Fanfare over at Metafilter is watching Halt and Catch Fire: [link]
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I don't remember seeing The Musketeers discussed anywhere, so I thought I'd try here. I just finally started watching eps from my DVR and it's rather better than I expected. I mostly just thought I'd try it out for the pretty, but it's not half bad (predictable at times, but not bad). Anybody else been sucked in?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm liking it.

Does anybody watch Major Crimes here? Last night's episode, with a bunch of name guests seemed like it was a stealth pilot for a spinoff.

If it was the one with Fritz, not so stealth. They're doing an FBI spinoff for him.

I hadn't known in advance that it was going to be a backdoor pilot, but I figured it out pretty quickly. Subtle, they're not. That said, it seems more promising than any of the other backdoor pilots I've seen recently - I already like Fritz, the stuff with the helicopters and fancy gadgetry was pretty cool, and when the blonde cop gets to be a character instead of a cardboard cutout, I thought she had potential.
edit: Although if it's FBI-specific that would lose the blonde and the gadgets...I still like Fritz?

I recognize the blonde from somewhere, but I couldn't figure out where. Liked the SWAT guys, too.

I haven't watched yet, but was it Andrea from Walking Dead?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The spinoff gets Andrea.
