The summer television season is coming to a close and it’s been a good one. First and foremost is Breaking Bad which continues to be the best television show airing right now. I could blabber on but anything more is really reedundant, the quality and intensity of this show has never dipped or faultered, Last weeks episode sent shockwaves through the entire fanbase for being so incredible. We get to see the aftermath tonight. There’s only 3 more shows until the break into next year!
Falling Skies is my sci-fi show which ends tonight. Better than last season for sure. We are show a lot more, some interesting developments and the posibility of an alien rebellion opens things up. The promos for the season finale look promising.
Franklin and Bash continued to fun as well. It just struck me that it’s the only lawyer show I watch. Even though the season is very short by network television standards, it always seems to fly by. Looking forward to season 3 next year.
Face Off comes back this week! I love this make up compitition show, I can’t believe no one thought of doing it sooner. Can’t wait to see the talent they’ve found this year.
Louie continues to be the most anti typical comedy out there. He’s in a different head space than anyone else.
Futurama has been on a roll! After the mediocre movie pieces that stretched for a few years, finding a normal season pace on Comedy Central has put the show right back in the sweet spot. These recent episode continue the quality from last season with great character specific episodes that build on why the show is so popular (the nerd jokes are great too). The animation is fantastic too.
Season 2 of Wilfred continues to be one of my favorite new shows. It walks the sick and twisted line with a certain amount of honesty and love that I really like. The chemistry between Jason and Elijah is what really makes Wilfred work.
Children’s Hospital just came back on those maniacs keep crushing it. I was a little late to the party, starting with season 3 but quickly watched the first two seasons. So funny, it scratches that same itch that Always Sunny in Philly does. I’m going to go on record and say that Ken Marino is a comedic genius. He’s been in the game for a long time now, but not enough people know about him. I hope he really hits it big in the future.
Weeds is on it’s last season! Good! Seriously. It’s time to bring this show in for a landing. It’s not the worst show, but it certainly isn’t the best. I still feel invested in the characters and really just watch to see how it ends.
Episodes is a show that I’m not sure why I watch. I’m not sure I can explain why. I guess because it’s kind of behind the scenes of a (fake) TV show that I like to watch it? I think it’s just grown on me like a fungus. I’m not a Matt LeBlanc fan, but I like that he’s playing up himself on the show.
True Blood remains on the top of the heap for the best bad show on TV. It’s a guilty pleasure, what can I say. Interesting season and I’m really impressed with the FX for the smoke monster that’s been chasing Andy, it looks amazing.
I can’t remember if I wrote about Korra since it ended, so I’ll just throw that here anyway. The finale was kinda weird due to it really wrapping things up, but I can’t really complain about such a good show. Best animation on TV by miles, it’s a joy to see in HD. Great VO and the soundtrack is spectacular. Truly unique action scenes and the continuation of one of my favorite universes makes this show one of my favorites. It’s going for a full 4 seasons so there is a lot to look forward to.
