Thoughts on The Wire finale
It was pretty good, not great, but good. It's sad to know that after 5 years nothing has changed at all in Baltimore. Dookie being an addict suckkkksss,,, Mike being the new Omar worked for me, Namond and Bunny were great, Marlo not being able to be Bell worked, the shit with McNulty/Freeman seemed to be glossed over way too fast, Omar getting shot by that fucking little kid was weaksauce though. I hate that we were robbed of a Marlo/Omar showdown...Mike shooting Snoop was perfect "How's my hair look?"
It was a pretty good show but I didn't think it was the BEST SHOW EVER MADE. To be honest I actually enjoyed The Shield much more as a whole. That being said, good stuff and now we're on to OZ."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet. I mean that as a compliment" - BillyG

I agree with Rob on the fact that Omar needed and deserved a better exit.

HOUSE OF CARDS (on Netflix)
We got through episodes 1 and 2 last night. This is pretty damned great so far.
Quick premise: Kevin Spacey is the Majority Whip in Congress, and he helped the newly elected president get elected. In return, he was promised a cabinet position in the new administration. Well, the president reneges on the deal and leaves Spacey in congress ('he needs you there'). Spacey is pissed, so he works his power behind the scenes to essentially fuck over the administration.
Great stuff with some truly dark humor to it. Spacey is constantly breaking the 4th wall and talking to the audience, letting us in on what's really going on in any given scene. He does it with panache and charm. The supporting cast is all really solid, and the writing is top notch.
Good stuff. Check it out.Originally posted by MartinWho the fuck is Kellan Lutz?Originally posted by gravediggerBasically what I'm saying is that, based on what I've watched so far, we should all listen to Matt more often.Originally posted by MartinAnd who the FUCK is Peaches Geldof?

Crying with laughter at The Inbetweeners.
After Jay shoots off the flare in the harbor:
"WHY THE FUCK DID YOU DO THAT?"
"To get the sea police out!"
"For what? To say 'we caught a fish'?!!?!?" and then Neil punching the fish to death absolutely ruined me."Here, young man, your hormones are raging. Let's go in this bedroom, and we'll engage in some homosexual acts. You'll find you like it." - Rep. Ken Peterson, R-Billings

Finished The Wire this morning.
oh man, Dukie. Sadface to infinity.
It was certainly a "more things change, the more they stay the same" ending but I liked it overall. I was mostly happy that Bubbs turned out okay and Lester was able to retire happily. I can('t) believe fuckin' VALCHEK got the Commissioner spot.

Finished HOUSE OF CARDS last night.
It doesn't end as strongly as it begins, but it's still well worth the time and effort. It definitely sets up S2 to be a whopper.
Spacey was amazing (as usual), but Robin Wright was the revelation. I can see her picking up an award for this come the next Emmy Awards.Originally posted by MartinWho the fuck is Kellan Lutz?Originally posted by gravediggerBasically what I'm saying is that, based on what I've watched so far, we should all listen to Matt more often.Originally posted by MartinAnd who the FUCK is Peaches Geldof?
