Gromnir Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 No, they don't have any HBO. HBO has their own streaming service only available to cable subscribers actually, they do. is no streaming the current stuff, but shows that has been released on dvd is available from netflix via various methods. we just checked and all 5 seasons o' the wire is available via disc, at the very least.

Walsingham Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 I'd buy you a gift subscription, but it only lets me buy one for the US. The thought alone is immensely gratefully received. "It wasn't lies.

Calax Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 (edited) Netflix will basically keep you in TV shows until you cry uncle and give up. Including Burn Notice which is a PHENOMINAL tv show.

ManifestedISO Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 There is a very angry snake on a plane in this week's Agents of SHIELD ... perhaps even furious. Still loving Agent May more than anyone else. All stoic and badass and long legs, damn. 3 All Stop. On Screen.
BruceVC Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Talking about excellent but older TV series, has anyone seen The Shield with Vic Mackey as the main character. He is almost an anti-hero. I can't stress enough how brilliant this series is, its dark and the cops really cross the line in order to enforce the law. But it is the best cop series I have ever seen 1 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Amentep Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Yeah I enjoyed SHIELD. Glad they got the team building out of the way. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

Otherwise, kind of a 'meh' episode, but hey, the first season of Buffy was also pretty crap, so there's that.

All stoic and badass and long legs, damn. Dammit, was that on last night? I need to remember to set my DVR. we watched the episode last night and were unimpressed. it were very familiar to us, and not in a good way. were almost exact like A-team tv show. wont ruin it for you, but am not joking in the least. only 2 differences is more women on the team, and there is death 'stead o people scrambling-out-o'-the-burning-car-just-in-time as were a-team typical. it were campy and so far the chemistry is lacking. wheedon really likes buffy and cant let go. all his shows got a super-powered girl that kicks arse but just needs a hug. were kinda intrigued that current incarnation can drink legally in any state. am getting that ming na is 'posed to be wooden, 'stead 'o just teen perky or brain damaged, but somehow she is even less interesting than the previous buffys. am gonna tap out on this one fellas. yeah, we know it is gonna be a big success, but we already seen this decades ago with mister t, dirk benedict, george peppard and dwight schultz. HA! Good Fun! ps am admitting we needed to look-up dwight's name.

Gfted1 Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Ive only seen the pilot episode so far so I haven't gotten a good feel if this has staying power. Also watched the 2nd (3rd?) episode of Sleepy Hollow with the sleep demon. Meh, but Ill watch a few more episodes and see what develops. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"

Gfted1 Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 I just noticed that Zachery Quinto isn't part of the recurring cast in this series. Bummer, he was excellent in the previous two. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"

Unless it plummets in the next few months, I'd think its looking good for renewal. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet?

kgambit Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Started watching season 3 of Walking Dead. Finished Episode 3 - Governor is super creepy. He needs to be put down ..... 2
LadyCrimson Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Watched some of the network new series premieres. Michael J. Fox's show ... not as sitcom-y as I was expecting, which isn't good or bad, just not what I was envisioning. Fox himself is fine/great as always, but not convinced about the show itself. I did find myself shouting "Marie!" once, tho. The actress playing Fox's wife is Marie from Breaking Bad. Cool to see her do something less...tormented. Robin William's show - oh man when he adlibs stuff, he's so hilarious. But kinda like with the Fox show, the jist of the series is a bit dubious. Williams is the only reason to watch, I'd guess. “Things are as they are.

Gfted1 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Fox gives 'Sleepy Hollow' early renewal for Season 2. 1 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Hurlshort Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Fox gives 'Sleepy Hollow' early renewal for Season 2. I'm a bit concerned that they seem to want to stretch it out for 7 seasons. They keep talking about 7 years of tribulations. That seems like a lot with this plot.
