a shit for the first couple seasons. Cersei even has some redeeming qualities. Littlefinger is a cocksucker, but you have to respect his ingenuity. Also, I really hope The Hound is not dead...he is my favorite character.

At first, I thought you accidentally left a comma out of the first sentence...then I realized what you were insinuating.

I think I'm most excited to see is Arya. She's already got a little bit of basass quality to her and her training will just escalate that. I am getting tired of Daenyrus. Get on with it already.

Minor book spoiler about Tyrion and King's Landing. Skip it if you haven't read Dance with Dragons or don't want to know.

Spoiler

Tyrion is gone from King's Landing a long time in the books. As of the last one he is nowhere near Westeros. The show might not end up following the books exactly, but considering Martin said the main reason he had to delay the last book for a couple of years was to figure out how to get Tyrion where he ends up in the time frame he wanted him to end up there I am betting it is a pretty big plot point.

Also, Tyrion calls himself YOLO in exhile. (actually Yollo, but close enought to make me laugh)

It may be blasphemy, but I am beginning to think Better Call Saul is as good as Breaking Bad.

I havent watched the last one yet but I cant believe this to be true. I think its good but I just dont get the same feeling (as in wanting to watch it right away) as Breaking Bad did.

Yeah.... let's not get ahead of ourselves. It's good, but BB is in consideration for GOAT status.

All I am saying is that each episode is damn satisfying just like BB.

Been binge watching the first season of Man Seeking Woman. It's not bad.

I know I am late to it, but House of Cards is fun to watch...Spacey kills every scene.

 

[Kbrown]

Finished Hannibal season 2 on Prime. I feel like I have said this before, but I can't think of a more consistently dark show. Most shows that feature gruesome murders have some nerdy assistants cracking jokes to lighten the mood. One of the FBI forensic assistants on Hannibal

Spoiler

gets vivisected and put on display in giant glass slides.

It would be really hard to binge watch if it weren't also so brilliantly-written.

 

[boozeman]

I can't wait for the next season of Hannibal.

It is a beautifully made and acted show.

I really enjoyed it, but missed a few shows and kind of gave up on it. I will get back to it eventually. I am back with The Following now. Not impressed with the season 3 opener, but I have invested too much time into it to give up now.

Gonna have to watch this show. Is it only on Netflix?

Yeah, it was a bit slow. I'm hoping they are gearing up for a good season. So far it's been incredible.

The cult thing last year kind of sucked IMO...once they got away from there it picked up.

Yes.

I have to admit, I only watched the first four episodes or so. Not that it was bad, but it just didn't grab me. Will have to give it a second shot.

I mean, it is not like it sucked, like The Wire.

Yean, the season premiere was weak.

Spoiler

The twin thing just doesn't do it for me. But I bet they bring Carroll back into it soon. I can't imagine a season just chasing around the twin.

I was going to mention that...the twins do not have enough charisma to be the main bad guy. They made a mistake killing off Emma too...she was a bad ass.

 

[Deuce]

House of Lies and House of Cards are the only two shows where the main character can talk to the audience and it still works. Usually those scenes piss me off but both are just so well done.

As for Emma, she's on this season of House of Lies covered in tattoos and lip rings. Still hot.
