The only identical catch suggestions has made for me is catching Doctor Who on BBC America. But the problem is that it doesn't catch every episode of any show, just some. Yesterday it caught three in a row, which was very kind of it, but unexpected.
I seem to recall they were holding a contest for someone who could come up with a better matching algorithm than the one they currently have, so they at least are trying to improve. I don't have any problem with them--but I spend a lot of time perusing my upcoming recordings and the guide, so I haven't missed that much. But it does burn when I do.
Yeah, I ended up just deleting season passes at the end of the season and restarting them from title search next season. I only remember to do this because I have you people.
Mad Men: That was such a tough scene with Peggy's mom. And Peggy's making the right call, and I know she thinks the roomie represents the kind of life she wants to have. But I would go nuts with a roomie like that and Peggy will too. I agree that they may be setting up for Joan & Peggy to room together. But I wish Joan a happier life than she has, and certainly than she will have if circumstances force that situation.
I don't think Joan and Peggy will room together - it's so obvious I can't imagine the show going there.
(I had a confused moment where I thought they had roomed together at some point in the series, and then I realized I was thinking of 3 Women. Oops!)
then I realized I was thinking of 3 Women
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's awesome.
Going back to Sons of Anarchy, here's some good (and shocking) news:
FX's "Sons of Anarchy" came roaring back to record ratings Tuesday night.
The second season premiere hit a series high by a mile, growing 94% (!!!) in the adult demo compared to its first season premiere.
"Sons" was seen by 4.3 million viewers and earned a 2.8 demo rating.
That represents the largest season two premiere gain for any series in FX's history ("The Shield" returned to a 3% increase and "Nip/Tuck" had a 33% gain).
This is great news for FX, a network that's doggedly stuck to its quality shows brand even as its veteran dramas have inevitably sagged and newer efforts have underwhelmed. For those looking to get into "Sons," or who checked out its lackluster pilot and dismissed the rest, here's a recommendation: start with episode seven.
last night's ep was amazing. I can't wait to see what happens.
Gemma
is going to fuck someone's shit UP.
p.s. - how hysterical was the Prospect asking "you weren't serious, were you?"
But I wish Joan a happier life than she has, and certainly than she will have if circumstances force that situation.
There's almost no way that can happen for Joan until she gets a toehold in the coming feminist revolution. Obviously there's no happiness in this impending marriage. There will be fallout from that she'll have to deal with. It'll be a while for Joan.
I don't she'll room with Peggy. They'd drive each other nuts. They respect each other but they really think and operate differently.
Oh, please tell me it's not just a blond thing with Hardison.
Did the names Hilts and Bagley refer to anything in particular?
