Fall of '09 television thread

I don't know why I continue to watch entourage besides boredom and availability.

 

That Turtle/Jamie lynn Siegler storyline is of the most embarrassingly awful things I've ever watched. And Sunday nights being especially bad. And the fact that E and Turtle took so many solo story lines this year makes it especially bad. E is an awful character when he's doing anything else besides talking to Ari/helping vince's career.

 

"oh should i be guilty about thinking another girl is hot?" "Come on man it's her last night" "I wanted lunch to be special" god damn what the hell.

I don't mind the show nor the slow developing plot, but Ted does annoy the piss out of me.

 

I like the show and at times have loved the show but its starting to run its course. There are only so many new relationships and first dates you can show Ted going on before it gets really old. And it has gotten old. I still generally like Marshall. Lily, and Barney (although Barney's character is being neutered by his relationship with Robin). But Ted's character is horrible right now and when the main character sucks the show won't be great.

My wife and I almost sprained our eyes watching that episode from rolling our eyes so much.

By the way, Dexter was really good. It's going to be a great season. The addition of John Lithgow and the return of Keith Carradine's character is going to be very, very nice. Lithgow plays a great bad guy.

AGREED

Weak start to the season for How I Met Your Mother. Ted really needs to meet the mother, his storyline is getting old.

I thought last night's episode was hilarious with the doppelganger's... Mexican Marshall, Stripper Lilly, Lesbian Robin.

How old is that photo? You know she's 48 years old.

It's pretty old, I had that up in my dorm room in 2002, and I know it was old then. Sometimes I think I married my wife because she looks a lot like a young JLD.

The Office tonight was one of the best in a long time. The co-manager story arch looks like it should work much, much better than the horrible Michael Scott Paper Company idea last year. I also like when they keep the episode inside of the office.

 

Looks like next week is the wedding. The preview just reminded me of all the classic episodes from season 1-3 ("The Dundies" "Booze Cruise" "Casino Night"). I don't think it will ever get back to being as consistently good as it was then but tonight's episode gave me hope that it won't be as ridiculously over-the-top as it was for much of season 4 and 5.

 

Also, when's Todd Packer coming back? I would pay to see him crash Pam's wedding.

You mustve seen the replay of the Todd Packer bachelor party episode the other day too. God that was classic, as was the wedding...

Flashforward also piqued my interest much more than the premiere episode.

 

I like the show, but some of the cheesy stuff is irritating. Like the guy giving mouth to mouth to the guy who blacked out and his head was in the urinal. The endings are good how they make you pisse you have to wait a week.

LOL I thought that was hilarious. And hey, if that kind of a blackout really did happen, that is definitely a plausible scenario

It just didn't fit in with the mood and the tone of the show, I thought.

 

I'm gonna like the storyline now with the guy that knows the day he is going to be murdered.

Has HIMYM Cast Rachel Bilson as the Maybe Mama?

Today 11:10 AM PDT by Megan Masters

How I Met Your Mother may really, truly, finally be revealing Ted's baby mama—and right now, the likely candidate is one of our absolute faves, Miss Rachel Bilson.

 

A show rep confirms to us that Rachel has been picked for the potentially pivotal part, which ties in perfectly with reports from our best frenemy earlier this week stating the HIMYM 100th-episode celebration is set to be mom-centric. Show runners had been "spending a lot of time trying to cast the female role in Ted's story" for the landmark ep, said Ausiello.

 

So is Rachel's character the real deal? While it seems likely that the adorable starlet is the mama-related lady in question, Bilson's rep tells us that she's only signed on to appear in the one episode.

 

So is this just the next Stella (Sarah Chalke) to our Ted or will Bilson pop up again somewhere down the road as—wait for it!—the actual mother? Fingers crossed!

Whoa there tiger. Horrible Michael Scott Paper company idea? That idea spawned some excellent episodes like cafe disco and bankrupt. Absolutely classic moments like finding out that Michael drinks milk and sugar before work every day. The idea itself may have been far fetched, but the dynamic of the MSPC folks was hilarious.
