<p>If that's what you think of as real you really do need to start posting pics of your missus. ;)</p> -
<p>hhmm, this aint going well...I mean that the fact we know she's a he, and her rack looks, well, like a real (enhanced) rack... :hang1:</p>

<p>Season 1 of "Low Winter Sun" finished up last night. I really enjoyed the show. But it did seem they left things ready for a 2nd season, and given the story, i wonder how they are going to generate it?</p>
-
<p>Finally Homeland kicked into gear with the last ep. Obviously the writers had a plan to take us to the point they did but fark it was tedious getting there.</p>
<p>I have read that the ratings were really dropping until this last episode which jumped back up again, given that TV3 hasn't even started showing it yet they must have been holding back as well.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]All that boring crap with the moody daughter looks like it may be heading somewhere as well. Big hints being dropped that she may be the one person Brody tries to connect with and that she may be quite interested in converting to Islam.<br><br>
Now the main players have been positioned the story may have somewhere to go.[/spoiler]</p> -
<p>Yeah is odd TV3 havent screened it like they did last year, I guess the ratings werent good enough to warrant the cost for them to D/L it from the US Network so quickly?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I havent started with Homeland or Person of Interest yet, 2 more eps of Dexter to go and also been watching Walking Dead and Under the Dome on normal TV...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I see Arrow re-started, anyone watching? It got a bit tiresome midway through last year, so they will need to step it up to keep a decent fanbase.</p> -
<p>Agents of SHIELD needs a quick uplift in ideas or it will die. It has failed to come up with any interesting storyline and has become (as I read in one review) "Scooby Doo".</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cardboard cutout characters and formulaic stories.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Will be interesting to see the appetite of the producers to either change up or be canned as the premise was good.</p> -

<p>Been keeping up with Arrow. It looks like the producers took a step back during the break and have rejigged a few aspects. It looks improved now we have got over Oliver's "finding himself". More DC characters coming in now too.</p>

<p>Arrow has a Maori from HB in its main cast - it has to be good ;).</p>

<p>I quite like the show TBF, I assume that the mysterious new girl is a DC character (is she from Liam Neeson group in Batman?), I'm not up on my DC superheroes, I was a GI Joe/The Nam/Battle Action Force comic reader as a boy. </p> -

<p>In the comics, the Black Canary is the alter ego of Dinah Laurel Lance. The have decided to take a different tack in the show. The Black Canary has been revealed as : [spoiler]Sara Lance, Laurel's sister who was thought to have died while banging Oliver on the Queen's Gambit when it was sunk[/spoiler]</p> -
<p>Seeing as all the new shows are shit, I have been catching up on some stuff I had saved. Have been watching season one of Defiance. Yeah, it is not that great. But I am still watching. Mostly just to see what happens with the sheriff's adopted Irathian daughter. But most of the writing is so predictable. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Homeland is somewhat crap so far (enough teen angst, please). Boardwalk is still kicking ass.</p> -
<p>I see IMDB is showing a 2nd series for Defiance, but without a start date...</p>

<p>[spoiler] glad that BS case against Nero has finally been sorted, it was p!ssing me off! Hope thats the last we see of that DA, she is just annoying, as is Wendy, not sure what the deal with her character is, but seems a waste of space?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Taraâ€
s little plan is all falling apart now, she let too many become involved and know what her ultimate plan was so they were able to work it all out, and surely it wont be long before Jax finds out as well, or will he just be blind/ignorant to it?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Must be first ep in a long time Clay didnt appear?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Kinda wonderign what direction things are gonna go from here, there is so much drama and death going on at the moment, seems the more Jax tries to move the Sons away from the illegal sh!t more people die...[/spoiler]</p>

<p>Something that Sutter does a lot is start up a story arc run it for a bit, then cut it off sharply if he gets bored with it or gets another idea. He plays around with the peripherals to the main story alot.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]I do feel that he is trying to line stuff up for the endgame and last season though.<br><br>
Surely the end needs to involve Jax, Tara, Clay, Gemma and the existence of the club.<br><br>
Main remaining piece to get sorted is the Irish/ Guns and whether things get to a position where Jax either decides between family and club or creates a solution.<br><br>
Nero is such a good character he will be around to near the end I think.<br><br>
My guess. Jax manages to orchestrate the destruction of the gun running to appease his conscience, at the same time removing the Irish, Clay and the black gang that wants Tig while giving the DA a fall guy to get the govt off the club's back . [/spoiler]</p> -
<p>Watched the finale of Dexter, and thought the finale was a bit weak.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]I always thought they had the perfect opportunity last season to finish it with him and Hannah buggaring off to Argentina.<br><br>
Obviously having watched the series from start to finish, there is no way in hell you want Dexter dead, so that was never a finale IMO.<br><br>
Killing Deb, a bit cliched TBH.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>When he dumped her body I thought he was gonna top himself too, but at least they didnt take an even weaker way out.<br><br>
If they werent gonna let him live happily ever after with Hannah, I dunno why they made him leave at all?<br><br>
The other option could have been to let him follow Hannah and Harrison, but just watch them and look out for them (which is what I thought they'd do when you saw her and Harrison) but no, they send him to be a logger and looking entirely miserable.<br><br>
After 8 years of Dexter, I think he deserved some happiness, although I guess they leave it like that so that I can thnk up my own scenario for him?<br><br>
All good shows must come to an end, but is a shame when they dont get the end right (well in my mind, I guess there will always be plenty that are unhappy with however they finish it.<br>

<p>[spoiler]Not sure where to now for Jax & Tara, I wonder if Jax will just tell her to leave and not come back, leaving the kids with him.<br><br>
Too many people knew what she was upto, and then faking that attack by Gemma just reinforced it, and then there is the lady that runs the Hospital too.<br><br>
Interesting to see what happens with the Irish, not sure the club voting on it was the best idea, again, too many people knowing something like that....<br><br>
Business must be good for that lawyer chick in little old Charming, looked like an Aston Martin she was driving.[/spoiler]</p> -

<p>[spoiler]<br><br><br><br>
Read an interview with Sutter after the episode and he points out that if you watch back the whole Tara thing only took a couple of weeks in 'real time' from idea to blowup.<br><br>
What he is/was trying to show is her desperation not how clever or dumb she is.<br><br>
I'm guessing Jax will recognise the desperation for what it is.[/spoiler]</p>
