Got to be careful. There were times when I was binge-watching The Wire and Breaking Bad that they really started to mess with my head.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.

I want to say that any frustration I've had over the past couple seasons in continuing to watch How I Met Your Mother were completely justified after "Lilly comin'!"

It seems that the critical consensus is just the opposite, but I have only watched GoT. I plan on watching Homeland soon.

I tend to go the other way from the critics.
Love both Walking Dead and Game of Thrones, watched the first couple episodes of Homeland and it just never really got me to buy in. I've heard many people really like it, just didn't quite get there for me.

Right, right. Well I can't blame her for wanting to smack the dude that brought the chick from Twilight into the world.

And to complete the annoying film series cycle, Bass' whole family died going to see Harry Potter. No wonder he always looks about ten seconds from dying from an aneurysm.Right, right. Well I can't blame her for wanting to smack the dude that brought the chick from Twilight into the world.

I think it's in pretty good shape looking at the long play. They should be done with character development now, and you'll see other militias and republics get involved soon. Like the war with Georgia they alluded to last episode.
Was the most watched new show, but then again, Last Resort averaged over 9m viewers and they cancelled it, so you never know with these stupid networks. I like the potential here, but they gotta up things after the break, can't let it get boring stretching things out.

TWD > GoT > Homeland for me.
This is the same ranking I would go with.
I expected to enjoy Homeland more than I do. Not that I don't like the show, but I just find myself rolling my eyes far too often for me to rank it any higher.
TWD, on the other hand, has far exceeded my expectations, though it is certainly not for everyone. Its one of those shows that sticks to what works, and doesn't try to do too much.

What!? Last Resort got cancelled? Damn, I really liked that show. I think it got screwed because of its bad time slot (Thurs at 8).
In terms of Revolution, how in the hell do you not leave with the pendent!? My lord, right when Myles and her left I thought, "Yeah, she didn't grab the pendent..." Regardless, in the previews for the spring, it looks like the crew finds another one in order to go head-to-head with Monroe.
I'm really hoping to see other parts of the former U.S. Hopefully seeing how the Georgia Federation is made up.
