The TV thread

They reran the first season of 'Orphan Black' prior to the start of Season 2.
We watched the first episode and did not dig it.

 

I was the same way. I'm now through episode 8. Give it two more episodes and report back.

Good God that woman has a body!!!

 

For my sense of humor, "Surviving Jack" is the funniest thing since "Married With Children."

 

Yeah, I'm intrigued again. Fortunately there's just one more episode. I'll watch and then decide if next season is worth my time.

I'm just not sure where this thing can go and still be interesting without being ridiculous.

 

Just finished the first eight seasons of Scrubs. The finale still remains my favorite.

 

I haven't watched Grey's Anatomy in about five years, but I saw that the actress who plays Dr. Yang is leaving...

I'm sure she'll have lots of luck finding another job making $350K a week.

 

Television history is full of actors and actresses who left hit shows and whose careers went into total failure mode afterwards. Hell, that's practically the entire history of "MASH." But actors get bored with their characters and I don't blame them.

 

I wonder how many instances did an actor/actress leave a hit show and it was a good decision.

Clooney leaving ER.
Heigl leaving Grey's Anatomy. She's not exactly doing well now, but she had enough movies that did well enough to justify the move.

I remember reading that the actress who played the mom on Home Improvement was offered $20 million for a final season on that show and she walked away.

I'm sure there are a lot of them who are bored, but to some extent they should be aware enough that hits like this are rare enough that they should be smart enough to ride that train until it ends.

 

I doubt Sandra Oh is going to be playing the Sheboygan Dinner Theater next week. She's held in pretty high regard.

 

SNL has a ton, but it's a good question.

 

Did Bruce Willis leave Moonlighting for movies or was it cancelled?

 

Cancelled.
