You guys know me, if I watch more Entourage, will I like it? because I can't decide from disc one.

disc one, season one? i didn't start loving any of the characters besides E until the second season.

So far, yeah, I'm there. Although Johnny Drama clutching at fame is kind of amusing.

I watched the first two episodes of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency yesterday and found it quite charming. It feels very much like the books, so far.

HOLY EFF. I finally got around to watching the last/just-aired season of Big Love. I'm sorry that they killed off the person whom they killed off, and I hope that she or he comes back in flashbacks. It certainly amps things up and sets Bill and Alby up for interesting interactions next season. Also, Mary Kay Place rocks.

eta I know if it's a he or she so it's a whitefonted not-completely-a-spoiler.

Oh, Erika - don't you love Ari?

::is sad::

I love the hell out of Entourage. But that's partly because of Ari, and partly because OMG E/Vince is for the win, and partly because I find Johnny hilarious (and touching) and the Johnny-and-Turtle dynamic cracks me up.

It's kind of like Twelfth Night, only with less malice and more swearing. Well, okay, and less cross-dressing. But just as much gay love.

Yeah, I do. I'm going to watch it some more and see if I think it gets better.

I don't think much actually happens, at least on the seasons I've seen. It just keeps on being a bunch of guys who hang out together. And Ari Gold is love. I kind of like that, though - that there really isn't much going on, other than the boys all loving one another, and messing around, and Ari being Ari. It's fluff, but it's very likeable fluff. With Ari.

So it's not like Will and Grace, with the banter and the punchlines and stuff...because if it was that, I thought maybe I was episode one bored...in that way(and only in that way, maybe, although Hank Hill's got buddies, too,) it might be like King of The Hill, because a surprising amount of KOTH synopses would read "Hank gets embarrassed when..." but it's funny because Hank Hill is totally repressed and strong emotions make him uncomfortable. So, the writers just love dropping him into new fads/subcultures and watching him squirm. And I do know how to say "krav maga" now because Sarah Silverman has it with Mrs. Ari.

In the course of discussing the current structure for television threads, it was suggested to modify the slugs (and sometimes headers) for TV bucket threads to more adequately represent what is discussed in each one. The idea behind this revision is to make it clearer when looking at the list of thread titles which shows are discussed where.

This (non-inclusive) listing would not be to restrict what can be discussed in a given thread, but rather to give an idea as to which 3-5 shows are likely to be dominant in that thread at that time. They would be updated every 4 months or so to reflect the changing network/cable seasons.

The decision as to which shows belong in the current slug will be based on bullshit consensus within each thread. When the call goes out (like now!), please discuss in-thread and then post any update or change in Bureaucracy so that the stompies can update the slug.

The proposed slug for Premium Cable is: Discussions of HBO and Showtime original programming including, but not limited to ?, ?, and ?. [NAFDA]
Please revise and fill in relevant titles for the upcoming months and post the update in Bureaucracy.

Currently, the header for Premium Cable is: A thread for the discussion of all HBO and Showtime original programming. [NAFDA]
If this needs to be changed, please post an update in Bureaucracy.
