I haven't watched it in quite some time, but I remember enjoying Family Guy....

I’ve never seen a single frame of Family Guy. I know there’s a character named Stewie on it, but that’s it.

Disappointing second half of the season.

Don't say that - I'm 4 episodes in and still thinking it's good fun

I thought the first 4 seasons of Family Guy were great, but it did take a lot of wind out of their sails when the formula got stale. It’s funny enough to have been going as long as it has, but I’m also in the camp of American Dad > Family Guy

Breaking Bad re-watch. On season 2.

Also The Detectorists. Quite the dichotomy with Breaking Bad, but such a wonderful little show.

Season 2 of breaking bad stood out when I did my first rewatch. Just the sheer amount of big events that take place between the Junkyard and the plane crash is staggering.

Yeah...The Beneke and Saul stuff started earlier than I realized also.

I'm rewatching Game of Thrones. I forgot how annoying Daenerys is.

I swear that I’ve seen footage from the episode 2 story with the 2 old guys sitting in their living room jacuzzi with their heads barely above water. I don’t know if it’s a Déjà vu or if they were really on some other form of media before
There’s a lady in episode 5 with some very distracting white hairs coming out of a mole on her face

I didn't know there was a Cops episode of X-Files. Pretty good, though it doesn't really go anywhere.

It was unfortunately followed up by a video game episode, and it was as cringe and out-of-touch as you'd imagine. So so bad.

There's only one episode left but I feel comfortable calling the Scrubs reboot a success. I think it's been great. The two most recent episodes have been tremendous.

We’ve not watched the latest episode yet, but I strongly agree. They’ve captured all the old magic.

I haven't watched reality tv, save hate watches of random Real World challenge episodes, but been binging Traitors. Annoying af editing, but pretty fun. At least there's not dumb*ss relationship drama.

I like this one a lot too. Very real parenting portrayals. Elle Fanning’s performance is wonderful. Offerman truly enters in ep 3 and is great so far.
