So OJ: Made in America is just lights out, outstanding. Every part is riveting. It's the definitive look at the man, the trail, and LA in the 1990s.

And Part 5... ? :shock:

Bonkers. Just completely bonkers. You can't make shit like that up.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Still kind of amazed by that episode.



Probably one of only a handful of good uses of shaky cam.

My wife and I are watching Judge Judy right now. The first case is all about a guy who owes money to former landlords. He insists that he paid in full in cash every month and that they never gave him any receipts. It was pretty boring for about ten minutes, and then Judge Judy asked why they'd kick him out if he had paid in full; the guys yells out, "Because they caught me smoking crystal meth with their son!" Things just got interesting.

The opening to the first episode of Luther S3 is one of the scariest things I've ever seen on tv. Holy fuuuuuuuck.

Outcast

Not sure about this one after 4 episodes. It's doesn't seem to have anything going for it.

Rewatching Scrubs S1. Not really funny (the supporting cast hadn't found their rhythms yet) or emotionally deep, but there was always something about this show that made it better than other 'young professionals go through life' comedies.

I'm watching the 30 for 30 OJ documentary too, I got is on dvr when ESPN2 ran it in full a couple Sundays ago. The first two parts down with three tonight and four probably Friday. It has been really good and well worth the watch.
I kinda regret missing out on the FX miniseries this spring.

Im thinking about rewatching this soon now that Ive burned through 30 Rock. And I agree. The only other show that seemed to do the Sappy/Funny thing as well was Parks and Rec. Scrubs went a bit too sappy at times, but overall. It really became a top notch show to me with the 6th sense Brendan Frasier episode.
