![]() That's really all I have to say about that ![]() No, seriously, I'm nowhere near that point yet. Everything about last night's episode was just fucking outstanding to me, no real concerns about Dexter or The Following levels of stupidity creeping in. Perhaps it was just the adrenaline/excitement from seeing the dead body on display this week (avoiding spoilers etc) that carried me through the rest without thinking too hard, b/c hooooooooooooooly shit that was well done.

The Ava storyline is the biggest mis-step justified has made in their entire run I think. The Crowe's as the bad guys for the season isn't really working that well for me either. Still fun to watch, but I definitely feel like this season doesn't quite hold up to the last 3 in a row which were all great. I'm sure they'll knock the final season out of the park still, so its all good.

Agreed, not bad by any means, but few great moments. The resolution of the '21 foot rule' was up to past standards, however the rest of it is simply good, not great. None of the female characters has put in a full shift so far, and Boyd has not been around enough, too. Having the characters run to Limehouse, or even Constable Bob, would thicken the plots for the final episode.

I, for one, can do without another Limehouse visit.
Haven't loved this season either. I like Michael Rappaport, but he just hasn't clicked for me. The drug stuff has been incredibly convoluted, the prison stuff has been lame, the conflict between Art and Raylon never really materialized into anything all that interesting and that mopey kid drives me up the wall. Many great individual moments as always, but the overall story has been kind of blah.

Well Justified seems to be on an odd-season decent/even-season fantastic pattern so hopefully it will go out with a bang.
Probably my least favorite season so far. It just hasn't gone anywhere interesting or worthwhile. |

I thought Dickie Bennett was dead, but there he was last week in jail. Where we left him. Another character I'd like to see make a comeback, but alas, I doubt it.

Just read Graham Yost's AMA on Reddit (http://www.reddit.com/r/television/c...ified_and_you/) - he seemed to indicate we haven't seen the last of many characters (Dickie explicitly)
Characters he says it would strange if we didn't see again: Dickie, Limehouse, Winona, Bob Also hints that Quarles isn't dead. Last edited by Ronnie Dobbs3 : 04-01-2014 at 03:41 PM. |

I would be surprised if Quarles is still alive. Raylan isn't the type to execute a criminal, but I also don't think he or Limehouse were in any hurry to call an ambulance or tourniquet that wound, and Quarles was gushing blood after getting dis"armed". Now if Ice Pick Nix or Jackie Nevada want to re-appear, yes please. |

Business just picked up on Agents of SHIELD. I figured Person X was going to be the "Big Bad" when I looked up their comic background a while ago.

Just finished this week's Justified and it was very good.
Some of the best lines in a while: "This is the worst job ever!" Dewey saying, "When I gave you that, the anus is on you to protect it." That and his gas stealing scene are top notch. Season Finale looks to be solid, too.

Don't forget Raylan telling Dewey that he shouldn't be speaking in the third person. I love Dewey Crowe, I hope he doesn't die along with Daryl next week (surely that's what will happen right?) Any episode that puts Raylan and Boyd in the same room as frequently as this one did is going to be pretty good.

Yup. I'm curious if anyone likes the Ava storyline. I thought she was a pretty solid character the first four seasons, she's dangerously close to "I'll just fastforward when I see her on screen" status now for me. ![]() |

The Ava story line only became relevant with this last episode, IMO. I don't think Boyd has really given up on her, and we will see that in the last episode. Her now being desperate adds to the pressure.
I, too, love Dewey Crowe. And I like the idea of him and Dickie B getting together in jail.

Veep-
I'd give the premiere a solid A and I can't wait for this season to continue. I'm assuming that there will be some sort of bad deal made to incorporate the Jo-Nad into the VP camp. I could watch a 4 minute reel of Jonah insults that didn't make TV...someone needs to do this. JLD is freaking great. Silicon Valley- Very promising A-/B+ type start. Mike Judge has a great track record and I really like the cast a lot. Looking forward i'd say it's way more likely to be an A quality type show. So much material to satarize. |

Loved the Veep premiere. Also, the Shameless finale was a great end to their best season yet.

Fargo starts tonight on FX.
Orphan Black starts Saturday night. My TV schedule is becoming a bit tight now: Mondays: Clear Tuesday: Shield + Fargo Wednesday: Americans Thursday: Clear Friday: Hannibal Saturday: Orphan Black Sunday: Game of Thrones, Veep and Silicon Valley. The only show I watch live is GoT. The rest are DVR'd and watched in the morning before work. Throw in the NHL playoffs and, like Prince Humperdink before his wedding, I'm swamped.

Just wrapped up Shameless season four, marathon style. I agree, best season yet which is saying a lot. Also, just catching up on Hannibal. What an amazing show if you can suspend reality a bit (Dexter style) about the sheer volume of crazy murders/serial killers. The actor playing Hannibal does such a great job...chilling stuff. |

So I watched the first episode of True Detective tonight. Creepy. And Matthew McI'mNotGoingToTryToSpellIt looks ill. I realize he lost the weight to film Dallas Buyer's Club but man does he look awful. I'm not sure on the show FOR ME. It might be too much.
From the talk here, sounds like Silicon Valley will be more my speed. ![]() /tk

From reading the interview Mike Schur did with Sepinwall (http://www.hitfix.com/whats-alan-wat...season-finale), it seems like they sort of treated this like it was, with the added bonus of giving the show some new life for the likely last season. Seems like they knew that they were out of quality material in the current point in time. I guess that's what happens when you spend five and a half years never knowing if you'll get a chance to come back with more in the fall. Last edited by Logan : 04-25-2014 at 07:24 AM. |

I forgot to tape it, but last night's CSI was supposedly a backdoor pilot for a new show.

The guy who plays Peter Gregory died in December. I'd assume the show was finished filming by then. Last edited by stevew : 05-03-2014 at 03:23 AM. |

I'm hoping Will Graham is up to shenanigans. That "slice the ginger" line was great.
Good to see Mason Verger, even if it's a bit early to introduce him. |

This character is the main villain of Hannibal the movie and those pigs factor in prominently. I doubt they'll reveal the top secret plan with Frankie but I'm assuming Graham has either begged her to dissapear for safety or has locked her away. I think Graham figures the only way to get Letter is to 100% make him believe they are on the same level. |

Sadly, it was one of those shows were I saw it a couple of times and liked it but knew it would get the axe so I didn't make it a part of regular viewing
