Re: The Television Show Thread!

Community's return is now scheduled for February 2013 #February7thIsOctober19th

I thought they already said it would come back midseason? Not that surprising.

Re: The Television Show Thread!

Hmmm this is what I got from wiki:

In early October, NBC delayed the premiere of the fourth season, which had been scheduled for October 19, 2012, without announcing a new date.[4] On October 30, 2012, NBC announced that the fourth season will premiere on February 7, 2013.

And it's as accurate as I remember, cos I was expecting October 19th then it was delayed without giving a replacement date. That's when the whole October 19th jokes began... Why can't they cancel something, I'm sure there's plenty of shitty shows on that network, or better yet, just pass it over to another network. Looking at the season 4 news, I didn't realise many other people besides Dan Harmon had left the show:

The end of the third season also marks several other departures including executive producers Neil Goldman and Garrett Donovan, writer/producer Chris McKenna, actor/writer Dino Stamatopoulos, and frequent episode directors and executive producers Anthony and Joe Russo.

Re: The Television Show Thread!

I like Community, but it's been spotty since after the first season. Plus, with that much bloodletting behind the scenes, I wonder why they even keep it around. It has a loyal following I suppose, but when the main creative force has the show taken from him I sort of wonder why NBC is even bothering with it.

Interestingly though, it's being moved back to Thursdays instead of it airing on Fridays, so maybe they're assuming one of their Thursday night comedies will be cancelled? Or maybe will have a short or split season?

Re: The Television Show Thread!

It's one of those shows like Chuck that as a very loyal fanbase that would champion it forever and look beyond the spotty periods of the show. I mean, I'm also unsure what NBC is playing at, causing so much uncertainty. Either just let it go or get it moving already.



What's the thursday schedule like? cos I'm not sure about the lineup...

That's the main comedy night. I forget what else is airing besides The Office and Parks&Rec. Last season of The Office too...went on longer than it should have.

Re: The Television Show Thread!

30 Rock and Up All Night are the other two shows that air Thursday nights, I believe. Like The Office, it's also been announced and heavily advertised that this is 30 Rock's final season, so I doubt it would be affected. I've never seen Up All Night, so I'm not too sure about it. But maybe that could be the one to be moved/cancelled/short-seasoned? I really hope it's not Parks & Rec.

Aha! After a quick wiki search, it seems that Up All Night was originally renewed this season for only 13 episodes, but that 3 more were just added for a total of 16.

Re: The Television Show Thread!

I have been enjoying the funniest show on television. "Abs"...I mean, "Arrow".

It makes me laugh so much. The casting director was must have been thinking. Screw acting talent! It's a superhero show. Lets just find some good lookin' people buy them a leather heavy wardrobe and see what happens. And high comedy is what happened.

I've taken to placing bets on at what point in the episode the main guy will work out with his shirt off, for no reason. It's a game I highly recommend.

It's great!

Re: The Television Show Thread!

Ah Arrows, I know there's a few members and staffers that watch it but I've got gotten into it; but I've heard it's not bad. Right now I'm just making my way through season 4 of Parks and Recs which is my main show with Big Bang, The Mentalist, Happy Endings and to a lesser extent HIMYM making up my lineup.

I've sorta dropped Modern Family, Family Guy, 30 Rock and I can't recall what else I used to watch...

Re: The Television Show Thread!

dexter... I didn't like the second half of the season.
I'm glad it is ending cuz I think they just don't have a good story to tell anymore

 

[Imperium]

Re: The Television Show Thread!

Really? I dont watch it, but I follow the story (my friend spoils it for me) and the second half sounded pretty good.

Spoiler

Especially the doakes stuff near the end and la guerta finally putting it all together. They seem to be setting it up for a big conclusion season. What more could be expected of it?

 

[TheMoa]

Re: The Television Show Thread!

well...

Spoiler

LaGuerta was a bad character, she should be lone gone and I'm glad she is now. I didn't like how the Isaac thing developed, Dexter's relationship and how hre reacted and dealed with things
His plan to finish Laguerta was terrible, she could just show up with back up and he would be screwed.
Hanna breaking out of jail that easily... Michael Scofield bones are hurting on his grave
And the whole Laguerta thing was lame, I mean... she never goes to a crime scene and when she goes she pick something that noone found, even the CSI guys.

Dude I only have three episodes of Merlin left!

And it's impossible to find the last three for instant streaming (they only went up to season 4 on Netflix), so I'm having to download them and it takes foreverrrrrr.

Last one was kinda disappointing - the ultimate Psyren feeling when everything is ruined to rush the ending. Have fun =)))))

 

[Naomi]

Twenty minutes until the last download is complete. I've heard from a few people that the ending is weird. My expectations aren't that high, but we'll see where it goes. I might like it.

Mehhhh. It was okay. I thought that the ending rather fit the rest of the series. I was shocked that so many characters died. Usually every episode involves Merlin spying on someone and seeing something he shouldn't have, a main character gets in trouble and has a near-death experience, and then they end up saying something along the lines of "I don't have a choice" or "you've left me no choice". XD That series is so predictable that it's funny. However, I didn't really expect that very last 30 second snippet. They left a lot of room open for a spin-off/sequel. I won't want to watch it unless Colin Morgan is in it though. *_* Dem ears.

 

[Imperium]

Imo, that show went seriously downhill...Or maybe it was always downhill but I just become less forgiving of it as it goes on. I dunno.

Doubtful, considering the main cast were apparently expressing their dissatisfaction with the direction the plot was heading. But then again I doubt any of them will reach this kind of fame any time soon by any other series so never say never.

There is going to be a Zombieland TV show, this is the cast

 

[xi0]

Oh, I can't wait for it to be cancelled

 

[Crude]

Yeah... the movie was a lot of fun, but I really don't think a TV show was necessary...

 

[Jammin]

I'll give it a chance. As long as they embrace the quirky and funny style of the movie I could imagine watching it.(even though I'm getting pretty tired of zombies)

I'm feeling a little more willing to give new shows a chance though because I'm just starting to try and back into watching a little more TV. It's fun to have shows that come on like that to look forward too. Right now all I'm watching are Grimm, Doctor Who, and Justified.
