saw 6.8 on imdb. pressed x

I watched the pilot and 2nd episode. Kinda what I thought it would be when Kurt Sutter decides to do a medieval TV show: extremely visceral violence and blood.

Beyond that, the plot is only mildly interesting for me so far. I'll keep watching to see how it turns out.

This is definitely no relation to Game of Thrones though.

While I don't watch Dr Who, seems like Jenna coleman leaving is a massive news. At least in england.

Even now there are people who throw pizzas at Walt's roof regularly.

Fandom can be weird at times.

Tomorrows episode [of Rick & Morty] is going to be VERY polarizing. I love it. I'm gonna own it. I love my brother @danharmon

Given how much some of the episodes have already upset people this should be interesting.

EDIT:

Justin Roiland ‏@JustinRoiland 5 minutes ago

To be clear: tomorrow's episode won't be tugging at ANYONES heartstrings. It's 1/2 me drunk rambling nonsense and 1/2 a comedic B story.

So Rixty Minutes 2.0.

by RealGunner Sun Sep 20, 2015 1:31 pm

Drama Supporting Actor- Jonathan Banks (Better Call Saul)
Drama Supporting Actress- Lena Headey (GOT)

Acting like BB got undeserved awards Laughing

Btw how come no one noticed Emilia Clarke getting nominated again Laughing

by El Gunner Sun Sep 20, 2015 9:15 pm

Love how we always laugh at BB and anything related to it nominations rofl

And then M99 comes in and posts something sarcastic
And then BB or anything related to it ends up winning alll the awards and then they are the ones having the last laugh Laughing

by M99 Sun Sep 20, 2015 9:19 pm

Will be dead if Better Call Saul wins. Hope it does, the reactions in this thread will be worth it.

But seriously, Mad Men not winning will be a travesty. Just like if Breaking Bad did not win last year it would have been a travesty.

by urbaNRoots Sun Sep 20, 2015 9:19 pm

I am with M99 though, BB deserved most if not all their awards.

The biggest farce is Miguel Sapochnik not getting nominated for directing the Hardhome episode.

by El Gunner Sun Sep 20, 2015 9:23 pm

Meh True Detective and Matthew McCool's not winning last year were the biggest tragedies ever.

It's GOT department's fault. They are the ones who submit episodes to the Emmys. They nominated episode 6 for directing Laughing

Imagine submitting this

GOT dominates on it's weakest season. Feels like they are making up for lost awards. I feel Lena Headey should have won Best Supporting Actress. Sad that Mad Men could not win, at least Jon Hamm got Best Actor :bow:

Dinklage's reaction to winning Laughing

by Freeza Mon Sep 21, 2015 4:45 am

TV awards

Watched it, such a disgrace every year. And it's impossible to judge anything when you can't possibly watch every show.

Viola Davis winning rofl

smh.. Not even a lead or the best in that category

There's a couple of reasons:

Breaking Bad is finallyoff the air.

The awards are for individual episode submissions and not the season as a whole, so while some episodes were very weak, this season also had some very strong ones (some of the best rated ones on imdb for instance)

The pool of available voters has been expanded this time around, which means more of the voters have not actually seen the episode submissions and are just voting based off fame.

Uzo Aduba has become the new Anna Gunn rofl
