Pretty much every show Amc throws out there is at least worth a few episodes to see if they will stick. Putting out some good shows. Been watching Low Winter Sun when I can't sleep, decent so far.

Haven't caught that one yet, will probably check it out on Netflix. Breaking Bad and Walking Dead are the only AMC shows I'm heavily invested in. Walking Dead is losing my interest though, another weak season and I'll relegate it to the back burner.

Oct 15 is the rumored day to see if A La Carte TV will happen anytime soon.

Most people would not pay 30 bucks a month for ESPN so what they'd offer would falter and then all of the sudden they'd be dropping off MNF, soccer coverage, baseball, etc. because they can't afford it. Same thing with local sports channels (Fox Sports, Comcast Sportsnet, etc.)
A guestimate on if the cost of the factor of 5 (meaning one in five people subscribe subscribe to them at cost, which probably isn't true) your cable only bill for the top 10 channels would be about 78 a month.
If you want to lower your cable bill petition your government for fair competition. Not A La Carte. A La Carte is bad for the consumer and bad for many TV networks we enjoy. Only people who'll benefit (though not as well) are the cable providers.

what a weird post
Just finished watching orange is the new black on Netflix. Really enjoyed it. Looking forward to season 2.
My wife and I just finished seasons 1-4 of Sons of Anarchy on Netflix. Really good show. Maybe would have been different if I started watching in the beginning and having to wait but it keeps me interested, wanting more. We've stayed up very late a few nights watching one or two more episodes.
I kinda like the binge watching of shows. Makes it easier to keep up with what's going on instead of trying to remember the plot of a dozen shows at a time.
Got the final 8 episodes of Breaking Bad on the dvr. Should be done by the weekend
I'm watching True Blood for the first time, in Season 2 now. Surprisingly entertaining. I usually get bored with vampire stuff but I like this. William Sanderson (brother of Daryl and Daryl) is funny in just about anything.
Brewmasters on Netflix. Obviously over dramatized, but cool show. Reminds me why I want to work in the brewing world.

I can't believe they've removed King of the Hill from Netflix and Amazon Prime. Just realized it was available a couple weeks ago. Watched the first 2 episodes on Netflix, went back tonight to watch more and I couldn't find it. Checked online and it's gone.
That sucks. I've watched probably every episode a handful of times but loved to watch them. Sucks I can't go back to it. It will be back at some point I'm sure. Probably as part of a bigger deal with Fox.

King of the Hill is genius. Very underrated show.
Forever Fredi
Both true points. I hate people who knock King of the Hill but like other Mike Judge things. Most of his comedies are basically the same sure there are some slight variations but in general they're all rreally quirky character driven comedies. The best part is they all are complex characters as well. Not shallow like some other comedies that steal all thier jokes from the Simpsons.

FWIW, I liked Family Guy the first 2 seasons. It's only when it came out of cancellation that I felt they went really over the top and changed a lot of things.
Forever Fredi
Family GUy's first 2 Seasons were good. But I think they were good because the ideas were still newish. Not the show idea of course but the writing was so it wasn't rehashing and overkilling jokes. Stilll has some funny moments in it but I don't watch it because of like I said it being largely rehashed. And the injustices of cancelling Futurama and Arrested Development and not bringing them out. Though Bob's Burgers is pretty glorious. Hope that doesn't get the Arrested D cut because it doesn't make ratings.

Been watching Clone Wars all day while resting my foot injury.

Have all three right now on my Roku and haven't missed cable/satellite at all. Started on clone wars too.
I think Clone Wars proves how good the Star Wars universe is when Lucas isn't directly involved.

George Lucas was actually quite involved with The Clone Wars..
