Damn, didn't even thing about that. Could have saved $30. Oh well....

If you ever get the chance, watch Utopia on there. Couchtuner is the only way to watch it in the states. Great show as well.

Ahh man; couchtuner is only out of impoverished entertainment necessity :lol: You are getting infinitely better resolution and sound quality through the Apple store. I am feeling like in this show's setting; there is a lot of beautiful scenery getting lost on a 320p web stream :cry:

Watched a show on Netflix, think it was called Black Mirror. Kept me entertained, sort of like a modern British twilight zone essentially. Only 6 episodes up though

I've only watched one episode so far, but it was pretty fucking bizarre. I need to finish this series.

Just started Black Sails. Eh, it's O.K. The theme music is pretty cool at least.

It pisses me off that they cancelled "The Following". They had just gotten back into a groove after the Joe Carrol arc and it seemed like there was some good stuff coming. 90% of the shows I like get cancelled while trash like "The Real Housewives of Trailer Park 6" get renewed indefinitely. Seems that if a show requires the viewing public to think, or pay attention to details, it doesn't last long. Bastards...

Max is "approachably pretty". Hot enough to attract your attention, but "average" enough to make you think you have a shot :lol:

I agree with you on the Real Life of Macon Georgia or wtf-ever but the Following has sucked this season. At least from the first 3 episodes or so I watched. I was good through season 2 but the start of this one definitely had a tangible "jumping the shark" feel to it.

Hopefully they will at least tie it up for the remaining season? I hate when sh*t gets cancelled and they leave on a cliffhanger note.

The last episode supposedly does, but I haven't watched it yet. It's on the DVR. It would be great if a "cable" channel would pick it up...
