The TV thread

Veep and Silicon Valley are up there with the best hours comedy ever put on TV. Both hilarious and smart and perfectly paired with each other.

 

I haven't seen any of the new Mad Men episodes, so I don't want to go on that thread, but does anyone know if they're viewable online?

 

Mad Men - AMC - Full Episodes

 

My gosh, they killed McDreamy.

 

I'd give Veep that high praise. I watch Silicon Valley faithfully, but it's become quite predictable. There's no way they can recover from the latest catastrophe, and suddenly something beyond the realm happens that gets them back in control. And again. And again.

One pisses off Shonda at their own peril.

 

This looks good.

 

Anyone watching Yahoo Screen's Other Space?
I watched four episodes last night. Not LOL funny, but entertaining.

 

I haven't watched the show in probably 7-8 seasons, but I was pretty stunned when I read that they killed him off. Like you said, one can only presume he pissed her off, because apparently he was under contract for at least 1-2 more seasons. I'm not sure how that all works, does he still get paid for that, or is it all based on how many episodes he appears in?

 

Good question. I don't know.

 

Has anyone kept up with watching the new The Odd Couple? I'm finding I like Thomas Lennon as Felix much better than Matthew Perry as Oscar.

 

The problem is Perry is a natural Felix as an actor, not an Oscar. So you have two Felixes.

 

The fake reality show Barely Famous on VH-1 is pretty decent.
