Commercial I think. Looks like an ESPN2 crawl on the bottom.

Ok. Because it looks like a girl in a plant costume outside of a hotel. A whole lotta "dafuq" going on there....

I recognized Sportscenter, but only because Stuart Scott was looking in two different directions. I thought the top left one was American Idol...

Sorry, the top left TV only does broadcast channels so I flipped to ABC, the other two to ESPNs to get the feel even though one had womens bball and the other sportscenter. It will be much better when wild/regional game/CBS NCAA bball are on together on Friday...eventually the top left will have access to my dish after I figure out my connection issue with the cable from upstairs.

Seeing as how this is a TV thread and I don't really know where else to post it...just got done with the "TV" portion of my living room...just in time for NCAA regional weekend!

Eventually the bottom TV will be bigger...but that will have to wait until after the wedding.

Love this. Looks similar to what we do for January 1st with all of the football games on, as well as the Winter Classic.(minus this year, of course.)

Still thinking through that one. Must've been another train 15 minutes after the one that Shelby/Thompson hears and comments that you don't need a watch in Harlan County (or something to that effect).

This is what I was thinking. I knew something was up when for about 15 minutes of show time they didn't show Shelby or the other marshall chick. I didn't put 2 and 2 together with the train though. That might have been the best episode of Justified to date.

Loved how Merle(poor Merle :() offered the walker a hit off his bottle the other night.

The episode started off horribly, but got better as it went along and wound up with some A+ material.

Sort of a classic TWD episode in that way: the good and the great and the mediocre all in one package.

Just saw last week's "Americans." A little soap-opera-y, but one episode I can deal with. I hope it gets back to good guys/bad guys as the main theme. Too much who's sleeping with who this last episode.

I think it was less about the sex and more about not truly knowing where your loyalties are when you're the spy. The FBI agents angle was about the sex, but the KGB angle was about the fragility of everyone's trust with other spies who are supposed to be allies.

Oh, I got that part. I don't think they needed to slam my face with a sledgehammer, though. ;)
 
Re: TV Thread 9: The Walking Dead Americans are completely Justified to be Psyched

I'm not sure if that's it entirely though. I think the fact that Phillip had sex with another woman is truly hurtful to Elizabeth. They started out as two strangers, thrown together on a job, and expected to have sex with each other to produce children, cause that's what American couples do. And they knew that using sex with others would be a strong tactic to fulfill their goals.

But as the years have passed, they've grown to actually love and care about each other, to be a real family. I'm not sure if she knows he's screwing Martha, but if she does, she can accept that, cause that's part of the job. But screwing his old girlfriend, the past love of his life, went beyond that. Not business, but emotions, feelings. And that hurt her, because of the feelings she's developed for him.

For those of you that enjoy The Americans, the Military Channel has a two hour "Soviet War Scare 1983" that I think is a good compliment to the show and I know it repeats twice on April 4th.

Is this it?

Yes, that is the same one. Good find.

And you can tell Phillip isn't into it, now Martha's old BF is trying to hook up again...I dunno. Just too much love-triangle stuff for one episode, I guess. Kinda took over the whole story.
