What'cha watchin' ?

I'm starting to think that Mary Steenburgen is playing his replacement next season.

I can see that happening.

Also need to say I fucking loved the line: "They used to call me "Beer Can" in high school."

I have never experienced a show's formula become so tired so quickly.

I'm talking of course about Chuck.

And yet so fun.

I was bored by Chuck by the end of the first season (I'm not even sure if I finished that far). I do NOT understand the love for that show at all.

CAUSE WE ARE SMARTER THAN YOU, POOPYPANTS

Take out Yvyonene Strashfivonski and tell me you would still have enjoyed the show.

And it was fun, really.

Maybe to a certain degree, yeah. When they took her out and replaced her with the Cylon chick it wasn't as fun. But a big part if that was probably the writing, which was uneven. And I think a big part of that was the constant uncertainty of renewal.

I don't think the formula wore too quickly at the beginning. The show was always better when it played to Chuck's non-Interesecf strengths, though. And that's something it really strayed from after the game changer at the end of the second season.

Once he became Neo I didn't give a shit.

[gravedigger]

Yep. It made everything too easy. They did continue to get some great villains that upped the stakes (seriously, Superman was an excellent bad guy) and the humor from the B squad was good. But Chuck himself wasnt quite as entertaining anymore. I still haven't watched the DVD set of the last season even though the completist in me bought it right away.

[Captain Russ]

The supporting players and the antagonists are very enjoyable.

But whenever the focus is squarely on Chuck and his ridiculous family (an exception can be made for Quantum Leap) or the "will they or won't they" bullshit I want to scream like a drunk child.

The return of Pornstache was glorious. I really don't like what Vee has done to Crazy Eyes. Vee is appearing so evil now that I assume it's going to be great shades of Oz by the end and there will be blood.

FARGO was amazing this week. Billy is fantastic.

[BillyG]

Billy is fantastic.

Awww thanks man. Means a lot.

[Ben Thomas]

FARGO was amazing this week. Billy is fantastic.

That last scene had shades of the Andrea stuff from Breaking Bad. Lester gone from being pathetic to badass all the way through to piece of shit. But I'd still rather see Malvo somehow go down at Solverson's hands than Lester.

[Matt]

Someone on DERP came up with the best ending to FARGO: Lester ends up in prison, goes to the cafeteria, and accidentally sits down across from William H. Macy. Cut to black.

God I hope that happens.

Not gonna lie, that would be a nice capper.
