Just about everything is back, let’s take a look:
Justified- quality on par with previous seasons. The new hook for the season is well underway and the pieces are moving into place.

Shameless- I’m a little worried about Steve’s plotline getting a bit out there and goofy, but so far no worries. Great work the budding power struggle between Lip and Fiona. Kev: a secret from his passed just showed up. Taken from the UK show, but looks like it’s going to be much different.

House of Lies- I like it, no complaints so far.

Californication- a sober Hank but for how long? This show feels like it’s on a treadmill that should have worn out long ago, but I’m still compelled to watch.

Face Off- At the start, the contestants all looked super solid. The worst of the bunch easily and quickly got culled. The second episode was a disaster, half of the cast made a terrible final product. It now looks like there are 3 guys head and shoulders above the rest in terms of ability, but previews show there is some crazy work coming. It’s either from these 3 guys or some others really step up to the plate.

Archer- love it. The season starts with Bob’s Burgers!

The Americans- TBA

The Following- You can see Kevin horror movie Williams technique all over the pilot. Aside from some super goofy tropes that led to stupid lines/acting, it’s a cool idea. Hope it runs well.

Legit- I like Jim Jeffries, so I know what to expect and got it. Good fit for FX, should be a good season. I hope the story lines pull more from new ideas than his stand up stuff.

Spartacus: War of the Damned- Awesome start! Took a bit for me to get back into the groove (a lot of new names to learn) but I love where they are going. Marcus Crassus is the new lead villain for Rome this season. I was iffy on him at the start but by the end of the show I’m convinced. Great actor, this last season could really be fantastic.

ALSO: Top Gear UK is back tonight! It’s been a year but we can all rejoice that the boys are back!
