Game of Thrones ... I saw you did a thread on that last month, but I thought it was, well, a game. The Wire was a top-notch show, as was another Baltimore-based cop show 'Homicide: Life on the Street.' People like The Shield, but there's no comparison to those other shows really. The Shield is overrated I think.

And I'm being told Pruitt Taylor Vince was not in 'The Jacket' (don't miss that movie). It's not listed on his IMDB filmography, but it must have been him ... the patient who sees Adrien Brodie young and old.

Lelo, what do you do?

Tombstone RJ · 02-11-2013, 01:08 PM

lol... TV IMHO is dead! I have to admit, the last "series" I watched on a continual basis was Californication and I LOVED THAT SHOW! This tells you how depraved I am.

Consequently, I called it quits.

Oh and Spartacus... I watched that too... not good for the soul.

BroncoBuff · 02-11-2013, 01:17 PM

Okay, Pruit Taylor Vince is not in 'The Jacket.'

But he is in two other of my top-10 sleeper movies, 'Jacob's Ladder' and 'Nobody's Fool' (Paul Newman one).

This show makes me wish I had pet zombies. Chop their arms off, rip their teeth out, put a collar and chain around their neck, and boom. Pet zombies. Was so cool what samurai lady did.

i wondered that as well. But i was thinking the bag was in the groups possession as far back as when Shane took it from Dale in the swamp by the farm.

So does this mean the gov is also a former cop? or does it mean nothing? But I don't think it can mean he killed the other group because I don't think rick gave them the bag, only some guns.

I have hated Spartacus since the start of season 3. Why the hell did they replace the actress that played Nivea?

And why in the hell did they have to replace the dead guy Spartacus with a guy with a ****ing English accent?

And this season there is just no development to the new roman characters at all. I had to go online and get a cast list just so I could find out who they were and follow the damn story. I'll be happy when it's over. Just crappy storytelling sandwiched in between gore and violence, sex scenes, and now gay sex scenes.

cutthemdown · 02-11-2013, 01:45 PM

The problem with a military base would be lots of zombies i would guess. But I also wondered why they never tried to get some military gear or raid police stations and gun stores etc etc.

Also they sort of don't show them looking for gas enough. They drive all over and never seem to run out of gas.

I liked the prequel gods of th arena probably best of all of them. It sort of has jumped the shark tank.

Had to be really tough when your star gets cancer and dies. I ****ing hate cancer with a passion. I'm only 43 and already have 3 friends dead from cancer and me brother thank god cured of leukemia.

How do you really get a new star and take off like nothing happened? Very tough to do. Could you imagine for instance if a show like Breaking Bad lost its lead, or even the supporting actor 2nd 3rd season? It would pretty much ruin any show but the Walking Dead lol.

You almost can kill off anyone in that show. But Rick, the little boy, sort of know it ain't happening.

I only watched the first season and all I know is the actor who played the original Spartacus died of cancer after the first season.

As far as the gay stuff. Hollywood puts it everywhere. The first time I watched Game of Thrones there was a homo scene.

Hollywood wants people to think homosexuality is normal. It's not. Sorry.

I still love it. Can't wait for each new episode (Though this is the final series). And I've read in a few diff places now that they are considering a spinoff series featuring the new Julius Caesar character they introduced.

Hope that's true.

As for Navea, she wanted more money. Not rare, but yeah, I liked her a LOT more than this new actress.

The first two season were amazing. Like you I thought the Nivea replacement and the Spartacus replacements were total fails. I just could never get into believing the new guy was even a shadow of what Spartacus should be. They just should have let the character go and continued with Gatticus in his place.

The first season was so good until the last five minutes. Had they kept it as a mini-series it would have been amazing.

In last nights episode it looked like there was a strange vibe going on between Rick and Beth.

She is taking on some sort of mother role to the baby. Really she could die soon because she is worthless as far as the story goes. But I never read the comics maybe she takes a larger role soon and lives.

You need to watch PBS. Downton Abby is the **** BOOOYYYEEEE!

Plus they have the American Experience (which is about Rockefeller this week), Front Line, Nova, Inside Lens, Masterpiece among other stuff like Austin City Limits.

PBS is what TV should have evolved into, not the lowest common denominator BS.

I do enjoy a good HBO series but not enough to pay for HBO, I just wait for the DVD's.

Every time I see the new Nivea I wonder how damn cool it would be to see the old hot Nivea be an ass kicker. Just sucks, the new one is just annoying as hell.

Thought they did a great job with the prequel when old Spartacus was fighting the cancer. Gannicus was just a great replacement for the new lead.

It really sucks, every time I watch I just wonder how much better it would have been with the original Spartacus and Nivea.

It's like Dallas, how much better that whole series would have been had Jim Davis not died.

I guess the talk is the bag should be a main character and people are tired of talking about it.

I saw photos after I googled it and Andrea had it on the back of the two walkers of Michonne.

See i can somewhat handle guys kissing as long as its brief but the softcore gay guy porn that Spartacus did last episode just turned my stomach. I fast forwarded through it and it just kept going on and on. Like the lazy bastards are just going for more shock value because they have no more ideas to advance their story, when there is a ton of content to go off of based just on history.

That would be cool. Could you imagine if they did Julius Caesar, then Augustus, then Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Nero, then fast forward to Commodus getting ****ed up by Russell Crowe. Freaking awesome stuff they could do with this.

You know what would make Spartacus a good show? If it was even remotely accurate. That would probably help it alot.

Yeah, but the history was so vague that a lot is open to interpretation. Though I know that He and Crixus split up and Crixus died awhile before Spartacus.

I bet they don't even kill Spartacus off, since they never found his body.
