Been going through The West Wing the last month or so. Up to Season 3. Fantastic stuff.

Oh, it's up? And it's honestly bad... or are you just trying to get us to watch it because of how awesome it is?

They appear to have based one of the characters on GameHED.

Finally caught up on the show and I must say I loved it! I can relate to Jim's sense of humour quite a lot it's a bit scary actually :lol: hope FX renew it as it's good to see Wilfred and this having Aussies as their main drawcards on their respective shows.

Another show I have caught up with is Strike back, watched the 2nd season loved it so much bought the 1st/2nd season blu ray combo recently I still need to watch the 1st series. Watching the 3rd series at the moment, action centric 80's style action series with all the violence/old school no cg crap and sex that you need :up: Turning out to be one of my all time favs at the min just due to the kick arse-ish ness of it well worth watching (And one of the main dudes is Aussie as well from season 2 onwards)

Banshee is another show on the same network that has promise...the premise is absolutely ridiculous of the show but it works (for the time being) Has been renewed for another season already so will be interesting to see where it goes from here

Awesome series. I felt the first two seasons were the best but as a whole David Simon went beyond Homicide by a mile. Smashed out the series in one hit a few years back, felt like a visual book.

I can't work out whether I loved or hated this week's episode.

I pretty much always come away from every episode knowing I completely missed the artistic intent and many the highbrow would be chortling at things I didn't even see. I seriously think it's written for smarter people than me but I'm still entertained. It's like an X rated bizarro world version of Seinfeld. The complete opposite.

To be fair the 3rd season sucked pretty hard too, and was just being dragged along by the goodwill of seasons 1 & 2.

Yep. I'm actually embarrassed watching it a lot of the time. And I go out of my way to watch shit.

I saw half of the last episode so I'm pretty much up to speed. And I didn't have to sit through the other 12 odd hours to get there. Awesome season. Will watch the next season final also.
