Justified is becoming a massive chore to finish. It peaked in S2 with the Bennetts, but by S4, it's basically just a less cheap-looking Walker, Texas Ranger, where Raylen's trading punches with bad guys that miss by six inches. That whole Elmore Leonard feel is long gone. Huge disappointment.

Good news for me! I forgot about Modern Family because I got caught up watching King of the Hill and only just remembered, as Season 4 is wrapping up. This means I now have like ten episodes to catch up on.

 

Watched the first couple last night.. The "Godfather" ending (I think episode 12?) with Phil and Luke was spectacular.

Apparently HBO have given Mike Judge money to make something for them. Feeble lack of details, I know, but frankly whatever he's doing will probably be great.

 

Awesome! I wonder if it will be animated.

 

It's a live action, single camera comedy about Zuckerberg-style computer types in Silicon Valley.

That's how I felt during season 3, I didn't bother with season 4 after the first episode yet I was reading comments online it was the best season yet, can anyone verify this?

I can verify that it's not.

Judge really is great, Beavis and Butthead, King of The Hill, Office Space, Abstract etc wouldn't mind him having a go at live action series as nothing will top King of the Hill in the animated stakes for me.
