TV Thread - beware, [expletive] can get spoilery

[thrill]

Has anyone ever seen Top Gear? They did a 60 minutes thing on it Sunday, looked like my kind of show, found out Comcast has back issues for free, watched a couple of episodes Maybe the best show every aired. That is my kind of TV right there.

One of my favorite shows. The History Channel is producing an American version which is going to suck. I don't know why they'd make an American version when the original is so damn good. Just syndicate it, fools.

Just recently started recording Top Gear (haven't watched yet) and Just Reservations (thought it was great). Half of the appeal is the personalities on Top Gear, so I agree an American version will probably fall flat.

Does anyone watch Fringe? I'm interested, but want to know if I can just tune in or if I have to start back a ways.

Ditto to the love for Top Gear. Fantastic show, but to be honest I almost always skip the interview and often lots of the in-studio stuff.

Tonight's Modern Family and Criminal Minds were both solid efforts. Between those and Survivor, Wednesday might be my favorite TV night.

I really like Fringe, but it's odd enough that you almost have to watch it from the beginning to fully understand what's going on. Each episode is definitely independent, but it is one of the few shows on right now that really has a series arc, where a chunk of each episode is devoted to advancing the overall series plot.

Yeah I really like it too. It's nice watching a sci-fi show with a continuing series arc that isn't as complicated or obsessive as LOST and not as heavy as Battlestar Galactica. I enjoy it.

I like Fringe too. I like the long story arc going on, but I also liked the Freak episodes last year. Those efforts reminded me how much X Files rocked.

Always Sunny is just killing it this season.

The scene with Sweet Dee being represented by an ostrich I just about died laughing.

That killed me. Best episode of the season, by far.
