Claire Danes is weird looking. Her torso is too long for her head or something..

Does anyone like Parenthood? I've caught seasons 1 and 2 on Netflix instant---great music, too..

unless you're a lesbo, you have no idea what you're talking about.  she was hot in romeo and juliet.  I'd pork her in a second for sure.

Big fan of Parenthood, definitely my favorite network TV show. I was pimping it a lot during season 1 here and no one seemed interested. Very good ensemble cast and theyve still kept it interesting for 3+ seasons without doing anything crazy. Music is very good. I probably write down lyrics and try to find out who/what song it was at least every 3 episodes or so

Yeah, I'll take a long torso and the legs of Peter Dinklage over a reasonable head size/torso ratio if it's Clair Danes....wait what?  She was oddly attractive in My So Called Life when whe was like 15 years old...wait what?!  It's cool because I was 16 when I thought she was oddly attractive when she was 15.

it's either a long torso or a long neck...

yeah it's so good?? I hadn't heard much about it..i've heard Iron & Wine among others...the chracter Crosby held a record release party by the Henry Clay People (Who I think I've seen open for Drive-by Truckers) in the last ep I watched..

Shazam, yo!

I know I liked it at first but quit watching for some reason.  I tried to watch it a few weeks ago and couldn't get into it.  I think I'm about to pick back up at the beginning.  It's streaming on Netflix and I'm about to cancel their dvd service (like the rest of the U.S., apparently).

I think Im a couple episodes behind on the new season, still liking it although Im pissed Wallace from The Wire broke up with Haddie. He was a good character.

If anyone else is behind/didnt start watching season 3, its on Hulu for free, although they only have the last 5 episodes so I think the 1st episode this season isnt on there anymore.

Normally wouldn't watch this show but there is a dude from my hometown making a run on X Factor.  His name is Josh Krajcik and I remember going to see this dude at a couple of local bars several years ago playing with an acoustic guitar on open mic nights and such.  And he was slinging burritos at our local Chipotle before he went out to Chicago to audition for the show. 

I DVR'd last night's show and I'm thanking god I did as Josh is pretty much the ONLY one on the show I find I can stand so I was able to just fast forward through the rest of the riff raff of that show.

Penny, the dude went to Triway.  Thought you might appreciate that connection as well! 

Also, I'm a Parenthood fan as well!

Don't forget, Beavis & Butthead return tonight.

[wolof7]

I thought that the 'Jersey Shore' episode was genius as was the first episode. Franks Little Beauties' was disturbing but funny.

S.O.A has been enjoyable this season thus far....Can't wait for Justified Season 3, best show on tv imho, season 2 was a scorcher!!!

Beauty pageants for kids is disturbing, and that was their way of criticizing it in their own warped way. I can imagine that episode could potentially offend many people, and they'd be completely missing the point. The characters might be dumb but it's a smart show.  They took a touchy subject and still made it funny.

Ha I was in no way offended it was just a hard watch....that yankee doodle techno song was creepy....and it was hard to look at Danny Devito with the pedophile makeup on but it was a solid episode

walking dead is suppose to be off the chain tonight.  so pumped.

Good to know.  I'm still recovering from last week's Boardwalk Empire, one of the most violent hours of TV I've ever seen.

It was pretty violent, but interesting. The most violent one-off TV episode I've ever seen is, and I'm not kidding in the least, the series finale of Xena. Right up there is the Rome episode where Vorenus bails out Pullo while battling around a hundred warriors in the gladiator ring. Band of Brothers is the most violent series ever.

American Horror Story is a bit creepy.  Not sure how they're going to keep this going but have enjoyed it so far.  I also can't get enough of this kind of stuff during this time of year.  Love Halloween!  Also can't wait for the new season of The Walking Dead!

Im pretty sure its just going to be a one season miniseries type show. Maybe if it gets really good ratings theyll bring it back for another season, but with a new family and maybe even totally new story/house.

I thought the 2nd episode was even better. I hope they continue developing the characters already introduced (neighbors, maid, burn victim, psych patient) instead of introducing more. I like how theyre blurring the line with the neighbors making you not sure if theyre alive or ghosts (psych patient and the maid are pretty clearly ghosts I think). I have a feeling they will continue to make them appear alive but late in the season reveal theyre actually dead.

I am loving this show. I watch it on Wednesdays, then I watch it later On Demand to catch the subtleties I missed. Jessica Lange's Constance is my favorite character thusfar. Bitch is fierce!

This show is so great. I have no fucking clue what is going on though. I'm so confused. I'm beginning to think everyone is dead.

what do you think of this theory:  there is some curse on the house or some shit that traps all the ghosts there.  the current family has to solve the mystery of the house in order to release the ghosts!  I think they're for sure alive because the dude killed that one mistress bitch and built the gazebo right?  the kid is always cutting herself so she's alive.  and the wife is prego so she's probably alive.  plus that kid goes to school and shit.

[Sticky Icky Green Stuff]

by the way, does anybody else think it's hilarious that one ghost kid's name is "Taint". haha.  wtf?
