I love the idea of Don starting somewhere new. And I love Peggy's arch. I just thought the scene with Roger and Peggy in the old office and her roller skating around were terrific.

Every season of Mad Men seems boring to me until that season is over and I can re-watch it and understand where it all was going. Maybe it's my impatience, I don't know.

Visually, it's still the most beautiful show. I just want to paint every scene.

If they end Mad Men with Don being D.B. Cooper, I will throw my tv out the window because I never need to watch anything else.

That would be awesome. I missed it last night. Will catch up at lunch.

Started watching Daredevil. Surprised by the brutality of it. It's interesting for sure.

Is anyone talking about the Wet Hot American Summer prequel and if not, why the hell not?

No response on Montage of Heck either? I'm hesitant to watch it. Nirvana rules IMO, but man, anything of the unreleased stuff that's come out since has been awful. I think I heard about unreleased Cobain album(s?) coming out and I can't imagine anything I'd rather do less.

Except eat at Arcade Fire's restaurant.

Stick is awesome. Always one of my favorite characters

I also like they didn't trot out Bullseye or Elektra yet
they are thinking the long game

Can one show have more cliff hangers than Nashville?

I would listen to the Kurt album before watching the upcoming docudrama, Soaked in Bleach.

(I will probably do both though, and watch Montage of Heck)

I'm a little surprised so much stuff is coming out on Kurt now
it's been 21 years since he left this mortal coil
you'd think at least ten years ago people would have cashed in on some of this stuff?

Kosmo also approves of The Bridge, I think.

The Killing is a really frustrating show. It does alot of things "right" as far as cinematography and decent acting but the show is horrifically paced. They take a story that was originally done in 10 episodes in Denmark or wherever and flush it out to 2 12-episode seasons by turning the entire thing into a huge stream of non-sequitor red herrings EVERY EPISODE and then finally cap the entire thing off with an out-of-left field new ending that strains credulity to say the least. I recall internet rage from alot of places towards the first season finale. By the end of season 2, I literally did not care who killed Rosie.

I have yet to start the Bridge. But I did start the Killing, and have enjoyed it so far (I am about 8 episodes deep right now). By the way, they have four seasons now (13, 13, 10, and 6 episodes each).

Outlander has quite possibly one of the most evil sadistic characters on TV in Black Jack Randall

I actually thought season 4 was the best. Very compact, no red-herring bullshittery.
