I can't recommend breaking bad enough, the show is simply PHENOMENAL.

MFisH · Negus

ive heard good things, about that show. i cant get into a show when im like 3 or 4 seasons back tho. i just started true blood, half way through season 1 and its ok. mainly watching it to keep the gf happy. another show i like was modern family, that show was funny as hell, i need to watch season 2.

Jpoo · Guru

Modern Family is hysterical..... I refuse to watch True Blood, this coming from the guy who eats Sci-Fi **** for lunch...... Get the DVDs its worth your time. No one is as bad ass as Walter White. Seasons are short too. First season is 8 eps, the rest r 13 n the fourth season just started. Thats only 46 episodes to watch to get caught up to this season, like i said DO IT NOW, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!?!!?

haha thats funny. if i was in college i could pull that off, basically how i get caught up with the wire. but idk if i have time to bag out 46 1 hour episodes any time soon haha

Jpoo · Guru

Well, next season of Breaking Bad is gonna be the last one. So start now to get ready for next summer, 50ish episodes over 365 days is pretty doable id say

theres too many to make a top-5 so ill try to hit on you guys shows.

boardwalk empire

1. premise- f'ing awesome. instead of slangin herion theyre slangin alcohol (when it used to be illegal) in atlantic city

2. the cast - perfect collection of gangsters. from steve busemi (a sleeper pick) to michael pitt (reminds me of a young leo decaprio) to michael williams (omar from the wire) they nailed it

3. volume- a twelve 1-hour episode pilot season? eastbound and down had 6. thats a lot of killing/drinking and cussing.

game of thrones

Ive seen them all and they were really good, but its not my cup of tea. about as good as a show about the renissance period can get.

breaking bad

also an awesome premise about a father with a terminal illness who sells herione to support his son. have seen a bunch of the newer ones but not all of them.

entourage

i think im lower on entourage than anyone of my roomates. its just the same thing over and over again. vince is worried about his acting career, e is doing his best to make sure he gets parts, ari is constantly worried and turtle is a pothead who cant keep a business going. there never seems to be a problem for more than 1 episode on the show. last season ended with vince geting arrested for coke and this seasons everythings fine. somehow they are still making enough money to do cool ****, but the storyline of the show as a whole sucks honestly. i watch it more for the girls, cars, and cameos than the plot.

modern family

hilarious.

Curb your enthusasim

also hilarious. my only beef with curb is that i feel like im watching seinfeld, and larry david is seinfeld . the banter and punchlines and even material sometime is almost identical to seinfeld. not a bad thing because seinfeild is a funny show, but its very simliar. fish you listed that on your top-5 but ive never seen you watch an episode haha

real world road rules challange

guilty pleasure. good moments but can be hard to watch at times. far from my top-5

fringe

watched the first season in 2008 but lost interest when it went beyond the fringe of science (the original premise) and dove directly into sci-fi

jersey shore

Pauly d is the man. if he was to leave the show, I would no longer watch. i cant wait to watch ron and sam fight and situation act like a douchebag all season! /sarcasm

personally, I would put first 48, pawn stars, man vs food and locked up abroad in my top-10. also its always sunny in philadelphia is in my top-5 for comedies. theyre not high budget shows but i find them extremly entertaining. as for sports shows, PTI is #1 in my book. the 30 for 30s are always good but thats a mini-series not a tv program. nfl total access > nfl live all day.

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

*********CLAPS EVERYWHERE**********

Amazing analysis Nick. I agree with pretty much everything. The new Curb season definetly is the funniest ever, material seems new, and to see Larry David and his buddy Funkhouser try to be single on the dating scene. Hilarious.

Jpoo · Guru

Hey Funk man!

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

Take out Entourage and RW/RR Challenges, and thats a good list.

6ixty · Young Money

Locked Up Abroad is definetly a cool show, but nowhere close to my top 10. There is only so much re-enactment I can take for a single show, and its all that.

Very similiar to I Shouldn't Be Alive, some of their storys are NUUUTS!

Jpoo · Guru

Top 10 EVER no particular order:

Lost
Wire
Oz
Breaking Bad
Dexter
Sopranos
Fringe
Always Sunny in Philly
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Twin Peaks

I don't think I could make an all-time list, I would lose my mind.

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

Nick, by the way.....

HOW CAN YOU LEAVE OUT THE ORIGINAL JACKASS AND BAM MARGERAS VIVA LA BAM!!!!!! Forever will be my all-time favorites.

6ixty · Young Money

1. wire
2. LOST
3. Jackass

fo-sho

6ixty · Young Money

i forgot how to make it in america. thats easily in my top 10

6ixty · Young Money

Im 2 episodes deep in to the first season of breaking bad and im totally hooked. in the first 2 hours:

dude discovers he has terminal cancer
after going on a police ride along decides he wants to sell meth to cover his retarted kids expenses after hes gone
links up with a known meth dealrer
cooks up the best meth (hes a chemistry teacher) the drug dealers have ever seen in the back of an RV
gets caught for had being on the police ride along by the drug dealers
kills one and kidnaps the other drug dealer who attack him for being a snitch
is holding one hostage in his basement trying to figure out how to kill him while he plans to chemically desinegrate the dead one

good stuff for 2 short hours

Jpoo · Guru

Nick, it only gets crazier.

Jpoo · Guru

Abercrombie & Fitch has offered to pay cast members from MTV's popular show "Jersey Shore" to stop wearing its clothes, it said in a news release late Tuesday.

The company is "deeply concerned" that Michael "The Situation" Sorrentino "could cause significant damage" to the brand's "aspirational nature."

THATS AWESOME...

i heard about this, pretty funny and pretty sweet deal if u ask me. i would love to get paid to not wear a certain logo.

as for tonight, CHOOOO CHOOOOOOO!! The CT TRAIN IS COMING TONIGHT!

MFisH · Negus

how does nobody bring up the fact that last nights episode was GREAT! probbaly the best since season 1. we had good paulie d one liners, we had another great catch line with "TWINNING." there was lesbianic action, robberies, double robberies, the itailan getting CBed and then sneaking out late night, and finally some nice drama at the end which will lead to an epic ronnie vs situation fight which we have been waiting years to see!

MFisH · Negus

from bill simmons mailbag:

Q: Now that this season of The Challenge is coming to an end I want to get your take. Seeing as how the "Frenemies" premise came from your mailbag, were you satisfied with how the "Rivals" season played out? Seems we underestimated how much these people need the money because, like you, I figured this season would have had at least 1 homicide. Do we need to re-evaluate how we think of these people, or just introduce more steroids to the mix?
— Mike C., Rice Lake, WI

SG: I thoroughly enjoyed the season and believed — in all seriousness, without a hint of facetiousness — that this week's Challenge with Tyler/Johnny and CT/Adam was the single most dramatic sports moment since the Women's World Cup final. (When CT's team lost, I actually screamed in disbelief. Stunning. That might supplant Whitey Bulger's getting caught as the biggest M*******-related upset of the 21st century.) In general, I liked how some pairings grew closer and other pairings grew further apart; I thought that totally worked. It kept me interested. My biggest gripe: Challenges and eliminations dominate so much of the show (and have become so athletically complex) that it chews away from the partying/fighting/ball-busting/hijinks time. So if we really want this show to become the fifth major professional sport, then they need to start at 9 p.m. with a 10-minute pregame show, expand every episode to 90 minutes (to show more hanging in the house), then follow it with a 20-minute after show from 10:40 to 11. It should be a two-hour block every Wednesday.

6ixty · Young Money

a man after your heart fish

MFisH · Negus

i think robs new show is on tonight on mtv. i think its called tosh 2.0

MFisH · Negus

well rivals is coming to an end tonight. a great show with a very disapointing ending once CT was eliminated. hopefully we get to laugh at dbag wes struggling the whole time after how much he pumped him self up as "a greek god".

my guesses for winners:

guys: johnny and tyler

reason why: based off the previews of wes throwing up/crying like a girl/ getting carried by kenny i doubt they make that comeback and win. unless superman, batman, or CT is the one carrying another member of the team u are not making that comeback for the victory. that leaves mike and leroy. i just dont think 150lb dork mike is going to be able to beat out johnny and tyler who literally train for this, while mike was called in as a replacment at the last minute.

girls: jenn and mandi

reason why: on the aftershow mandi came in with fake boobs. that means they came in either 1st or 2nd place because these ppl only get paid 4k for being on the show. not 4k an episode, 4k total! so unless mandi worked hard after the show ended and saved up a lot of money, she needs to either be in 1st or 2nd place to pay for those new boobies.

6ixty · Young Money

i wouldnt base anything off the previews. in fact its usually the opposite of what the previews show. you would have thought based on the preview for last week that CT killed johnny and tyler. with tyler having food poisoining i think theyre actually gonna come last. im torn between wes and kenny and leroy and mike. i want leroy and mike to win sooo bad but i really think the fact that they concentrated so much on wes struggling in the preview means they will pull it off

girls- who gives a ****

the better question is how high we gettin for it?

MFisH · Negus

high enough that we dont remember who won!

seriously, i might be looking for a new job soon so im not gonna b able to smoke for awhile after this weekend so lets do it up!

6ixty · Young Money

you dont have to quit your job to get more free time from lauren just chill with your boys after work instead.

im jp but why are you looking for a new job? how does she feel about that?

MFisH · Negus

ha, she wont care, shes been wanted to quit for months but shes too lazy to do anything about it. this just happened last week where ive had loan after loan that was suppose to close get ****ed up by other ppl and having my customers back out n im tired of it. before it was an 8k check turning into 5-6k but now my 5k checks are turning into 2k. i really want to do something like what iom doing now only at a big name bank like wells fargo or something like that. im gonna give it another few weeks before i start making moves but we'll see

i dont no how i can be so right and so wrong within the same post! i should have realized that blonde bimbo wasnt going to make it through a 2 day marthon hiking challange.

btw, how brutal was that final challenge? just the eating part alone was ****ed up where they basically forced every memeber to eat to the point of throwing up. then they made them IMMEDITATLY hike up a moutain only to find out they have to be tortured by standing on a rock the entire night getting an hour of sleep at a time. that was ridicolusly rough.

MFisH · Negus

so i saw rob's new show last night redicolus or some **** like that. its pretty funny, its not really like tosh as much as i thought. i thought it was going to be another verison of tosh, but it really is a cross between AFV and tosh, but more like AFV

Jpoo · Guru

Jesus fish you said tosh like every other word in that run on sentence!

6ixty · Young Money

maybe its because i was so fcuked up, but i watched it when we got home from the bar and i was dyin laughing

MFisH · Negus

I hope you guys were able to watch jersey shore last night, and if u did u noticed Paulie d started a new little game by saying something funny and then going "Guido Problems!" Since Paulie D is funny, most of the things he was saying were funny as well. That lead to deena and snookie's swacking Paulies new game, and turned it into "Meatball Problems!" and doing their game as their own. Unfortunately for the Meatballs, most of their real problems are not funny, and in fact, there actually pretty sad. Here were the ones I noticed just on last nights show:

- Boyfriend flys over 20 hours to see you and leaves after 5 because thats how long he can stand being around you. Meatball Problems!
- In a city known for love and you can only find yourselves to hook up with for the entire month. Meatball Problems!

- Begging your roommate to have sex with you and he would rather bone his best friend from behind. Meatball Problems!

- Will only go into the hot tub with your clothes on because you're too fat to put on a bathing suit. Meatball Problems!

- Can't get help at Alcoholics Anonymous because you can't spell AA in Italian. Meatball Problems!

Did I miss any others?

Jpoo · Guru

This show is still on?

MFisH · Negus

1 more episode. and then 1 more season back to jersey haha
