Weeds has def got better... Last nights was pretty LOL.

mecka · Post by **mecka** » Mon Oct 19, 2009 10:58 am

season 5 of weeds is very flat imo.

calstro · Post by **calstro** » Mon Oct 19, 2009 11:33 am

Whats the best season? I watched most of S1 but lost interest pretty quick.. just so happened to see last nights and found it much funnier.

mecka · Post by **mecka** » Mon Oct 19, 2009 11:43 am

seasons 2 and 3 really hit a peak if you ask me.

season 4 was shit, season 5 got better towards the end.

Lil MiSbreaks · Post by **Lil MiSbreaks** » Mon Oct 19, 2009 12:28 pm

Watched almost all of Season 5 of the Wire yesterday. Sooo disapointed, nowhere near as awesome as 1 - 4 and a few episodes short too

Did expect more to be honest.

Amick · Post by **Amick** » Mon Oct 19, 2009 12:30 pm

I watched seasons 1-3 of Weeds and in season 3 the story rose to a climatic peak of suspense, I should watch seasons 4 and 5 to see what happens eh? lol.

Great show imo, what a milf.

john safran's new tv show premiere about interacial relationships was good and i think that's all that will be shown after that...

Slight True Blood spoiler alert. If you don't wanna know anything about Season 3 then don't highlight below:

Maybe this is better?

Everyone is LOVING True Blood and next season, writer-director Alan Ball is giving everyone even more juicy story lines to suck on!

The big news for season 3 is the introduction of the much awaited homo-erotic vampire king of Mississippi. Alan sat down for an interview recently and discussed how the show is going to be taking a big, gay leap in the new season:

Were the gay metaphors something you envisioned immediately as you read the books?
Alan Ball: All that is in the books. Also, there are a lot of gay characters in the books as you get further and further into them. We'll be introducing some of those gay characters this new season.

What other gay characters will be introduced in season 3?
We'll be meeting the vampire king of Mississippi and his long, long-term companion — and by long-term I mean really long-term — Talbot. I think Lafayette may meet a love interest, and certainly Pam, who works with Eric, she's certainly got a lesbian vibe — I don't know that that's all she is, but she certainly does seem to appreciate the women.

What do you think it is about the vampire genre that’s so appealing to LGBT fans?
I think it's certainly not a huge step for LGBT people to identify with any group of characters that are, as a group, outsiders, that mainstream society feels threatened by; that are fabulous and powerful and sexy and all of that stuff.

Lesbian vampire queen Sophie-Anne is romantically linked to Sookie’s cousin, Hadley. Is there a possibility that the queen will also fall for Sookie?
I think Sophie-Anne is definitely interested in Sookie; I don't believe it's for sexual or romantic reasons but she is definitely interested in Sookie and whatever it is about Sookie that is special beyond the realm of what is human, and that's something that we definitely will learn more about in the upcoming season.

Denis O’Hare has just been cast as a regular for season 3. His character Russell Edgington, the vampire king of Mississippi, is gay in the books, so is this something we can expect to see in season 3?
I think the kings and queens of the various states are aware of each other, and yes, he definitely knows who she is. Whether or not they end up in a scene together I can't really say; it depends on actors' availability and scheduling and those kinds of things. But they definitely are aware of each other.

why post a spoiler? link imo.

mixtress · Post by **mixtress** » Thu Oct 29, 2009 11:01 am

couldn't link it cause I got it off Perez. Like I said it's barely even a spoiler, just Alan Ball talking a little about what we can expect to see in the 3rd season.

carry on

lol, agree liz. i think they copped some flack about being 'mean' to people and have now gone totally over the top showing how they respond to people cracking the sads

that american chick that just got in needs to be euthansed. so annoying.

also that jason wanker on the panel is such an arrogant tool. i'd love to knock his stupid truckers cap off his head. he sooooo reminds me of someone but it would be rude to say who so i'll keep that to myself lol

Bonnie needs to shut the fuck up with the emotional shit. its embarrassing and awkward, stop it, stop it now!!! i keep cringing watching this show more than the Office.

nyone see the group dance at the end of SYTYCD last night?

we want your soul!

fucking awesome. could have watched it another hundred times. we were trying to figure out the potential ravers who would know the track. coleman has defo done some happy house rave imo

Lizkins · Post by **Lizkins** » Thu Feb 11, 2010 12:14 pm

the one with all the boys? i recorded it and re-watched it cos it was soooo damn good!!

what is with Bonnie and the emotional bullshit. enough already!!!

mrj · Post by **mrj** » Thu Feb 11, 2010 12:25 pm

watched Hungry Beast on ABC1 last night. Great show. And a smart one at that. I sometimes agreed with what they were saying, and sometimes not, but had to be on my guard the whole time because they opinions appeared so well balanced and reasoned that it was hard not to agree with them all the time. I like that.

Downside is someone involved in the show has massive problem with over indulging in moderny graphic design fantasies. Good techniques, but half an hour of the same techniques become a bit much. Helvetica whores tbh.

Very funny too. Their today tonight piss take was classic, and a lot less hammy then some I've seen (although still pretty hammy).

I may be way off the target here, but for some reason I can feel the guiding hand of Peter Berner somewhere in the background of this show.

All in all, current affairs shows in Australia need to be a lot more like this, and a lot less like the sensationalist crap peddled by 7, 9, and 10.

gnat · Post by **gnat** » Thu Feb 11, 2010 2:50 pm

nah liz- was the one with all of them to that we want your soul track. they were dressed as cyborgs. try and find it on youtube- worth a look. it was awesome

mrj- flicked to that show and tbh it was fast forward all over again. had me asking when does uncle arthur come in. totally lame tbh sorry
