I'm surprised it took this long. I've loved Jon Lajoie for ages.

EDIT: SPOILERS! (kinda)

Just watched the final episode of Breaking Bad after starting season 1 about a week ago! My god, what a depressing ending. It had me sobbing just thinking about how Walt fucked everything up for everyone, all for nothing.

Phew, if I'd read that before I saw the ending I would've been sooo mad.

If you wanna discuss it you could bump the old BrBa thread if it's still around.

That comment can be read very diffferently than what was meant. :lol:

First two episodes of Hannibal have been brilliant.

2nd episode of The Americans was a bit crap tbh. Hope it was just a minor hiccup.

After being disappointed with the first one I saw, I watched two more episodes of Brookyn Nine Nine. One of them was brilliant but the other one was so crap I turned it off before the end. I'll give it one more go but if the next one's crap too then that's it for me.

The Walking Dead has lots of walking and lots of dead. Unfortunately, it's meandering to a conclusion rather than drawing you into it. It also seems to have completely forgotten that Rick is the central character.

Part 1 of Top Gear's Burma Special was brilliant. Miles funnier than any recent sitcoms the Beeb have written recently.

The Following continues to be completely ridiculous yet addictive as fuck at the same time. It took all my effort not to burst out laughing (as well as strapping on the goat leggings) during the latest episode but I know I'll be watching it again this week.

Rick hasn't really been the central character for a long while. I think the main flaw with the show (and it has been a flaw since the start) is that the main story arc is generally so, so slow. The seasons could be significantly shorter and the story would probably be a lot more gripping.

Can't believe next season is the last one.
