    Well I guess HBO has been good but FX is on point now.

    I just watched the first episode of Lights Out. It looks pretty good.

    If you watch any crime or medical dramas then you should just go kill yourself now. Or 24. All fake as shit and stupid as hell and the same thing over and over. rape semen,, yada yada

    HBO, Showtime, FX, and AMC are where pretty much all the shows worth watching are.

    Wish they had kept Terriers around - or done anything to promote it while it still was.  It was probably one of the best 5 shows on TV and nobody watched it.

    I'm old enough to remember when cable TV was sold COMMERCIAL FREE!!! Many stations were commercial free (Bravo,ESPN, MTV, HBO, SHOWTIME, etc.).

    They no longer are.  Even HBO and SHOWTIME speed up the credits to split their screen for an ad on an upcoming show; or they have their logo bug down in the bottom corner during the entire program.  Just a shame how far off they are from what was originally sold to us as "cable TV."  Now they get their revenues from two sources instead of one.  SYNERGY is what I think they call it.

    What happened to the thread about Lights Out????

    Anyone else see Bas Rutten in there for a cameo. Dude looks like he is still in MMA. Look up his history with Urlacher on youtube.

    i agree.  my wuife watches law and order, csi, 24 and stuff like that.  it's painful.  take a look at what amc has to offer.  it's the best network in my opinion.  it doesn't get any better than mad men.  breaking bad is up there too and maybe better viewing for degenerates.
