Looking for a new TV show

I'm very much into Wilfred now. Good stuff.

 

It wasn't on your list, but I'm with IJAG: Dexter is the shit. Watching from the beginning is beneficial but not necessarily needed. And each season is its own story arc, which is nice.

The conclusion to season 4 comes in the mail today. We get a lot of use out of Netflix. Season 5 available on Aug. 16, and it's at the top of our queue.

 

OMG THE SEASON 4 FINALE IS GOING TO BLOW YOUR EVERLOVING MIND.

 

Right? It was intoxicating watching him. Like I was revolted, but drawn in, but disgusted, but hooked. So awesome.

Also, burned through all 20 eps of Party Down last night on Netflix instant. Took me about 2.5 eps before I got hooked, but then I was in. I heart Megan Mullally.

 

The scene at the end of the high school reunion episode of Ron vomiting is one of my favorite comedy scenes ever. I laughed so hard at that.

 

Saw the new BBC series Sherlock based on one of my co-workers recommendations. REALLY good. The first series was only three episodes, but each one was an hour and a half.

Honestly, I cannot recommend this one enough. And it's on Netflix Instant Watch.

 

dreu, I think "Wrong fat guy with glasses!" is my new favorite line.

 

This. "Call an ambulance!"

Also, Uda's speech to Henry at the close of Season 1 is one of my favorite bits of awkward comedy in quite some time.

"I have a kid. But he's very quiet and no trouble."

 

Holy cow. Holy cow. I should have seen it coming, but still, holy cow.

Strange aside: John Lithgow is doing the voice of some young dude on Matlock this morning, kinda like Glenn Close did in that movie with Andie MacDowell, Graystoke: Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes. Just a little disconcerting to hear Arthur's voice coming out of this dude who looks nothing like him.

 

Told you. That might be the best season of any television show ever.

 

Agreed. It surpassed Season 1 which up to that point had been the best season in the series. Last season, while good, was a bit of a letdown from how great Season 4 was.
Looking forward to Season 6 beginning October 2.

 

Yep, Lithgow was amazing in that role. I can see why he won an Emmy for it. Truly a frightening guy. I wonder exactly how much Arthur was based on the BTK serial killer because from what I remember about him, he was the same kind of person.

I can't wait to see what happens in Season 5. Shit, it's gonna be damn near a month before I get the first disk on Netflix, and Miss L is now hooked, too.

Crikey.
