I finished The Wire...and damn that was an awesome show

Next on my binge watching list after I finish Dexter.

You want it to be one way. But it's the other way.

Stop watching Dexter after the Trinity Killer. I promise you'll thank me.

Amazon just unveiled their new pilots. Not sure how I didn't hear about this, but one of them is "The Man in the High Castle". A classic and awesome Philip K Dick book about an alternate history if Japan and Germany won World War II. I can't wait to check out this show.

That is such a good book.

I'm bummed out that, despite announcing it'd go ahead, Amazon didn't do "The After" (actually, is that what it was called? My memory is awful). Fun-looking show, I thought. I really didn't like the pilot to "Transparent", but I suppose Amazon aren't exactly regretting the decision to go with one over the other.

Trinity (Lithgow) was season 4. It was good through then. Definetly watch through Season 4. Season 4 was my favorite. I can understand watching 5 because of how season 4 ends. But after that, stop. It falls off badly.

The first season of "Dexter" is solid all the way through. The second season of "Dexter" is solid right up to the cop-out ending. The third season is OK. The fourth season with Lithgow is pretty good. All subsequent seasons of "Dexter" should be wiped from the earth like the Romans with Carthage.

Although the Colin Hanks season and the ending are so delightfully terrible they offer a different kind of entertainment.

I didn't like season 2. Wasn't a big Doakes fan and I ha-ted Lyla and the girlfriend. Can't remember her name now. I thought season 7 with Deb finding out was actually pretty good.
