Have you tried restarting your computer? Perhaps testing to see if it works in the bathtub?

TV Shows That Stayed On Too Long
shrader replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in Off the Wall Archives
It really was a perfect episode to end on. Scrubs managed to boot theirs in the same exact way. -
TV Shows That Stayed On Too Long
shrader replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I have no issue with where South Park is today, but I kind of wish they ended it a few years ago with that season finale where Stan became ridiculously cynical and the Marsh's moved away. That would have been a great way to awkwardly end the show when no one expected it. -
It's definitely troubling. The talking heads lately seem to be mentioning growth, but I don't think that's what I've seen. There was a slight surge followed up by complete and utter collapse. Sure some are young, but there are others who can't use that excuse anymore and those are the guys where you start to wonder if they're able to carry the weight of all of this.

TV Shows That Stayed On Too Long

I absolutely loved the bait and switch they pulled to start off this season. It's really the only thing I remember though. The seasons are far too short with too much time in between. I realize that's the best they can do with their schedules, but nothing about that format leads to memorability. -
It's kind of odd to focus on the 3rd round of any given draft though. I'll take your word that he was rated highly but fell. But anyway, at that stage in the draft, every single team passed on him a couple times. Hell, even Tampa passed on him 3 times and has nothing to show for the three players they did take. If they thought he was going to be what he looks like he could be now, they're not waiting to make that pick.

Disagreement in general does not mean that you have no respect for that person or that you think they have no right to express said opinion.

That's why these streaming services are so great. I can see how someone would have fallen off of Breaking Bad if they had to watch that on a weekly basis. That pilot was balls to the wall, but then it slowed significantly for the character development episodes. Getting to watch all that development in one sitting as opposed to stretching it out over a month or two? Sign me up. That's how I watched the show since I only had basic cable when it originally aired. Better Call Saul is good, but with how long it's drawn out, I really wish I had just waited for the entire series to be finished before watching it.

And here's to hoping that some of that passion finally pays off next year. I hate saying it in February, but it is going to be a very interesting offseason. Botterill has at least shown that he's not afraid to make actual deals that go beyond just prospect swaps or discount bin shopping in order to build his team.

So would that make all of Better Call Saul a part of his dream too due to the few Omaha scenes? edit: Oh, and the funniest online theory I've seen about Breaking Bad is that Walt's meth caused the Walking Dead. It's a funny thought and apparently they've actually thrown a few easter eggs into the show to play with that idea. Lately I've been throwing on an episode or two of Cheers while I wind down my gym workout on a treadmill. It's a great way to add on an extra 30 minutes or so without even realizing it.

Sadly the guy you'd learn the most from (X Benedict) left a couple years ago. They've lost too many people like that. But anyway, back to the original question. If you're looking for a little more depth and more topics, obviously they'll have that at the hockey-focused board. If nothing else, I'd say give it a shot and see what you think. And an added bonus for trying that out, it might give you a slight break from John and plenz's slap fights in here.

I think that usually the people who get pounced on by the group tend to deserve it. But yes, a few people get far too emotionally involved all while posting way too much. If you can weed through that, it's still valuable. If someone is able to wade through the Bills side here (note: I can't), they can easily get through that place.

The Walking Dead and the Whisperers
shrader replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I really don't have any complaints about yesterday. The only thing that bugged me was Connie roaming through the corn field with no sound playing seemed a bit hokey to me. Yeah, we all know she's deaf, but it didn't really seem necessary. -
Jussie Smallette (Alleged) Self Inflicted Hoax Assault

Well, from this answer, I can be happy in knowing I will continue to be completely unaware of who he is and what he's doing. -
The Walking Dead and the Whisperers

On that note, I think they revealed Alpha a bit too early. A little bit of a cloud of mystery around their big bad leader could have gone a long way. -

But are they jobs that anyone would even care about? Seeing as how most of us had no clue who he was anyway, I can't help but wonder if those jobs would be any different than what he had already.
