Game of Thrones was pretty good, although americans tend to treat nudity too much like fan service and that always detracts when they try to actually tell a serious story...

Just saw one of the CSI episodes where Katee Sackhoff plays a cop ... :drool:

Man! I love Katee ... she is so hot I wanna worship the ground she walks on ...

Running through Star Trek TNG right now ... Just entered season 3. I hope Amazon can keep up with my watching pace and send me the next one before I'm finished.

A faithful adaptation so far, they did a good job introducing the locations and countless characters, my girlfriend had no problem keeping up (she didn't read the books... yet). I will need some time to get used to some of the actors, but that always happens when I watch a TV adaptation. Sean Bean plays Ned Stark perfectly. The HD picture was simply beautiful.

Can't wait for next week.
I'm loving it. I had a few difficulties in the first episode, trying to figure out who's who, and I will occasionally get lost when they mention names unfamiliar to me. I'm now looking forward to reading the books.

It's not one of those shows that's impossible to follow unless you've read the books, is it`

Put off reading the books (a friend is a giant fan and kept telling me to) after i heard they're making the show and it seems fine so far (even if i'm pretty sure i'm missing a lot of references). Of course knowledge of the War of the Roses (and other medieval-ish court intrigue stuff) might be helping me...

Just watching The Good Guys with one of my fave actors (Bradley Whitford) in a very unusual role as a rough, hard-talking old-school cop. Joshua Malina popped by; they used to play together in The West Wing.

Making fun of Sean Bean or something? Woulda been funny if it hadn't been for the fact that it was he who said "one does not simply" in LotR.

Watched The Walking Dead season 1 this weekend. Not bad, not bad at all. Hope they keep later seasons short too (1 was 6 episodes), as I have a very short attention span.

It's about what would happen if the Yorks and Lancasters had magic and dire wolves... and had Borgia's as family members.

You guys are sure behind on good TV...

Otherwise don't worry, it's based on a comic, and even bi-monthly ones don;t come out often enough for them to be able to have a lot more episodes per seasons and not run out of material after 3 seasons.
