What’s on TV?

With Nip/Tuck done, the show is officially out of my rotation. Now it’s Parks and Recreation, 30 Rock, The Office, Archer (which just finished it’s first season, great adult cartoon). I’m still digging Americas Best Dance Crew, this season has had a very good mix of dance styles feels like a better season than last. ABDC has 3 or 4 episodes left now. FX has started their new show, Justified and I think I’m a fan. U.S Marshall played by Timothy Olyphant gets moved back to his home town to lay down the law. In typical FX fashion it has fantastic actors, writing and production values.

The Ricky Gervaise Show on HBO is a hoot, it’s his podcast animated. HBO also started airing The Pacific which is a war mini-series much like Band of Brothers. This time it’s about the time(s) just after the Pearl Harbor attacks. Don’t get a good feeling for any of the characters yet, seems to be a slower build.

I’m still with Lost, it’s not as gung-ho as everyone expected and wanted but I think it’s still enjoyable. I’ve stuck with it so long, I gotta see how they end it. The next episode is about Richard who at this point is the most mysterious character, we know next to nothing about him. Should be a lot of reveals. Spartacus on Starz is far and away my favorite show on TV right now. It’s basically 300 on TV and it has it all. Action, mystery, violence, nudity, cursing, gore. Everything I love pretty much. The acting is so good, and the writing is just out of this world. I can never guess what’s going to happen. The political backstabbing is off the charts. Liars and thieves constantly making moves to one up each other and the shit storm just keeps getting bigger and bigger. The 9th episode aired on Friday and was titled “Whore”. Never has there been a more appropriate title. I haven’t been knocked retarded from the end of a show since the first 2 seasons of Nip/Tuck! A second season has already been given the greenlight so that is awesome news. I’m constantly amazed at the momemetum that Spartacus has been able to maintain. The worst episode was the first one, they’ve been crafting this masterpiece of a story ever since without missing a beat. But the old champion enters the ring tonight!

Breaking Bad starts Season 3 tonight on AMC! So excited, it’s been a long break after last seasons stunner of a finale. So much to watch it’s crazy. Fringe starts back up in April too which also starts the months of awesome movies coming out and May is packed with AAA video games. Some crazy entertainment coming up in the next few months. This summer should be fantastic.
