RockRaines Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 27, 2011 -> 11:26 PM) So on Shameless, I guess O'Hare looks a lot like Midway Airport these days? Yeah, I was wondering, didnt they just say American Airlines at O'Hare, and then they zoomed in on the very recognizable Midway airport security line, and airport that doesnt even service AA.

Just a guess, but it's probably easier to film at Midway. Since O'Hare is more recognized as Chicago's airport that's what they went with. Only noticeable to us Chicagoans I'm sure.

Between that and the terrible attempts at chicago accents, I feel they should hire me as a consultant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Frank was in the prison in Canada and the crazy guy asked if that was a Chicago accent I was thinking how he could even tell that, Macy definitely does not have a Chicago accent.

Rowand44 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Mar 28, 2011 -> 02:04 AM) I liked it. Still not a fan of how each episode is one singular storyline, and I think Lloyd puts stuffs together WAYY too quickly, but I'm going to keep watching the show. Not as good as I hoped, but I still enjoy it. Ya, I definitely understand that. Like I said, the other 3 episodes have been good but not great to me, I really did love last nights though.

chetkincaid Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 I'm hooked on British tv shows. Hu$tle, Life on Mars, Ashes to Ashes, even Doctor Who. Hu$tle and Life on Mars (the original UK version, not the crappy one on ABC) is a really good show. DCI Gene Hunt is the funniest character on tv.

juddling Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Just saw a ad on USA network for Burn Notice--The fall of Sam Axe. focusing on Sam in South America. April 17th. this could be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I thought Breakout Kings was really good today. I liked the story. Saw the first hour of that new show on AMC, The Killing. Wasn't much of a fan. Is the whole series searching for the killer of the girl? Or is that just the season 1 plot? And I wished they would have picked a good looking lead female at least. lol. The chick they have is not easy on the eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Caught the premiere of The Killing last night. In my opinion, it was one of the best starts to a new show in a long time. I hope it stays this good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox_Sonix Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 The Borgias started off kind of slow last night. Makes sense that they have to set some things up. Still looking forward to the rest of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about this girl? It's a crime drama where the entire season is one case, rather than one case per episode. Like 24 without the hours.

southsider2k5 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Finally got caught up on Breaking Bad. The 2nd to last episode of season 3 was WAY better than the finale. It ought to be interesting to see how they get out of the situation with Gus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSqwert Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Agree on how awesome The Killing was/is. They do a great job with the mood of the show with the dark, rainy settings and I love the character development already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the second episode last night, and I still think it's one of the best shows on TV. And it's easily one of the best new shows in a long time. Very character driven and atmospheric without being slow. It will be interesting to see if they can retain it for the entire season, since the season revolves around one case.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 The 2nd part of premiere of The Killing was better. There are still some things I am a little confused about, but the story is more compelling. Will probably try and catch it next week before Breakout Kings.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Also, The Killing is apparently a very recent remake of a Danish show by the same name. http://mrspeabodyinvestigates.wordpress.co...a-from-denmark/ Description sounds very very similar, and the characters names are pretty close, as well as each of their looks. That series is 20 episodes deep already, so if you want to watch ahead, you can. I read the brief description of the first 3-4 episodes, and it seems the first 2 US episodes cover about the first 4 Danish ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
