Last weeks South Park which involved Stan's dad buying Blockbuster was pretty damn funny!

I thought last night's Ben and Kate and The Mindy Project were both the best episodes of each respectively.

I'm hoping they save that for future seasons. Too much going on in the plot if they go after it now.


Good point. I could see the season finale having some big invading army come from the west/south and then it ending with a cliffhanger until next season.

Lots of opportunities for future shows/seasons.

I'm going to try and watch those tonight, but Ben and Kate has been great and I've at least remained interested in The Mindy Project.

Looks that way. I'm really interested to see how Randall stacks up in all of this. It seems like maybe the group of inventors hid the pendants from him (maybe after they disagreed on how their invention was to be used?).

I also heard that after the Nov 26 episode, the series would go on a hiatus until the end of March. Not really sure how I feel about that, because Revolution is definitely attracting viewers.

Production/holiday hiatus. It had to. Like heroes nbc doesn't give full seasons to new shows so they don't have enough done to make it through the season so they have to take breaks to get ahead on episodes.

Makes sense. I'll still be watching in March.

I'm fading big time on Revolution. Still watching, but I'm starting to lean more towards hate-watching than anything else.

They really need to hurry up and get finished with the "let's find Danny" storyline and move into something that is actually interesting. They are giving us glimpses of the overall mythology behind the show, and it's got promise, but there is only so much I can take of Charlie alternating between being optimistic and believing in people to callous and prepared for the harsh world she's grown up in.

A rumor I've seen in the AV Club comment sections says NBC is worried that the only reason this show has the ratings it does is because it follows The Voice, and if they brought it back without that as the lead-in viewers wouldn't come back.

I'm still in, and I don't watch The Voice, so I would find that curious if it were the case.

My biggest issue is how the show makes me get so much amusement out of an eighteen-year-old girl getting punched in the face.

I never really got into the show, but I heard that there will be an airing of a roundtable that the cast of 'Firefly' did at Comic-Con. It's supposed to air Sunday at 10pm on the Science channel.

I loved Firefly, and I didn't find it until after I had already seen Serenity (the movie).

Just for the record, the next time SG or Pedro say something I disagree with and I get overly bitchy, I'm blaming it on sympathy PMS.

OK, I can't wait for the end of the episode for this. The group is leading rebels into Philadelphia using the old subway tunnels under the city. An explosion causes the tunnel to collapse behind them, but they are still in a large, long tunnel.

HOW IN THE HELL ARE THEY RUNNING OUT OF AIR!

Gotta tough it out. Revolution is our last great hope at decent new tv this season. Last Resort didn't even get to their midseason finale before it got cancelled, and it was a great freakin show that drew almost 10m viewers. Still baffled.

Oh, I'm still in. And I'm willing to suppress my disbelief to a point--especially when the whole series premise makes no sense anyway. However, that's a bit too much.

Yeah I think it was a silly way of getting characters to own up to thoughts they may be keeping secret or repressed.

Damn, Charlie almost died. Got excited for a minute there *rimshot*

I forgot that there was one more episode next week. Thank goodness, though this actually would have been a decent end-point.

Went on a bit of a TV rampage in the last month, having watched every episode of Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, and Homeland in the last 3 weeks or so. My eyes are feeling just a bit fatigued.
