Just crushed Season 4 of Breaking Bad in 3 days.

WTF?! That is some seriously gripping television. Walt's deformed morality, anti-hero role is tough to swallow... and Gus... dude, a box cutter? I still don't fully understand that move at all. I am assuming it had to do with "don't ever try to cook in my lab without permission... you're [expletive] with my money and you're disposable..." but still, damn.

F (ting) U (ting) C (ting) Okay, we get it, that's enough.

"The Tudors" went on well past the point where Henry had the leg injury that started him getting fat. It went right through all six marriages. And they chose not to make him fat for TV.

Have not watched any of Season 5 Breaking Bad yet. Trying to decide if I'm going to save these episodes for the hiatus and watch straight through without another break.

That's what I'm doing. Screw the shared viewing community, I want an uninterrupted binge.

Considering all of the other historical liberties they took, not having Jonathan Rhys Meyers gain weight or wear a fat suit is minor.

Well, yes. But it had hot naked women relatively frequently, which kept me tuning in.

Are you seeing these promos for New Normal during the Olympics? I wish I could have written the copy. 'If you like ABC's Modern Family you'll love our shameless ripoff.'

Does it have a Hispanic woman with spectacular breasts?

The last five minutes of "St. Elsewhere" prove that almost all of American television is one character's dream.
