Irish Joe posted:Game of Thrones isn't over and Walt dies in the end. Deadwood is probably the best American example of a bad guy winning because Hearst rolls over everyone, gets everything he wants and departs town with a smirk on his face. Walt's fate has very little to do with the plot of the show, it was going to happen even if nothing else in the show ever happened. IMO the main flaw with BB's last season is that Walt pretty much got everything he wanted in the end. Deadwood is irrelevant as that wasn't supposed to be the last season.

CeeJee posted:One thing they really did not take from the Scandinavian series was how Saga Noren was quite a happy person, just not good with people. More importantly they didn't take the reasons why she is so good at her job. Here she is just magically making deductions for little reason. Saga is shown pretty much working 24 hours a day, every day.

Maxwell Lord posted:Even if it's hard to pick out favorites among the cast, the show itself should have gotten a nod- it's one of the best and most assured first seasons I've ever seen for a comedy. How about no stunt work nominations for Strike Back, Banshee or Arrow? That might be the most ridiculous of all.

Lugaloco posted:If the last half-season of Mad Men is as strong as this year's then I could definitely see Hamm picking up a bunch of stuff next go around if not this time. Mad Men was loving great this year. Most people found it pretty mediocre until the last couple of episodes.

The Almighty Johnsons is debuting tonight on Syfy. I've watched all three seasons and I'd definitely recommend it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bd80D347iSI

raditts posted:Hahah, what the gently caress? Is that show a comedy or what, because I thought it was supposed to be a crime show with a bizarre name. I'd say it's kind of like Castle, but without the romance.

DrVenkman posted:I wonder if Lindelof/Cuse will ever admit to that of if it was just coincidence. As it happens though, no he wasn't. He, for some reason, didn't want to live in Hawaii and wanted to pursue other roles. The only other thing I saw him in was GI Joe. He had a fairly big role in Hunted.

GreenNight posted:The British one is the only good one. The Australian one (which has nothing to do with any of the others) is actually very funny. It's from the same people who made the brilliant Frontline.

BSam posted:It's funny, but it's not as good as Frontline, or Hollowmen which was a more recent show from the same team. Frontline is in a class of its own. I find Utopia just as good as Hollowmen, personally.

Deadpool posted:Well "With Live+7 DVR viewing factored in, Dome was the summer’s No. 1 scripted series, averaging 11 million viewers and a 2.7 rating." seems to explain at least one of them. UTD and Extant are pretty much unique cases where the ratings don't matter much at all. CBS made huge streaming deals with Amazon, and between those and foreign sales the shows are profitable no matter what the ratings are.
