Almost finished with The Terror, really great series! Hope it doesn't fall apart in the final couple of episodes

It's been really good so far.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I watched the Trinity season of Dexter again.

Final episode still gave me chills.

Too bad the show went to shit from this point forward.

Final season of New Girl is off to a great start. First two episodes have been pretty spot on.

I'm digging the Roseanne reboot, too. It's funny reading all the comments on AV Club, people are getting so riled up about her politics and how they think it's seeping into the show too much. I don't necessarily agree, I just think it's still really funny so I'll continue to watch it.

I'm also finally getting around to Parks & Recreation after my friend has bugged me about it for a couple of years. Season one was meh, but luckily it's only 6 episodes. The season finale showed some promise, and season 2 is immediately better so I might stick this out.

First episode of The Terror was also interesting so I'll continue on with it :)

Last episode was a bit weak.

Showing Tuunbaq in that much detail may have been a mistake, unless I am msiremembering how the book ended

The first episode was a bit wonky but found it's legs by the end. That second episode, though? Holy shit. I was laughing like a complete idiot the entire time. There was about a four or five minute run where I know I missed stuff because I couldn't stop laughing. It'll probably go down as one of my all time favorite episodes of the series.

It was a great character episode that reminded me so much why I love the cast dynamic on that show.

Just finished The Terror last night. I was happy with how it ended - couldn't really see it going any other way.

Started Season 3 of The Path......not 100% if I'm going to bother seeing this through

Just watched a back to back Leave It To Beaver. The 2nd one was money. Ward lectures Beave about being nicer and more considerate to people. Then, Ward and June go out and before you know it, a BUM is knocking on the back door, asking for a glass of water. He ultimately takes advantage of the Beave and ends up taking a bath and stealing one of Ward's suits before sneaking out as Wally comes home. Wally and the Beave go looking for him, but can't find him. They come home to Ward and June rifling through their bathroom trying to figure out what happened. Then, Ward lectures the Beave again, explaining the fine line between being considerate and helpful, but not being taken advantage of.

I should have been watching Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown a long time ago. Now I can’t stop. The Congo and Jerusalem episodes were particularly great.

So good! It's a fantastic show. By far the best iteration of Bourdain yet.
