Game of Thrones S3E6: If you've ever wanted to hate Joffrey and Littlefinger (and to a lesser extent, Melisandre) just a bit more, this is the episode for you.

On the upside, I found a new way to describe myself: Swordswallower.

Touch season finale was so good, and ended on a wonderful note. Enough of a loose end to start a season 3 with, but also enough closure that it wouldn't be aggravating if there was no season 3. I really like when seasons end on such a note.

after a rocky start this season of Community has been pretty damn great. Some of the most unique and interesting episodes for a comedy show ever. The whole idea that they accidentally created an "evil timeline" that's trying to destroy them is incredible .

I finished the fourth season of Modern Family yesterday. I still haven't seen 1-3 because they're not available on Hulu or Netflix, so season 4 was where I started. Honestly, I can see why this show is praised, but I hate how the writers try to ram some things down the viewers' throats.

The ending "morals" do get tiresome no matter what show.  But they usually try to flub it off with someone dropping a dumb line or zinger at the end.  But I still get amazed by some of that show's quick wit, jokes that are completely and awesomely "out there".

And Community's ending was ok, but not a good way to end a "beloved series".  I'm glad they added another season, hopefully it shapes up a bit better. THe middle of the fourth season was probably the strongest though.  I definitely think they need to write of Chang or something... he's become a sort of tiresome nuisance to the episodes he's in and has no real direction.

Anyways, New Girl is done its second season.  Great show, the final three episodes were awesome.  The finale also showed a pretty well placed cameo from Taylor Swift (who got some lines that definitely poke a bit of fun at the singer).  Schmidt was on his A-game, Nick was a lot of fun, but despite having what's the least amount of screen time, Winston is my favorite this time.
Prostitute: "Are you a virgin?"
Winsotn: "Only my penis, baby, only my penis."

Is New Girl that good?  I was going to watch it when it started but somehow forgot about it.  Zooey is really pretty.

I could have sworn they were on Netflix.  Maybe they took them down at some point. 

I love the show. I have always been a sucker for anything remotely close to a sitcom as I grew up with shows like Saved by the Bell, Family Matters, Fresh Prince, etc., etc.  What parts are you referring to as far as ramming things down viewers throats?  Jokes?  I'm fairly certain I know what you mean and I think I feel the same way, but I'm curious if you could elaborate.

I was talking about the homosexual thing. I don't really care that they're homosexuals even if I disagree with their lifestyle, but the way the characters are written, it's like writers are trying to bash in my skull "these two guys are homosexual." Yes, I got the picture when I first saw them in episode one of season four where they were living together and had an adopted Vietnamese daughter. Now can you stop doing that for the next 21 episodes? Oh, no. Well, that sucks.

The writers don't do it nearly as badly with Jay and Gloria. "Jay is an old white man who is insensitive since he has white privilege and Gloria's fucking hot with a thick accent."

My main fault with the show is that they portray the homosexual as "GAY GAY GAY GAY" instead of normal people like they do in the other two families. Yes, I understand homosexuality isn't exactly "normal" seeing as a small percentage of people are actually gay, but they're people, not circus freaks.

[Starmongoose]

Perhaps they over do the stereotypical gay thing because they don't actually show the actual gay things about them. They aren't physically intimate and they aren't shown as having a sex life like the other couples, Phil and Claire and Jay and Gloria.

New Girl is solid. Lots of fun.

I'll check it out Yodes. Hopefully season 1 is on netflix.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I figured you would mention that or that they sometimes try too hard to set up jokes that it comes off as unnatural.  They do portray Cam as overly flamboyant, but Starmongoose is probably right as they really don't do any of the normal things he mentioned.  They didn't even kiss for awhile, which was something they got flak for.

Cam's a great character though.  Probably my favorite.

I hate to break it to you but it was announced a week or two ago that the show was cancelled and there would be no season 3.

That Doctor Who finale!!!!
