I liked it! I know it kinda got outta hand but I think that goes with all shows. Remember the scene where Rick, Glenn and Daryl are tied up on their knees leaning over the tub when the guy was taking a bat and cracking it over people's head and they would pull the person's head up and slice their throats? pretty gory!

They don't brandish weapons, the don't run, they pose no real threat other than potentially biting someone in the event that they are stupid or slow....or in this case being directed by the talentless people writing this show.

I've always been fascinated with what it wold be like to live in a post-apocalyptic world. The movies the road and the book of Eli entertained me for that reason. The walking dead has as well but has been harder to follow more recently. I'll give it a few more episodes and may bail if it does not improve. For me it comes down to 1 hr of mindless entertainment each week were I can give my brain a break from work...

I'm with you. My apologies if I came across as ripping on you, not my intent. I have a tendency to go off the deep end on occasion. This show just pisses me off. For those that enjoy it, I say keep watching it and do what makes you happy. For me, I feel that my time is worth a dollar amount; if it's beneficial or entertaining it's worth my time. If I were able to bill hours lost, the creators of this show would owe me a considerable amount of money.

Hank Aziria from Simpsons fame among others. Well written, damn I laughed out loud several times....mind you I'm a bit damaged.

Best line out of the first episode: "I thought I hit rock bottom in Thailand when a lady boy snorted crank of my Johnson while a sunburnt German tourist sitting on the crapper watched"...

[Captain Blood]

Finished episode four of the haunting of hill house. Fantastic!

It's from Kids in the Hall, a Canadian series that ran in the USA on HBO and CBS about 20 years ago. I'm surprised it's not available on demand.

Yes, same show. BBC commissioned the show and Netflix entered into a distribution deal to air it.

No worries at all. No harm taken or assumed. The show is a polarizing entity. I agree with the time spent/wasted. In the evenings I tend to look for mindless escapism in televised content. I'll watch shark tank, some on demand movie, anything to take me away from the day. So I consider it less of a loss and more of a distraction. Thus with shitty shows or episodes I walk away with a "well that sucked" view vs lost time - since my time was really being wasted anyway...like now I'm watching outrageous acts of science It's an awful show, but while I'm working through year end evals for my team it's a good background distraction.

I'm very familiar with KITH I had just never seen this skit of theirs before. There are some days I still hum "These are the Daves I Know."

Completely agree with you on Outrageous Acts of Science. That show could be a decent watch if it wasn't for the commentators. Some of the clips shown are actually pretty cool. My go to background distraction is usually The First 48 or Forensic Files.

Finished Homecoming last night. Not quite what I was expecting but was a solid watch.

Once in a while I like to watch a series that makes me laugh.

Last season of The Guest Book made me laugh out loud, and the new season is just as good and f'd up.

[Haywood]

Almost finished with the last season of "House of Cards." Not sure if I'd like it without Spacey, but it's really good. Doug Stamper is the best character on the show. I want the Shepherd's to die!
