I like Jamie Bell but my TV list is too long as it is. And the commercials always look so boring...

Yeah, I know how that is. I only watch 1 half-hour program most days, so it's hard for me to add new shows to my 'to-watch' list.

Anyway, here is an update:

Actively watching:
Twlight Zone - Season 3
AHP - Season 4
Mad Men - Season 7
Random episode of MST3K if I have 90 minutes to spare

Started, but now backburner'd:
The Following - Season 3
Psych - Season 7

Future List:
Thriller - Season 1 and 2
AHP - Season 5
Twilight Zone - Seasons 4 and 5
Walking Dead - Seasons 4 and 5
Continuum - Season 4
Psych - Season 8
Revenge - Season 4

Mad Men - season 7

Same here.  These last two seasons have been middling at best, but I'm still going to miss it.  A mediocre season of Mad Men is still good TV.  And its brilliant early seasons will stand as some of the best television ever made. 


^This, though I disagree about the last 2 seasons; I thought they were great.

I'm going to miss it too. The only currently-running show I'm watching (but behind on) after Mad Men ends on Sunday will be The Walking Dead.

I watched season 1 of Turn and liked it at first, but towards the end it got soapy. I really don't have much interest or sympathy for the adulterous couple.
Daredevil, the Netflix series, was terrific and I can't wait for the next season.
Arrow was pretty lame this season, though I'd enjoyed the previous two. At this point, Starling City should just announce an automatic evacuation every May to avoid their annual terrorist attack.

I've been watching Wolf Hall on Amazon Prime.  It's woefully inaccurate history; but it is superbly done drama.  I feel guilty liking it so much. lol.

We've been watching Wolf Hall on PBS and, while I liked the novel  better, isn't that [almost] always the case?   We thought they did a good job compressing all the events that transpired in the novel into the series of six one-hour episodes and that the actor portraying Thomas Cromwell was very good.  Of course the dialogue was not exactly authentic for the period and who knows exactly what Henry VIII said to Cromwell about Anne Boleyn, or anything else, but why do you think it was "woefully inaccurate history"?

Was supposed to be the Grimm finale but I couldn't get a clear signal. DON'T TELL ME WHO DIED. Might check out Wayward Pines in a bit.

Yes, or at least seems to be from the promos I saw.

I've only seen the first few episodes of Twin Peaks. I've heard Wayward Pines described as Truman Show meets The Prisoner. The characters are not all as quirky and secretive as TP because everyone is stuck in the town, so most of them sympathize with the agent. Next week is the big reveal episode so we'll see!

Flipping from X Games to the A's game at my sister's place. I want cable. Jealous.

...and they just referred to one of the players as The Green Monster. How apropos.

Mr. Robot.  Pretty entertaining, if not a bit full of despair.
