I watched a season and a half of The League.

Its a comedy show about a group of friends that have a fantasy football league.

not as solid as it was in the first 1.5 seasons where it then started to slightly be a little loose.

still good viewing (especially Sloane - 2014 version of Gillian Anderson)


Newsroom was awful and I'm glad it's finished.

first few seasons are excellent, goes down hill and turns into a bad gross out sitcom, probably happened when they tried to broaden the appeal.

rafi and dirty randy are awesome though and need their own spinoff show :D

i watched the first episode of 'forever' last night. i really liked it. A bit different and pretty clever. I look forward to seeing how the show pans out.

Also Gotham is back today, can't wait to watch it.

How to get away with murder. Wasn't a fan early on but it has swayed me to like it... Good show.

I watched the D-Grade celebrity fest on ch10, to find out who the actual "celebrities" were, but after that, had no interest in watching the remainder of the show.

Given the amount of money ch10 has spent on promoting it, they'll be desperate for it to succeed, but Ive got my doubts on what ratings it will get.

The shitness of a TV show is proportional to the amount of promotion the network needs to provide before it begins.

I'm watching Orange is the new black - and am now at the end of series 2 (1 ep to go).

I'm missing something. This isn't doing it for me at all. Everyone's raving over it but I feel it's a bit disjointed for mine.

Enjoyed the 1st series, but got 3 ep's into season 2 and haven't been back for another look. Disappointing because I was really into it initially.
