I'm a big fan of FX shows (Rescue Me, Always Sunny, Damages)....
But I thought this sucked. It felt like a low rent, white trash version of everything Sopranos tried to do.

Maybe I am easily amused, but I have actually enjoyed this show.

I've enjoyed it from the beginning, and finally just got caught up to all the episodes I had on my Tivo. I really dig the characters and actors. The guy playing Jax? I swear he would be the perfect Green Arrow.

I may have to catch up. I have the whole season on my DVR but haven't watched a single one. I totally dig Ron Perlman and I love me some Katey Sagal.

Wow. I just caught up a bit on Hulu (as much as I could, anyway). This show is awesome.

Hulu keeps only recent episodes, so I've only seen the first two and the last several. I'll need to Netflix the full season when it's out on DVD so I can see what I missed.

Ya. I'm torrenting it to take to my parents overseas. So good.

Pika? I'm pretty sure you can get the whole season on Hulu. Having just looked, I see they only have 5 episodes on there. What the fuck? They have all 3 seasons of Arrested Development.

I just watched the whole season off my DVR in 3 days. Great show and a good successor to The Shield of which it is an offspring.
Great cast. Great writing. If you are a fan of Shakespeare at all it operates on another level as well. Love it.

Technically wouldn't that be Trailer Park Boys?

When I watched the first episode, I thought, man this is just not for me, it's too, too, gritty. But then I watched the second episode and was hooked. Yes, it's gritty but it's also some of the finest acting/directing/writing in television.
Looking forward to the second season.

If you like Sons, Green Street Hooligans is a movie starring the main character from Sons as a British soccer football hooligan. Oh and Elijah Woods. It's a good (not great) movie, worth a watch just to see Charlie Hunnam with his native English accent.

They picked up where they left off. Good.
But they amped up the soundtrack over the voices. Guitar.

Tuesday night this happened to come on the telly and it was the first time I've seen it. Now I want to go back and watch season 1. Both the writing and the acting were very well done.

For a while there, it looked like they were going to sweep Clay's misdeeds under the carpet for a season. But now I like where this is headed.

Most of the episode was good, I didn't like how it ended though.

I love the show but there is just one theme that kind of strikes me as unbelievable.

Just started watching this, but I like that it's so fast-moving that they can open and close multiple mini-plotlines every episode. It's a good fit with the rather huge cast.
