Your pics aren't working but Ana looks decent. I doubt Dushku will get her clothes off this late in her career when she hasn't needed to yet (Banshee isn't prestige drama where established actresses go to get their kit off). I've never been a huge fan of hers but I watched all of Dollhouse.

I was about to post same thing! 
True Detective is starting much later than last year! 
Vikings - Hard to know what Ragnar is up to and what he does and doesn't know! 
The old King of Wessex is a slimey buggar! 
Lagertha still as hot as ever. 
Really enjoying Justified, but man I hope they aren't setting up Raylan with Markham's new gunslinger.....

Justified is good this season, sadly the last, the new gunslinger is ok, but I'm kind of annoyed they didn't make more out of Dillahunt and the ginger from ER/Band of Brothers. They seemed to waste those characters. I'm at the stage where I want to see both Boyd and Raylan come out of this fine, but I know it's not going to happen - and I want more Winona.
 
Final of Shameless last night, I thought it was an ok season even though it's getting a bit panned. Jegga will love the nudity quantity, they seemed to accelerate it at the end of the season.
 
Mad Men is back, yay, but I'm miles behind on my TV watching. Still have the final two Banshee episodes to watch, two latest Vikings episodes, one The Americans episode (which has been great this year), all of Better Call Saul and a bunch of episodes from timewaster shows like Arrow/Flash.

Some googling and oogling confirms both have had moments in their careers where they haven't been shy.

I stand corrected, I didn't know Dushku had got her kit off in the past - I'm still scarred by the fact that Odette Yustman (the Native American chick) is about the only female over the age of 18 who hasn't got her kit off on the show.

[spoiler]Yeah I kinda expected him to go where this new gunslinger is likely to go. 
I also like hiim, but I fear they are setting Raylan up for a showdown at high noon, and with it being the grand finale, they best not be killing Raylan! 
Was hoping Raylan would let Ava go, and with this, Boyd. 
Be a shame for either (or both) to come to a bloody end! [/spoiler]

So apparently the first four episodes of the new season of Game of Thrones leaked online tonight. Rumors say two more will leak as well. Sourced from screeners.

taniwharugby

I wondered if they were real...think I'll wait.

Sky just still don't get it do they? (or want to get it).
 
A main reason GoT is the most pirated show in the world is that it's distribution was screwed up. People these days want to watch things as they want, when they want. HBO required a full Cable subscription and provided no other avenue to purchase. That easily seeded the ground for copies to be distributed, even to people who would prefer to pay.
Now Sky, who own the NZ broadcast and online rights, have only half pie met the need. I have subscribed to SoHo so I can watch the new series of GoT and Orphan Black. That entails a full Sky sub plus the SoHo add on. Yet if I want to watch it away from my sky decoder, I am expected to pay another $20 a month for the streaming version on Neon.
They won't stream channels like SoHo on SkyGo because they want to make you pay twice for the same thing.
This is my first foray into paying for this product and in doing the 'right' thing, I have removed the ability to watch when and where I want.
 
Edit: anyone else got that theme tune running through their head today?

I guess now that you pay for it you can download it guilt free from other places and watch it at your leisure.

Yeah, it just pisses me off that Sky deliberately try to hang on to old school ways as long as they can.
 
Their Neon service should be free to subscribers of content. If I pay for SoHo I should get SoHo content available on that platform for the current period (1 week). I will pay more if I want to access movies content or back catalogue.
 
I hardly download anything since Lightbox came along. Plenty to watch on that, and with full binge back catalogue capability. Only improvement would be if I could buffer a show on wifi then watch it when not connected (with a time limit of course). Would be great to access an episode at work then watch it on the train on the way home.

Seems a bit bonkers that they haven't made it available to subscribers. That would tip me over the edge and I'd unsubscribe from SoHo to be honest.
 
So have you been watching rugby on streams all this time?

No. Have Sky and Mysky and Skysport. Can watch games when the happen on my iPad though through SkyGo, which can be quite good if away from home or if the game is an early one, I will sometimes have it going on the ipad in the kitchen while cooking. Late ones, I can watch in bed.
 
I admit that I can only watch them outside of broadcast time if I record them but for live sport that doesn't worry me so much as if I don't watch it live I usually scan through the game.

Anyone with Foxtel should no longer be downloading episodes now that it's screened at the same time as the US.
 
Small wonder Australians are horrific piraters the way the distributors have treated them over the years.

poor old Sky TV...first episodes get leaked, then...

Crack up. So yet again I would be able to download and watch before I get to see it on the medium I pay for.
 
Massive fail.

A google of GoT simulcast problem only shows up the NZ issue. So not HBOs fault by the look of it.

taniwharugby

Are other places airing it 'live' as well, given it'd be 2am in the UK?
 
I still struggle to work out how (and I guess why) these get leaked, unless done so on purpose, and then, what is the benefit to the 'leaker'? I mean surely only x number exist, and only certain people have access, are peope willing to risk thier job to leak them?
 
Maybe they need to ditch the old screeners, as often these are good quality versions that get leaked well in advance.
 
You can d/l from pretty much any Torrent site for free, do all those annoying pop-ups go towards paying the 'leaker' or is it the prestige of being the first?

Crucial

UK is one of the few countries that haven't taken up the simulcast, presumably because of the time.
 
I don't really care as I most likely won't be watching until after 8.30 anyway, but the joke is that this was all done by HBO to help reduce the number of torrents and Sky took up the offer to drive sales of SoHo so that people could watch it quicker than waiting for a torrent.
 
Seems a lot of people have subscribed to SoHo because of the earlier showing and they are the ones making the most noise and now suggesting they just go back to the illegal ways.
 
If Sky didn't have such a track record of fails every time they get a technological loading you could forgive them for this, but SkyGo seems to crash everytime there is a major event as well.
