I was a bit worried about this season of FotC after last week's episode (a bit too high concept I thought). However, the whole "cup" sequence has made me fall in love all over again.
Premium Cable: The Cursing Costs Extra
[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
The "West Side Story" parody on FotC was PRICELESS! Loved it!
My friend Calamity Jon Morris is a freakin' genius: Deadwood Valentines.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! So hysterically funny!
That is fabulous.
I think my favourite has to be the final one.
That's brilliant.
Flight of the Conchords: I think I broke something laughing during the "Too many dicks on the dancefloor" number.
Michael Gondry did a hell of job with this one. That last number was visually stunning.
Big Love is #1 on Ent. Weekly's "Must List!" Whoot! [link] 1. BIG LOVE Big news: For its subtle writing and peerless acting (we're pulling for you come Emmy time, Grace Zabriskie!), Love is renewed for a fourth season on HBO. If it could also find a place in your hearts and on your DVR that'd be right nice too.
[link] I've only seen 4 eps from this season, but I agree with the LA Times! The ten-episode third season of Big Love, which launched Sunday, Jan. 18, has inspired critical raves. The Los Angeles Times observed, "If there's a better written, better acted, more originally conceived show on television, I defy you to name it." The Wall Street Journal called Big Love "a work of art: luminous, and often moving beyond all understanding," while Time hailed it as "TV's best acted ensemble drama."
Hmm. Ausiello says, [link] Question: Since I'm being good and not throwing a fit about Ask Ausiello moving to Thursdays, can you give up some Big Love scoop? -- Linda Ausiello: I'm hereby ordering all Emmy voters to watch the Feb. 22 episode. It finds the entire Henrickson clan embarking on a 2,500 mile road trip and it easily ranks as the finest hour of television all season. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll want to throw a parade in honor of Jeanne Tripplehorn, Chloe Sevigny and Ginnifer Goodwin.
then he leads to something happening; then has another column about that. Don't link to this if you don't want to think about changes: [link]
This is interesting! [link]
• The Hollis clan is based on an actual homicidal Mormon cult of the ’70s; several of the sister-wives are still at large and wanted by the FBI. Also, according to Mark Olsen, they will tell the story of Hollis Green’s freaky-deaky and seemingly transgender wife: “We’ll find out who she is.”
People still around? I only just found this thread!
