<p>No spoilers there, theres an awful lot packed into it. I think you'll be rewinding the last episode over a few scenes and picking up a lot the second time around.</p> -

<p>:) I did offer to spoiler quotes everything when I first started commenting on it but I was told I was the only one who hadn't watched it!</p>

4 eps in and I'm trying to work things out....Krugers character cracks me up! -
<p>Anyone watch Gotham? </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I liked it, be interesting to see how they move it along in time toward Batman....</p> -
<p>So Californication has been on a bit here lately, think it's season 5 and 6, and have been watching a bit since I gave up at about season 3.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Anyway, the one question I can't get over with that show is how did two of the most attractive people (the ex-wife is an absolute stunner and not that I am an authority on these things but Duchovny does OK for himself) produce a daughter who is so plain? And she's just so whiny as well.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It's currently filling the same niche Entourage did for me, a bit of mindless Hollywood comedy/drama with plenty of sex, nudity, drugs and swearing. Pretty much a carbon copy of my life in suburban Sydney ;)</p> -
Episode 6 of Black Sails and while having threatened to take off since episode 1 it just plods along. Have come this far so will see it out to the end, but pretty farking disappointed. These so-called pirates are gayer than the Errol Flynn version.

<p>1 episode to go in "The Bridge" seems like there is too much happening to finish in an hour, so i expect a cliffhanger to lead in to Season 3.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>FX is showing all of "The Walking Dead" this weekend, 4 seasons straight. Wonder how much the hard drive on my Austar box can handle?</p> -
<p>Finally got around to watching ep 1 of SOA....shit be happening! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]Jax really has gone over the edge! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I really do wonder if Sutter will kill off Gemma! She is such a nasty peice of work!<br><br>
Will Nero save her when Jax learns the truth?<br><br>
If anyone kills her, it should be Uncer...but I reckon either Jax will get killed and his junkie ex take the kids or Jax will buggar off with the kids, leaving her all alone once everyone learns the truth, (cos Jax will need to leave anyway) because we know she will also be very quick to save her ass by spiling the beans about what Jax was about to do as well.[/spoiler]</p>

<p>I cant access this thread at work as it tells me there is pornography in it somewhere! </p> -
Sadly just watched the final episode of Southland tonight. No, this isn't a reality show set amongst the racy world of horny dairy farmers in Otautau, but a gritty show about cops in Los Angeles which I really got into after discovering series 4 and 5 on late midweek. The finale of series 5 wasn't supposed to be the final episode ever but TNT for some reason decided to shitcan it and didn't renew it a little over a year ago. Shame, because this was the best cop show I've seen since NYPD Blue, and its no coincidence that these shows shared some creative influence. Had series six been filmed it would have started with some ripper storylines. Sigh. At least TWD is back on in less than a fortnight.

<p>I enjoyed the books, have you read those? Are they doing one novel a season or stretching it out even further?</p>

<p>I haven't. Will check them vs the show via the magic of wikipedia. Maybe the problem is compounded by having little character development etc to space out the plot effectively?</p> -

<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote">After the first book's publication, studios and networks began making offers for the film and television adaptation rights, but del Toro and Hogan declined, not wanting a screen version to influence the way they were writing the books. After the third book's publication, the authors talked with every cable network that had expressed interest. FX was deemed most suitable because they wanted to follow the books closely and liked the idea of <i>The Strain</i> as a close-ended series consisting of three to five seasons. Del Toro stated that the first two novels can be covered by one season each, while <i>The Night Eternal</i> may be split into two or three seasons. The author is also open to creative detours that may develop as the series goes on, possibly incorporating material cut from the books. Del Toro intends to direct as many episodes as his busy schedule allows.<sup><a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Strain_(TV_series)#cite_note-Deadline-24'><span>[</span>24<span>]</span></a></sup> Before the series order was announced, FX gave the writing team the go-ahead to script another ten episodes, which del Toro rewrote.<sup><a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Strain_(TV_series)#cite_note-27'><span>[</span>27<span>]</span></a></sup> FX president <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Landgraf' title="John Landgraf">John Landgraf</a> has stated that the series will consist of "39–65 episodes, no less, no more", adding "What if a television show could be just the length that is optimal for that story?"<sup><a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Strain_(TV_series)#cite_note-28'><span>[</span>28<span>]</span></a></sup></blockquote>
