So, Phoebe & Ross are the only Friends not currently starring in TV shows? -- nm - prayformojo Feb 10, 09:26 15
- I had to look up LeBlanc. That's kind of an obscure show he's on. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:30 9
  - I don't know that Showtime promotes their original programming as heavily as, say HBO or AMC -- nm - con_carne Feb 10, 09:32 7
    - Maybe it's because I have Showtime...but I feel like I was beat over the head with Episodes. -- nm - Jim Feb 10, 09:33 6
      - I don't have Showtime and knew of the show months before it aired. -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 09:40
      - I will say this though...the blitz for Episodes was probably only 30% or so of the blitz for Shameless. -- nm - Jim Feb 10, 09:34
      - I don't get Showtime, never heard of it. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:33 3
        
        Its a premium cable channel similar to HBO -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:34 2
        
        but that's not important right now. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:34 1
        
        ding! -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:35
  - Not really. So of course you did. -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 09:31

i did not know that the Justified tv show was getting the author of the short that created it back into writing a new novel titled "Raylan" -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 10, 09:25 1
- actually I found out from Life After Film School that Elmore Leonard had written three things that featured Raylan Givens, I' thought it was just one -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:26
Did we win? -- nm - Egyptians Feb 10, 09:24 1

- Poor you? -- nm - con_carne Feb 10, 09:22
Mr.Sunshine felt like a poor attempt at a 30 Rock ripoff. But 30 Rock started off a little wobbly, so I guess there's potential there. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Feb 10, 09:20 4
- First off, as far as I know...(spoils) - HdnAgnda Feb 10, 09:25
- So Matthew Perry is going to charge that windmill again? -- nm - Mop Feb 10, 09:23
- The majority of the 30 Rock's wobble was because Tina was still writing SNL for the first several weeks. -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 09:22
- the cast is incredible, the writers might need a kick in the nads though -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:21
XMen: First Class pic and trailer debut tomorrow. -- (link) - HdnAgnda Feb 10, 09:20 2
- trailer is today via facebook -- nm - Remlik Feb 10, 09:32 1
  - Ayup. Correct. That link was posted yesterday. -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 10, 09:37
i have to admit this to ST - tRuMaN Feb 10, 09:17 9
- I've never watched it before. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 10, 09:36
- I don't find this unfathomable. - Dr.Vermin Feb 10, 09:29 1
  - well i did add one for Sons of Guns. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 10, 09:36
- I'm not going to heap scorn. Not everyone likes the same things. -- nm - Mop Feb 10, 09:25 4
  - try disliking Disney, then get back to me. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:32 2
    - Well, there's not everyone likes comedy and then there's some people are soulless. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 10, 09:33 1
      - sure, but why drag hyde into this? -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:34
  - sure sure, you all say that know, but some will attempt to taunt me with this when they - tRuMaN Feb 10, 09:27
- it would be a lame world if we all had the same tastes -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:23
Crap. Wait, am I seeing this right, Justified Season 2 will *not* be on Hulu? - musubi Feb 10, 09:17 17
- wait, it's on streaming while it's on TV? -- nm - amanda jones Feb 10, 09:38
- I have no idea. But last night they introduced this season's Big Bad. And it is going to be awesome -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:20 15
  - This is the kind of taunting that would justify a shooting. Just sayin'. (nm) - musubi Feb 10, 09:21 14
    - Geez, a "Just sayin'" followup really does allow you to say anything at *all*... -- nm - con_carne Feb 10, 09:25 3
      - You should be more like your twin. Just sayin'. -- nm - David Feb 10, 09:28 2
        
        I'll get you next time, Mumpo--Oh wait. - con_carne Feb 10, 09:34 1
        
        Hee! -- nm - David Feb 10, 09:40
    - nmbm - Spawn Feb 10, 09:22 1
      - Mahalo, that's great. (nm) - musubi Feb 10, 09:25
    - Yeah, Crash, don't make me take you to Bulletville. -- nm - David Feb 10, 09:22 6
      - Seriously, I'm not taunting. I'm just saying last night's episode was something else. -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:25 5
        
        Unitentional taunting is still taunting. (nm) - musubi Feb 10, 09:28 4
        
        But taunting that you can make someone believe is unintentional taunting is cool -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:29 3
        
        Justified. Just sayin. (nm) - musubi Feb 10, 09:30 2
        
        there is an answer I want to give you but it would be a spoiler, so I'm frustrated - caught in a trap of my own making, I am -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:32 1
        
        Do the mime stuck in a box routine!!! Do it!!!!! - Will Hunting Feb 10, 09:34
    - I'm not taunting. I'm just telling you that if you can't get it this season, you are going to miss out -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:22
Stuck at home with a vomiting baby who also happens to have the worst throaty cough ever. I know, I know... - Mop Feb 10, 09:16 1
- nah, just give her a shot of Jameson's and let her sleep it off -- nm - decline Feb 10, 09:17
I blame ST for this: "Sinbad's Family Affair" greenlit for the WE channel -- (link) - MDH Feb 10, 09:05 5
- STOP watching WE! -- nm - zork Feb 10, 09:15
- Weren't you the one who brought him up? -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 10, 09:08 3
  - spoiler - con_carne Feb 10, 09:10
  - No! Don Homer thought it was me, and made jokes with my "si" I've never spoken about him! -- nm - MDH Feb 10, 09:09 1
    - this happens a lot, unfortunately. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:10
Modern Family was a bit of an EPIC FAIL last night. - Spawn Feb 10, 09:03 20
- I think I may have finally convinced Mrs.Vermin to watch Dawn of the Dead after this ep. - Dr.Vermin Feb 10, 09:28
- Phil was almost naked. -- nm - Mop Feb 10, 09:14
- Maybe I'm just comparing it to last year's VD episode but I thought last night's was weak. -- nm - Dano Feb 10, 09:11 2
  - i agree. -- nm - Andie Feb 10, 09:26
  - I loved that there was a callback to last year's VD. I remember on shows like Gilmore Girls... - Mop Feb 10, 09:15
- okay, your IM explains why you aren't insane. I laughed a heck of a lot -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:09 2
  - Agreed. - Spawn Feb 10, 09:16 1
    - spoils - crash davis Feb 10, 09:19
- That's the other thing about Mr. Sunshine. They didn't do it any favors by slotting it after Modern Family. - David Feb 10, 09:04 7
  - I watched Mr. Sunshine last after the following events, Valentines with the Dunphys, a trip to Harlan KY, visiting the kitchen of Colicchio & Sons, & - crash davis Feb 10, 09:12 5
    - We won't Justified until tonight. I'm getting twitchy about it. -- nm - David Feb 10, 09:14 4
      - If anything, the quality of acting in that show is going up a notch this season. -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:17 3
        
        the big bad is stellar -- nm - Remlik Feb 10, 09:35 2
        
        Trish can't believe how everyone has a perfect Kentucky accent on the show -- nm - crash davis Feb 10, 09:37 1
        
        It's the mandatory lobotomies as part of the pre-casting physical. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 10, 09:37
  - Totally agreed on that. They didn't work well together. - musubi Feb 10, 09:11
- relater to my post below, Modern Family scored a 5.0 18-49 (insane) and topped Glee in that category for the week. -- nm - MDH Feb 10, 09:04 3
  - Not insane. Quite the opposite, really. -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 09:04 2
    - Word. - con_carne Feb 10, 09:12 1
      - I would not go that far. It has it's place. - Spawn Feb 10, 09:30
Mr. Sunshine premiers very well: 3.7 18-49 rating 10.57M viewers (Cougar Town usually 2.5-7 and between 6-7M viewers) -- (link) - MDH Feb 10, 09:02 2
- i'm not sure if it aired this way in the US, but in Canada is was Perry vs Cox last night. Awkward. -- nm - Andie Feb 10, 09:22 1
  - They pulled Cougar Town and Sunshine is in it's spot. -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 09:27
"Dance gracefully" = funny -- nm - prayformojo Feb 10, 09:00
ST PSA .... TAR starts up again on the 20th ... is it too soon to start placing bets? -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Feb 10, 08:59
So, I dreamed I was in a bar and ScarJo and Olivia Wilde walked in, quite drunk. -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 08:58 4
- Which one puked on your shoes? -- nm - pmb Feb 10, 09:03
- Holy crap, I'm in a gay bar! -- nm - Spawn si Feb 10, 08:59 2
  - Enjoy your deathtrap ladies! -- nm - Homer Simpson Feb 10, 09:28
  - I would be okay with that. That is a couple I would have *no* trouble watching. -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 09:01
Hee hee. One of the oldest memes in television PR: dressing the cast up in white. -- (link) - con_carne Feb 10, 08:57 1
Mr. Sunshine is a show I expect to like due to the cast being comprised of people I love but that pilot was dreadful. -- nm - David Feb 10, 08:56 28
- i fell asleep. -- nm - Andie Feb 10, 09:16
- Could I *be* any more damaged in this? -- nm - Matthew Perry Feb 10, 09:01 3
  - Dammit, I wish he would get a good show. He was my runaway favorite from Friends. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:02 2
    - If you take the quality parts of Studio 60, he was halfway there. - Will Hunting Feb 10, 09:06 1
      - I loved him in that ... it was the rest of the show I couldn't get into. Your IM exactly. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:07
- I didn't think it was terrible. Not great, but not bad. It's got potential to be better. - musubi Feb 10, 08:59 6
  - Andrea Anders didn't seem to know what she was doing. - David Feb 10, 09:01 5
    - They're not actually best friends. - musubi Feb 10, 09:04 4
      - It's still icky. -- nm - David Feb 10, 09:06 3
        
        Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they knocked it out of the park, by any means. I just see potential to be a lot better in the near future. - musubi Feb 10, 09:07 2
        
        I do kinda agree with Andrea Anders though, she was not as spot on as she was in Better Off Ted. - musubi Feb 10, 09:09 1
        
        That may be my problem. Better Off Ted and Studio 60 are two of my top 10 shows of the 2000s. I may be expecting too much. -- nm - David Feb 10, 09:11
- i recorded it but havent watched it yet. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 10, 08:58
- I could not watch the whole pilot. It felt like forced jokes that were not that good. -- nm - peglegpete Feb 10, 08:57
- can you elaborate? -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 08:57 13
  - It was a bad combination of forced zany behavior from oddball characters and the wrong type of cynicism. - David Feb 10, 09:00 10
    - I get what you're saying about Janney's character, but I still liked her performance. - musubi Feb 10, 09:02 6
      - The cast is Better Off Ted + Studio 60 with Hurley thrown in. I have to like that, right? -- nm - David Feb 10, 09:03 5
        
        this just reminded me of Janney's horrid guest appearance on Lost. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:04
        
        Wasn't Hurkey just a guest? - Spawn Feb 10, 09:04 3
        
        He was brought on as an emergency hire and is presumed to go to full time if the show gets more episodes. -- nm - David Feb 10, 09:05 2
        
        I quite liked his scenes. "Your name is Bob Bobbinson Bobbert?" -- nm - Reagen Feb 10, 09:09 1
        
        Yup, Hurley was one of the stronger points I think can be emphasized in the future. - musubi Feb 10, 09:12
    - I figured they would drive home the fact that she is *not* CJ. -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 09:02
    - ugh. I hate the first thing. I'll give it a try (didnt' know it was on last night) because I love the cast. -- nm - loosilu Feb 10, 09:01
    - Ah, they kept the writer from Away We Go. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 10, 09:01
  - He likes the cast but it was awful. How much more do you need? -- nm - Spawn Feb 10, 08:59 1
    - Bad writing ... stupid plotting ..... dull as painting drying etc etc -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 10, 09:00
I don't know...we own a house and it's pretty simple. You get a form with your interest statement and you enter the amount. And from irs.gov: - Jim Feb 10, 08:54
JackDawson alert: Gov. Chafee issued a written statement in support of same-sex marriage to the House Judiciary Committee yesterday. - TFox Feb 10, 08:54 5
- And Cuomo's promising another go at it in the NY Legislature. -- nm - znufrii Feb 10, 09:02 2
  - He just needs to carefully assist the indictments of the opposing forces. - Will Hunting Feb 10, 09:04 1
    - Seriously. As John Hancock famously said (or not)... - znufrii Feb 10, 09:06
- How is this even a question? -- nm - David Feb 10, 08:56
- Well said. -- nm - Jim Feb 10, 08:55
