Seems a bit ridiculous. He really is fecking dreadful, ruins the show for me at times.
Generally most scenes with Jason are hilarious, but yeah that was great. I loved the weird and ridiculous dreams him and his bird has when they did the V
Recommend a new show?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss three 1-1 draws.
The first got us knocked out of the FA Cup, the next puts us in a good position in our Round of 16 Europa League game, and the latest was an actual decent performance against Arsenal at Old Trafford.
All hopes for the season now rest on the Europa League - does Amorim have the squad to win it?

I need something new people, along the lines of 30 Rock, It's Always Sunny and Arrested Development.
Thoroughly enjoyed Entourage, liked Curb Your Enthusiasm but didn't watch much of it, and can't be bothered to revisit just yet.
Also loved,
Dexter
The Shield
The Wire
OZ
Lost
Sopranos
Peep Show
The Office - Both
And I'm watching Damages, and a bit of Southland. What am I missing though? I need a new comedy show, but as good as the stuff I've been watching.
It's Always Sunny reminds my best show though.

Ahh, you've basically seen all that I'd have recommended and seen myself ..
I know it's a bit old, but what about Extras?! Thought it was alright myself, plus you know you can never go wrong with the likes of Gervais and Merchant.
Scrubs?
The Sarah Silverman show (if you don't find her too annoying) can be pretty funny at times.
Have you watched 'The Thick if It'? That's been the best comedy show I've seen in years.
A lot of people have raved about Eastbound & Down, but it's fairly mediocre, unless you like all those Will Ferrell movies about sportsman on the downward spiral.
I'm trying to watch Arrested development now but my DVD player won't work, is it any good?
Have you watched Flight of the Conchords? I'd recommend giving IT Crowd a go too.
I'd probably say it's the best sitcom ever made, along with The Office (UK),
It's utter genius really.
Saw the first ep of Mad Men. Bit boring if you ask me. Is it one of those shows which start of slow?
It's a slow show, there isn't any action, it is about the charachters and the backdrop of the period of history they are in. I would imagine it wouldn't be to everyone's tastes but I would definitely give it a few more episodes to see if it grows on you.
Hmm I've got no problem with slow, I loved the Wire and that was a pretty slow show. The whole 50s thing doesnt really appeal to me though.
Will watch a couple of more eps, unfair to judge a show on one episode.
Finished watching Firefly last night. I'm a bit puzzled why this was cancelled tbh, it's a really damn good tv series (only 14 episodes). I was reading up on wikipedia that they aired the episodes out of sequence, which just pinpoints how idiotic fox really are.
They've wasted a chance to make a damn good show, which is a real shame as the show improved episode by episode. The character development was interesting and the dialogue is very witty and humourous in places. The quality on blueray is impressive I must say, sound has real depth and is balanced correctly (I've watched some films where the dialogue has been too quiet and therefore rthe action too loud). Picture quality is average, serenity seemed to have more detail and better use of colours.
I strongly recommend you watch this show, will be watching it again in a few weeks.
Yeah Firefly was a brilliant show with 14 outstanding episodes. Fox made a complete tits up of it. If it had been shown on a channel like Sci Fi instead it probably would've done much better.
I've been watching a show called Chuck recently. It's not outstanding or anything, but it has a good (and ridiculous) plot line and is very funny in parts, and the 2 main women are absolutely smokin'
Certainly worth a watch if bored.
Oh, and Adam Baldwin from Firefly is in it!

Anybody seen The Testees? Any good? Some guy was telling me it was the funniest show hes ever seen. I know it got cancelled but that tells me little since Arrested Development got cancelled also and happens to be brilliant.
I am currently deciding between True Blood and Twin Peaks (yeah, I still somehow managed not to watch this). What would you choose?
Season 2 is a bit poodles. But the first Season is fantastic. I remember getting pretty freaked out watching the entire first season in one night (maybe it was the cherry pie).
Anyone seen anything worth watching recently? It would have to have been released in the last year or so for me to have missed it. Ideally a comedy but if there's a good drama that's passed me by I'd like to hear about it.
Chicago Code is not new (its from 2010), its already busted but it was a phenomenal show.
i am onto episode 5 of Homeland. It is outstanding
Parks and Recreation - Gave a chance but it didn't really grow on me.
Archer - Love it
Archer - Love it
That too. I'm really interested in the original israeli one.
The first season was a bit average, but from the middle of the second season it has evolved into the best comedy show currently on air at the moment.
I rate Community more, but its still great.
The League isn't that bad.
I like Community too but it can be a real cheesefest at times. And there's not a single character in it who's even fit to lace the boots of Ron Swanson.
Community is just about good enough for me to bother watching, although I feel like it has probably run its course now. In fact I thought that when they had a two-part episode involving a paint-ball war.
Suits is also good.
I'd again recommend Chicago Code, it starts good, but not great, but by the 6-7 episodes it really shifts into top gear and the final few episodes are absolutely perfect.
Not exactly comedy, but Person of Interest is one of the best new series I've seen last few years. It had the highest rated pilot in a very long time for CBS and doesn't disappoint later on season 1.
I watch Chicago Code and enjoy it, but it is a bit cringe at times.
"I've heard that the Wu-Tang Clan ain't nothing to feck with..."
Agree with those recommending Homeland too, been watching it over the past week, seven episodes in.. Very, very good.
The 4-parter 'Putin, Russia and The West' is fecking excellent so far (for all you current affairs buffs).
For comedy I would definitely recommend Parks and Rec above all else. It's genius TV.
As mentioned above, Suits is very good, light hearted drama with witty dialogue and hot women. Can't really go wrong on it.

Are Bones or One tree hill any good?
Just got them from a friend, wondering if they're worth watching.

Indeed. When's it coming back? Summer I assume?
Yeah early Summer. 16 episodes this season too!
Just started watching Homeland on the Caf's recommendation and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. The lead (I forget his name) also starred in my favourite ever drama; the Forsyte Saga, he's a fantastic actor.
