Rita sucked...so if you think her getting killed off ruins the show, you should probably just stop.

I just didn't like it b/c they were building Dexter up to be a family man, and then ... poof. Nope. Single dad.

IMO no. It goes steadily downhill to the end.

Watched about seven episodes of Banshee over the weekend. Almost done with season one. Jesus what a violent show. Also, do any of the women on this show have boobs larger than a B-cup?

Dexter is incapable of being human. No matter how hard he tries to be normal he can't.

Never watched Breaking Bad until now...through 9 episodes of season 2 (finished season 1 last month). Love it so far.

Things are so disturbingly awkward between Kai and Rebecca.

I was going to say how many more episodes until she blows him.

Just wait. It is one of the rare shows that gets better every season.

Started House of Cards on Tuesday. Halfway through season 1. It's pretty good.

I enjoy watching HoC but find it incredibly hard to follow. It seems like they're constantly plugging people in and out of the series so it's hard to register names with faces.

It can't be any worse than Game of Thrones. They add new people and families every week. It's 10 times tougher in the books.

I agree with this to an extent. I typically remember the faces and names, but don't always remember what they did in the past. I have actually gone back and read about them when needed.

I was having a similar problem with True Detective, so I read some quick notes so I could understand everything 100%.

Anyone watch Black Sails? My buddy said it was pretty good. I'll probably give it a shot, since it's only a few episodes in.

Honestly I don't know. For whatever reason, I never started it. And I watch A LOT of tv shows. Very unlike me to miss a tv show let alone a really good/popular one.

I do, and it's good. Nothing spectacular, but definitely has
my attention the last few episodes of season 1.

I have no problems remembering faces and what they did, it's names I've always been horrible at (especially with GoT the names aren't exactly simple, common names we are familiar with).
