I watched the show before I knew it was based on books but few months ago I started to read the first book (haven't had the chance to read anything besides study materials ever since) and I guess I'm glad I already knew what all characters look like. anyway, recently I spotted the other four books in a bookstore and I think I'll make an exception and buy them (I rarely buy fiction books as I just read them once and then put away, so what's the point of that?)... winter's the coolest season for reading books.

plus, if one's worrying about the language... well, um, practice makes perfect, right? reading books is one of the best ways how to improve your knowledge in any language.

Suffering Tudors or True Blood? Because True Blood is awesome. It's dumb fun, but it's awesome dumb fun.

True Blood. I don't even think it's dumb fun. It's just dumb.

How much have you watched? Because you're of the same mindset I had... before I watched the show. It's entertaining. I'm over vampires. But I won't get sick of over the top gore, over the top sex, or awesomely cheesy acting anytime either.

The first season was very meh, but it does get better, especially the third season.

But still Supernatural > Dexter(at least so far)

I really can't say I like one more than the other since they are both completely different stories. I think they're both amazing series.

You were right, both series are incredible, I can't tell which one I like more.

Watching Dexter S4 now.

Good taste with american comedies

Bored to death is another series that I watched recently and was quite impressed, just finished the 3rd season. Great to see ted danson back after becker. Apart from that I watched the 2nd season of Modern Family.

I started watching Bored to death, but after 3 episodes, I just didn't find it that funny. Maybe it's one of those shows that grow on you.

Yep I think it is. I watched the first episode and I didn't really think it was that great, never really bothered with it after that. Recently I was at a friends place and he was watching the 3rd season and since I had nothing else to do I watched it as well, since then I was hooked. Maybe not the most straight up comedies, but they're very subtle with the jokes

I don't mind subtle jokes. I love arrested development, and it's quite subtle. I think I just didn't like the characters.

Ah, I think you've gotta dig the characters for this one. George and Ray are brilliant characters in my opinion. But yeah its not as good as arrested development.

Dexter is one of my favorite series, can't wait to see the new episode!! Besides getting into The Sopranos I started watching Freaks and Geeks, it's a little bit old and it only has one season but it's quite good, plus the music is great. If you want to entertain a bit check it out

Been watching community. Great show, but looks like its getting cancelled. Fucking networks. Oh well. I watched the pilot of Grimm the other day. It's alright, looks like it has potential. It wasn't a great pilot, but after seeing how shit Fringe's Pilot was, anything's possible.

I've seen Community, only 1st season. I saw Season 2 a little bit and then it gets boring. Too predictable.

The only thing predictable about Community is that there is going to be SOME schtick/meta concept to craft an episode around. often it's very esoteric. show might be too weird at times for it's own good.

it's not getting banned... haha. might get canceled, but not banned. NBC as a network in general is just a sucking chest wound. i think 48 metalstormers at random could do a better job filling up a prime time schedule.

How is community too predictable? It's a play on sitcom stereotypes, and you never know whether the episode is going to be normal or batshit insane. Did you predict they'd do an episode in stop motion? Or have one of the funniest games of D&D ever? What about including zombies? No? Get back to me when you've seen a bit more.

Oh well. It comes third on my list of best modern sitcoms, beaten only by 30 rock and Arrested Development. The second season is amazing.

Yeah each to their own actually. You seen any British sitcoms? Blackadder, Father Ted, Only Fools And Horses? They're amazing.
