foreverendeared: Game Of Thrones

foreverendeared 06.27.11	Read the books first before you watch the show. It's well worth your time.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	show is so gooood, best first season for a show in some time
AggravatedYeti 06.27.11	Peter Dinklage for the fucking win.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	pretty much
Acanthus 06.27.11	Show's awesome, almost have all of them downloaded. Season was too short, might have to read the books now :/
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	HBO can do no wrong.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	Yeah, I highly recommend reading the books.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	My friend said the books are pretty much perfect, so I probably should
Inveigh 06.27.11	didn't HBO have that show with Steve Buscemi playing a gangster or something? I only got Showtime... but Borgias was pretty cool
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Yea, Boardwalk Empire, which I haven't watched but I heard is good
foreverendeared 06.27.11	Boardwalk Empire. I liked that show.
wyankeif1337 06.27.11	i saw the commercials and it looked good. do you know if it's on demand?
foreverendeared 06.27.11	I have no idea, man.
Acanthus 06.27.11	Hmm I know its on HBO Go but not sure about Demand
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Showtime's alright. I mean Dexter is cool and all I guess
foreverendeared 06.27.11	Dexter is awesome. It just happens that the last season sucked hard.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	I really only liked the first season of Dexter.
Blindsided 06.27.11	Show takes the cake for best of 2011.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	Season 4 is like my favorite season of any show ever.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Really? Why's that?
Inveigh 06.27.11	yeah Dexter season 5 was really really bad by that show's standards, Californication was kind of weak too in fact, I'm not even 100% sure why I have Showtime anymore outside of Dexter and now Borgias. Nurse Jackie's pretty ok I guess...
Blindsided 06.27.11	I agree with Blake, I've also heard that either this season or the next will be the last for our favorite serial killer. Nurse Jackie is so-so, Californication can get monotonous, but the women are so hot. What's this Borgias?
acorncheese 06.27.11	bearsman is back
foreverendeared 06.27.11	"Really? Why's that?" Just everything about that season was awesome. John Lithgow was phenomenal as the antagonist and the season finale was just banana nuts.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	I've never watched Californication or Borgias or Nurse Jackie. Should I?
PayneTiger777 06.27.11	Season 1 and season 4 of Dexter were amazing. John Lithgow was the best villain on any tv series ever. Dexter season 5 was bad because Julia Stiles can't act for shit. She's not even attractive. As for Game of Thrones, I really enjoyed it even though I haven't read the books yet. Tyrion, Sir Jerro, and the dance instructor (can't remember his name) are my favorite characters.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Nurse Jackie pretty damn meh. Never watched Californication. @forever I guess I'm a bit biased towards Dexter because Michael C. Hall is known mostly to people as Dexter Morgan, when his role as David Fisher is far far superior. It's still a good show though regardless.
Kiran 06.27.11	yeah season 4 of dexter was incredible television but season 5 was an absolute shitshow. hoping season 6 trims the fat on the bad subplots and supporting characters. nice to see some love for six feet under btw, fsharp. game of thrones has been awesome though. haven't read the books but really really looking forward to season 2.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	"and the dance instructor (can't remember his name)" Syrio Furrel (sp?) He had that super awesome scene where he takes out like 6 knights with a wooden sword. Badass. Interesting selection of favorite characters, I must say. if you read the books I have a feeling you'll change that up "when his role as David Fisher is far far superior." Oh yeah there's no doubt his acting in that show is amazing.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Yea, but it's really the way that he develops that character that is incredible. Some of the best character development ever
foreverendeared 06.27.11	I mean, that's in the writing.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Yea, but still, its not easy to act as a morbid closeted gay man and than slowly develop into a fun, loving one
PayneTiger777 06.27.11	I meant Ser Jorah earlier, not Sir Jerro, lol. My brother is actually going to head down to New York City when the next book is released so he can get George R.R. Martin's autograph. Bah, I'm mad that the next season isn't until Spring 2012.
acorncheese 06.27.11	six feet under FTW
Inveigh 06.27.11	Nurse Jackie's cool, just because she's an insane drug addict. Californication's first 4 seasons or so were just awesome, this last one started to play out the same old stuff though. I actually kind of dug US of Tara too, but it's gone now. Borgias is about the first Spanish-born Pope and his family -- "the original crime family" as the tagline goes. They were the real-life inspiration for the Corleone's in The Godfather. Very cool show, probably the best thing Showtime has going right now unless Dexter has a remarkable return to form this year. Weeds comes back tonight, though I'm not getting my hopes up. That show just went off the deep end the last season plus.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	"I meant Ser Jorah earlier, not Sir Jerro, lol." I knew who you meant lol. He's probably the one character that's actually better on the show than in the book. "Bah, I'm mad that the next season isn't until Spring 2012." That's why you should get the books to tide you over :]
WatchItExplode 06.27.11	Also popping in to say that Six Feet Under rules. Perhaps my favorite drama series of all time.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	I'm gonna have to download Californication, and Borgias sounds pretty awesome.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Six Feet Under's finale is by far my favorite ending to anything, and also one of my favorite shows. Everyone should tune in for the new season of Breaking Bad on July 17th. Now thats a fucking show
Inveigh 06.27.11	I'm pretty pissed Mad Men decided to take a year and a half off between seasons and yeah Borgias and Californication are probably the best non-Dexter shows on Showtime. also, acorncheese, bearsman never left, yo!
kris. 06.27.11	game of thrones rules so hard just started the second book
foreverendeared 06.27.11	I've never understood the hype with Mad Men. I've seen every episode so far, but nothing really happens. It's just dull. And yeah, can't wait for more Breaking Bad.
Kiran 06.27.11	"I'm pretty pissed Mad Men decided to take a year and a half off between seasons" yeah this is killing me jon hamm just signed on for 3 more seasons though so at least 3 more seasons of mad men!
Kiran 06.27.11	and the big delay was the show creator holding off for a better contract/more creative control i think... ...if you weren't already aware
AggravatedYeti 06.27.11	Jorah Mormont, Drogo, The Hound, GM Mormont, Allistair Thorne, The Big John, Aemon Targaryen and Osha are all excellently casted secondary characters. Even the little kid they got to play Rickon is perfect.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Mad Men is good, but yeah overrated definitely
Voivod 06.27.11	Have heard a lot of good things about this TV series worldwide...
Snowball 06.27.11	was a great series but i couldn't help but feel the finale was a bit anti-climactic. the second series looks like it's gonna be sweet though, shame we've got to wait however many months before it starts up again
Inveigh 06.27.11	I did not know that Kirgasm, I was wondering what the hold up was. Mad Men is just great storytelling and acting -- although it helps if you're into the whole late 50s/early 60s motif and advertising agency thing. Don Draper is just a fascinating character.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Anybody watch The Killing? Did not like what I saw at all
foreverendeared 06.27.11	The climax was in episode 9 when you know who got beheaded. The last episode was more resolution.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Yea, they kind of took a Wire like approach with that
foreverendeared 06.27.11	"Mad Men is just great storytelling and acting" Acting, yes, but storytelling? I have to disagree with you there.
Inveigh 06.27.11	The Killing was pretty cool until the season finale when they just fucked over everyone who'd been watching the show by revealing who the killer was then pulling a "just kidding that's not who it is!" moment right before the season ended
Pyosisified 06.27.11	a friend of mine is nuts about this series idk it prob sucks
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	The ad I saw for it before it aired reminded me too much of Twin Peaks, which was dismissing
foreverendeared 06.27.11	For those that have read the books AND watched the series, did you find the whole affair with Loras and Renly kind of... weird? I mean the book didn't say the were fucking, but it also kind of hinted at it.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	Yeah the Killing looks exactly like the plot of Twin Peaks.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	"a friend of mine is nuts about this series idk it prob sucks" nope
kris. 06.27.11	"did you find the whole affair with Loras and Renly kind of... weird?" kinda but only from actually seeing it on screen which is really awkward
Blindsided 06.27.11	six feet under FTW [2] As many said, Michael C. Hall's acting is far superior in this series than in Dexter imo. I'll probably get raped for saying this but I really like the Hawaii 5-0 reboot.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	Haven't seen it. Never was a fan of the original
Inveigh 06.27.11	bend over
Blindsided 06.27.11	Oh go watch The Big C already.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	Someone's about to get ass blasted.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	Or should I say, blindsided by the cock.
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	It's about to be Oz all over again up in here
Blindsided 06.27.11	Baaa dum cheeeee.
Inveigh 06.27.11	oh yeah The Big C is on tonight too, which I'll end up watching because my old lady likes it
Blindsided 06.27.11	I wish I could afford all those premium channels like this big shot here.
Inveigh 06.27.11	I can only afford one. barely.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	I just download them illegally.
Blindsided 06.27.11	^Yep that's the only way to go. Really though it's like $15 a piece for HBO and Sho, and that's in-fucking-sane.
foreverendeared 06.27.11	yeah that is ridiculous
fsharptrit0ne 06.27.11	I illegally download too, but I buy shows I really like just to have
ComfortablyDumb 06.28.11	I have just under 200 pages left in the first book. Can't wait to start watching the series when I finish
foreverendeared 06.28.11	I think you'll enjoy it.
foreverendeared 06.28.11	The only problem is budget issues. Like some scenes they just aren't going to be able to replicate because of how much it'd cost. They also have a budget problem with extras. Like when they had the tournament at King's Landing in celebration of Ned being Hand, the tourney was supposed to have like thousands upon thousands of people there, but they were only ably to show like maybe a hundred people in the stands. It was kind of weird.
foreverendeared 06.28.11	Detriment, that's Frog and Toad man! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frog_and_Toad
foreverendeared 06.28.11	That's cause they're the shit.
