Finally caught up on Vikings. I really enjoyed it. Hannibal will be next for me.

I can't get into GoT. I have watched a slew of episodes with my friend, and I am just not interested.

Just keep going. Like someone said earlier, it doesn't disapoint you just have to keep pushing through until you're hooked.

I didn't read the books and love it. I like what the guy from grantland is doing this year though as it seems their bringing in even more characters than before. There is a 6 minute spoof cliff notes with the directors of the show that's pretty good, check HBO on demand for it

yea im not saying you have to read the books to like it. but im not sure i would have liked it if i hadnt. it isnt always action packed and without some of the background information i had from the books and the knowledge that it would get better, its possible i could have quit watching.

Yeah, me either and it might be my favorite drama of all-time. But I can see how the brutality and sci-fi elements aren't for everyone.

I've thought about starting the books, but I prefer to be surprised by what happens on HBO. All the complaints about the last book prevent me from investing the time. If he ends the books satisfactorily enough, seems like there will be enough new info to make them worth reading.

Anyone still watch Bates Motel? Second season has gotten good. Although they "killed" off the only hot character in Bradley.

Just finished East Bound & Down. Wasn't sure where they were going with the finale, but I don't mind the way it ended.

Yeah, she was pretty hot.
The girl that he is hooking up with now isnt bad. She reminds me of Neve Campbell in the movie Wild Things.
Also killed off that teacher who was wanting norma.

the mom can be not bad looking, but they "mothered" her up a bit more this season and doesnt look quite as good.

PRetty good show so far. Will be intereting where it all leads.


Americans is pretty good on FX as well. Some hot women on there...good nudity as well. Nice full body naked shot from behing a week or two ago of I think that Russell chick.

True, but I felt like they pushed the envelope even for FX. Back-to-back weeks they had extended "full back" shots of the women...not talking just a few seconds.

This season of Americans has slipped quite a bit, seems to lack a direction and focus.

PRobably so. I havent watched The Americans religiously, but it seems when I do there is usually a good scene. Probably like Nip/Tuck was...they got to the point that nudity was their last effort to keep the show relevant.
The problem with it on N/T was they showed too much of male's asses which may be fine if you are IWP, but for the us normal folks it just made ya flip the channel!

If anyone wants a QUICK binge watch show, check out Rectify on Netflix. Only 6 episodes, but a great character drama.

About a convicted murderer on death row who is freed by DNA evidence.

What about "normal" women? You are a huge fan of female nudity on TV, so why shouldn't ladies get to see naked males, too? Seems fair, no?
