This week's Vikings was badass. Nice dark episode.

Was not satisfied with the ending Of King of the Nerds. But Jack miscalculated.

And yeah, Vikings is going in directions I did not expect. After the first season(where they really weren't expecting a second), they seriously seem to be making up for lost time by laying LOTS of long term storyline groundwork. Really love this show.
 
Vikings is kind of becoming a "poor man's" GoT without the heavy dialogue and cgi.

I really like how the story is branching also. Bjorn is going to be a Badass. I'm curious how Ragnar and Eckbert's relationship will work.

One thing for sure...King Horik has to go. Yeah, his son got killed, but hacking down Eckbert's kid ain't gonna improve relations. And he already soured things and caused Earl Handlebar 'stache to kill most of Ragnar's clan. Like Rollo's chance at redemption.
 
Black Sails season finale discussion, anyone?


***SPOILERS AHEAD***



I really ****ing love this show. Just watched it and that last scene was glorious. I'm so beyond pissed about Gates though. Thanks for killing off my favorite character, guys! And did anyone else think Dufresne was actually Billy Bones when Flint woke up on the island after the battle? I totally thought it was him and I was so excited. What a fantastic finale.

I had that thought for a second, but it went away quickly.

They did a pretty good job of basically making every character some kind of "bad guy"
 
Anyone watching Resurrection on ABC? After two episodes I think it's pretty interesting, though it tends to be on the slow side as far as story telling goes.

I watched about half the first episode Saturday before the game, then finished it after the game. I was so mad it was hard to get back into the show; I wanted to punch all the characters in the face. However, I liked the show after all, so in the light of all that, I'll give it a chance.

Yeah. As much as I enjoy this show, they seem to be in the habit of killing off all the likable characters.

Hell of a cliffhanger ending. How long do we have to wait for the next season?

I tried watching the premiere of Believe last night. It's very heroes-lite (and I liked Heroes). Premise is interesting, but storyline development looks to be a problem.

Can't decide if I like the casting. The guy looks way too much like the lead singer of nickelback and that kept poking me. But the girl is cute, and could be fine if done intelligently.

It was one and done for me. That death row prison escape was easier than going to the DMV. And they don't use weapons, even though people are willing to kill anyone to get to the girl? No thanks.

Ya watched the second episode last night and already have pretty much lost interest
 
****!!!!!! Just finished Black Sails. ****. **** **** ****. I LOVE Flint. BUT HE NEEDS TO DIE!!!!! Why?????? Not Gates! Damn it. Still...I love this show. And there are still MANY characters to love. And Billy ain't dead. After all that...Gates was gonna slip him and the woman away, but he killed him. And that I cannot forgive. Silver is growing on me, and the thought of how he becomes the TI Silver could be cool...but not yet. Flint needs to stay a little longer. Glad to see folks responding, and since the second season was greenlit before the first aired I would imagine that they are already in pre-production. I would expect a big showing at SDCC(and their panel has now become a must attend for me), so there should be news coming soon. Since I am uberfan of this you know I will key in and bring any snippets of news I hear...

Still...

Gates...


WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?????????

Oh, and of course Dufresne got promoted due to tearing a man's throat out with his teeth. Helllllloooooooooooo PIRATE!!!!!

As ridiculous as The Blacklist gets, and I am deeply impressed with how the great acting and stellar production values completely overpower that, mad props for that last shot in the shower, with the blood on his hands as he holds them to her back and she has no idea.

I caught a few minutes of an episode last night about the slums in brazil and dropping murder rates being replaced by skyrocketing missing person rates. Scary s***!

Flint is one of those guys that's just going to continually demonstrate how his f'd up life, even sometimes with good intentions, pretty much f's up everyone else's life too while he survives. But I don't think he survives another season.

At some point there has to be some kind of epic showdown between him and Vane though, right?

Silver is growing on me a lot. But he still seems too "boy-ish" too me for lack of a better word. He needs just a liiitle bit of killing someone by eating their neck or some kind of fighting experience to go along with his intellect.
