I take it Streets is gone too? 

[Fan]

Perhaps.

Jason just showed up in the middle of season three, out of nowhere. Kind of random, but nice to see him, I suppose. I feel like this is them writing him out though, what with this whole house thing. Do they ever even mention Santiago again? I mean, for fucks sake, Buddy adopted him and now he's just gone? That irks me. And Matt and Julie look to be getting back together, which feels my heart with joy juice. I have a feeling that this is Tyra's last season, and I'm going to miss her. Oh man, this show is fucking with me, man!

Sorry to go off topic here in the FNL thread, but the best thing I watched this week was the season two finale of The Mentalist. For the most part, I'll admit the series is fairly weak. Simon Baker and his charismatic Patrick Jayne character carry the show, because the supporting cast and the majority of weekly plots (which rarely have a satisfying explanation) are nothing to tune in for. But when they dip back into the main story arc involving serial killer Red John, they invariably knock it out of the park and remind me why I became a fan. This return to form was no different.

How dare you derail the FNL thread!

I am in the fourth season now... I don't know how I feel about it, but I've only seen two episodes so far.

How dare you derail the FNL thread!

I'd do it again!

Right now!

Actually this has been a pretty nondescript week for TV amongst the shows I watch, so I'll just throw a shout out for Magic Numbers, the "new" light entertainment show on Saturday nights. It's heavily based on Talking Telephone Numbers, which was hosted by Phillip Schofield many moons ago as part of the BBC's National Lottery line-up. This time Stephen Mulhern takes the reigns on ITV1, and it's the best show of its kind in some time. Not amazing, but something I now make a point of watching.

For anyone that cares, I have like six more episodes until I'm all caught up on Friday Night Lights. The second and third seasons were hit and miss, but by that time I was so invested in the characters that I didn't care about a little slip in quality. I've decided to wait a few weeks before finishing it up, because once it's done, I'm going to have nothing to watch!

What do you think thus far?

I just caught a classic re-run of Merry Christmas Mr Bean. It's probably my favorite Mr Bean episode ever, partly due to this scene:

I've been on Tumblr too much, I immediately tried to 'like' that post of yours above Heady.

[The Headliner]

You can 'like' it on Facebook here.

[El Jackal]

And it has been done.. not been on Facebook as much as Tumblr recently though, Tumblr is more interesting.

Is anyone watching Entourage this season? Or ever? I haven't started this season, am a bit nervous to since last year was so shaky.

[Purple Marauder]

I don't have HBO. I buy the TrueBlood DVDs but that about all I see from that channel.

[The Gopher]

Oh, True Blood has been delightfully tasty this season. Way better than last year!
