Californication remains excellent up to the very end.

It's found its way into my top three shows of all time (and the only one not involving spaceships).

What are the other two?
BSG?

There is a new Guardians of the Galaxy cartoon. It's somewhat based on the movie, definitely takes a lot of cues from it, but I gather it is not considered part of the MCU.

It's pretty great though. It's funny, does the same kind of stuff the movie did with music (some of the same music), and has some decent action in it. Only 5 episodes in so far, but I recommend it.

Dave's screenshot implies that he has me on ignore.

So I can freely call him a vegetable loving doody-face and he'll never read it.

You could, but it'd be very mean of you. Although I'd probably not read it either.

I hate american comics, but i love that girl. Now what?

The Marvel/ABC stuff has all left me cold, but Daredevil from Marvel/Netflix was fucking fantastic, so I hope this is similarly good.

Do you also hate all films, books, music and TV programmes from particular countries?

Anyone who hates 'Saga' is dead inside.

Saga from The Bridge? She's amusing but not 'likeable' as such, I think.

No, the comic book.

I also happen to hate all Finnish beers, Spanish chocolates and German shepherds.

Is that ok, or are you also going to be offended by that?

Is it just the same as the pilot ?

(I thought the pilot was okay but nothing special)

Yes it is the same as the pilot (possible subtle changes but I scanned through and saw none).

I still love Fox Mulder so so so much.

I do not understand the love for the ginger gnome, though.

Sorry, I know she has her fans on this board.

She almost ruined Hannibal for me. Get... To... The... End... Of...the...sentence...already.

It was painful. Every scene with her was like watching the asthmatic kid in Malcolm In The Middle deliver long passages of dialogue. I think she was asleep.

It's a generational thing i suppose. Most guys between 30 and 35 must have had a crush on her at some point.

Perhaps. I guess it depends on how much influence she had on the depiction of the role. Unfortunately I find her irritating in most things she is in: I think it's because her pronunciation and diction seem increasingly forced in everything she is in. And OH MY GOD HOW COULD SHE NOT SEE THE GOVERNMENT ALIEN CONSPURACY THAT WAS RIGHT HNDER HER NOSE her acting just doesn't engage me.

I've actually never heard of anyone having s crush on her before this forum. I think you are all weird.

I was working on a roadshow she was involved in. She was dull and conceited and had so much make-up on that she looked like she was made of mud. Perfect figure, though. I bet she was really pretty without all of the make up, but she looked almost grotesque with it on (and it was an outside event, so no lighting or cameras to soften the effect)
