I thought this was a great series of Mad Men, but then again I thought Mad Men was pretty average until about the last couple of episodes of series 3 and then it became awesome ... I'm aware that some other people think it's gone the other way.

When i grew up (8-10yrs old) we used to get into Fantasyland free (or maybe 50c) and spend the day there. Largely without adults. Think there is a water park there now - not been back for almost 30 years. KG Lots of the Fantasyland playground thingys are still there. And yep, it was always free for...

I've never known Kiwi's to be so sentimental. We mistakenly did it with Wilkinson but at least he played in and won a World Cup final. This stifling of young talent could possibly signal the decline of NZ rugby. Some great young talent but unfortunately the old sacred cows in the national team will...

Cruden is a better S15 player than Carter now. You could arguably say the same about Cooper, Lambie, perhaps even Steyn. But in internationals when defences are tighter and the game is much more intense, I would rather have Carter than anyone else in the world. This. There are some things that othe...

I think he's trying to be to Arrested Development what Euge is to Battlestar Galactica. Other than that it appears he lacks a sense of humour.

:lol: It's horrifying isn't it? I'll see if I can find a gif of Michael's reaction. Regarding P&R, the first season and then the first few episodes of season two are rubbish. The Office-lite. After that it gets brilliant, although it's become pretty boring lately. You want a great second season of ...

How are you finding the current Community incarnation Dumble? Soulless drivel. Average for a normal show I guess, but a huge, huge, step down from what it was. http://25.media.tumblr.com/831602d506db48ca24792c9d9b1ef1ca/tumblr_mjip31aMsH1s89cr7o1_500.gif Yeah, it's like all the ingredients are ther...

EF, Parks has got blah again. I've stopped watching. Back to AD though, I'm excited to see Judy Greer. She's been slaying for Archer. And just for, well, everything. http://24.media.tumblr.com/8f2777b926784c282ad09ac401983664/tumblr_mkr723gZcT1r4wvwvo1_250.gif http://24.media.tumblr.com/c8c5899b9ca...

I'm rewatching atm, it is so f**king good. I laugh out loud on my own 4 or 5 times an episode, that doesn't happen with anything else. Last night they showed the P&R in which your avatar is outed as Duke Silver. I very nearly shat at some points in the programme. P&R is awesome. Awesome, awesome sh...

looking forward to this - like to see what level this is at. If asked how would the Aus rugby set up - specifically the Sydney club scene - compare with the English comp (Premiership - Championship - Div One) or NZ Comp ITM cup. KG Div one, below both others. Trouble is the lop sided nature of the ...

I just watched it again and I have to say I was right first time and it sucks and blows Not only were a lot of the dramatic events fake, they didn't even keep the original poster! http://canadianculturething.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Argo_po...

Jesus Christ! Congrats to the Stormers, they shut out the Chiefs well As for Peyper - WTF man? How did he miss that Stormers player joining incorrectly in that last ruck ...

You don't put any stock in senior players returning to NZ provinces? Caucau got his NZ start with Northland, I'd assume he'd consider them his home province.

Finally ended up seeing it last night. I thought it was his best film since Pulp Fiction. The cast were excellent and apart from it being a bit over-long (as others have mentioned) it was enjoyable throughout. Surprisingly funny too. It was a lot less over the top than I was expecting from the trai...

But yes, I can confirm your long standing vocal hatred of BSG around here. I don't know about hatred ! I watched the first three series. But Rugga is totally bullshitting if he maintains I've ever sung its praises. I don't think I could watch 3 series of a show I didn't like*. FFS, it was only 4 se...

Nah - I love Mad men .. But Deadwood Luck and Breaking Bad are at least as good. I can't rate Luck at the same level as any of those other series as it was over too quickly, whereas even Deadwood managed two series and the others are at 5 or so. Part of an ongoing drama is how the characters change...

Are you seriously trying to suggest that they did not try and cash in the success of the Wire by recasting many of the same actors and promoting the show as being from the "producers of The Wire"?

It's far too emotive about newspapers. Understandable, given the writers, but still. The serial killer stuff is just monumentally lame. The crooked journo is based on real life experience, though.
