rockNrollaDIM Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Anybody watching this? It's been suggested to me for a while now from some friends and co-workers. I tried before but couldn't get into it, but this week In finally got past the first couple episodes and now I'm nearing the end of season 1 and pretty hooked.It's kind of a disgusting, grimy, dirty show and but it's like a car crash you can't look away from and really entertaining.

JackO Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I saw like half the first season then lost showtime and forgot about it once i got showtime again. I hear it is good too but gotta take the plunge and watch it like I did with Arher season 1 and 2 last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted January 24, 2013 Author Share Posted January 24, 2013 It's definitely a "take the plunge" kind of show, like Breaking Bad. I hated it at first. But now I've grown to like it and am invested in all the characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockNrollaDIM Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Finished catching up last night. I hate when you marathon a show like this and then are forced to wait for new episodes to get your fix. I can't be the only one who thinks they nearly butchered part of Fiona's character in the latest episode. She would never do something so stupid and reckless financially like she just did. Not a big fan of Steve/Jimmy; I was hoping he would stay written off the show when he left after season 1 and I especially agree now. At least in Season 1 he was somewhat likable, when he returned from Brazil last season it was like he was a completely different character. His personality has changed. Frank has been reaching some new lows lately. I know that everyone on the Internets is complaining about his convincing Carl that he has cancer but I actually think what he's doing with Himey is even more fucked up. Get that kid his shots and stop getting him drunk/high!! Do we need to use spoiler tags in the TV forum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Gary Scott Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I agree about fiona shes usually all about whats best for the kids and not selfish like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Great, crazy insane episode last night. There was so much going on all at once... literally every character had a storyline, yet somehow the only one that felt a bit slighted was the Veronica-Kevin in vitro thing (WTF?! lmao). I felt the worst for Debbie, that little actor is damn talented. And Jimmy just sucks. He's probably the worst character on the show. Now with the kids in state custody the next episode should be interesting, I wonder how long that will last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanboy Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 This is like, my favourite show ever. I liked season one slightly more than season two, though. I hope season three holds up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockNrollaDIM Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) This show deserves more love around here. It is so good. Funny and heartbreaking at the same time. Last week was my favorite episode ever, but this week kept the ante up.. Veronica/Kevin/Carol but also I'm gonna go ahead and guess that both Carol and Veronica end up pregnant. The Ian/Mickey storyline is probably the most interesting on the show at the moment and what happened in this past episode is seriously depraved. Not sure where they go from there. I'm guessing Mickey takes it out on Ian. Edited February 26, 2013 by Silver Linings aDIM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Gary Scott Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Felt so bad for Fiona. And i had no idea where Frank was going to stash his urine never thought about his mouth. Carl was the mvp of the episode and usually i dont like him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 This show is so great. Frank is hysterical. Anything for a buck! Jimmy needs to exit this show. He is such a bitch and has been since Season 2. And Joan Cusack deserves an Emmy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Gary Scott Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I really can't stand Karen I think she is a horrible person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted April 1, 2013 Author Share Posted April 1, 2013 Great episode; what are the odds Jimmy's actually dead? Fiona can be really clueless when it comes to him though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorWho Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Neah, I don't think the writers have the balls to kill him...or at least I hope so, I like the guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 I love this show so much. They left nearly every character with a cliff-hanger, I don't wanna wait until next January. The way it was written, any one of these characters could have been written off the show: -Karen, Jody, Himey (Arizona)-Sheila (Karen connection is gone; and at the end of the episode Debbie told her she needs to make adult friends --- really hope she's still featured because Joan Cusak is incredible in the role and she's one of the most interesting characters)-Jimmy (WOOHOO! Is he dead? I'm guessing shipped off to South America or something. No way he's dead, but hopefully he's off the show for at least half a season)-Ian (I'm sure he'll still be featured but now that he's in the military he probably won't be back in Chicago much unless he gets booted out)-Mickey (if Ian's not around, he's not around)-LIP (got into MIT and he's an idiot if he doesn't go; again like Ian I'm sure they'll show his journey at college but it certainly changes the dynamic of the show)-Mandy (same as Mickey and Ian; no Lip, no Mandy) Man the possibilties are endless!
