He was appallingly bad on The Flash. It was like he was unhappy with his contract and trying to get the sack.

It's the way he INSISTS on emphasising every SENTENCE in the SAME WAY I find irritating.
I suppose it PREVENTS HIM from having to DISPLAY any ACTUAL EMOTIONS.
I wonder what made the Marcella people go full fucking horror film for a couple of moments there, the cunts. Take away all the ancillary stuff that was presumably there to serve as table setting for a second series and I reckon they could have told that story in about three episodes.
I guess TV's golden age is over.
Everything that's ever been popular is getting remade or rebooted. Some things look quality, like Westworld, but all the 'network' stuff just looks like putrid shit.
The Rocky Horror Picture Show has been remade, for fuck's sake.
Gotham really is pits.
In this weeks episode:

I honestly don't know how much longer I can keep watching.
It seems that CBS are trying to crank out Person of Interest as quickly as possible. The 13 run season has the following air dates:
May 3rd, May 9th, May 10th, May 16th, May 17th, May 23rd, two on May 24th, May 30th, May 31st, June 7th, June 14th and finally June 21st.
Other broadcasters should do the same.
Yeah Gotham's gone shit again.
Decided to start on Orphan Black. I'm pissed that I've only just decided to try it out, it's damn good.
To continue the "everything is getting rebooted for TV and it all looks shit" theme, do we really need a television version of Training Day?
"No, we do not", would be the answer to that.
The film is a classic, but it was a fucking training day. Singular. How does that even work over the course of a series? It doesn't even make sense.
24 managed it.
It'll be complete arse, like the rest of them. It does seem odd that about fifteen film properties are suddenly being made into TV shows though. Are they all owned by the same struggling production company or something?
Speaking of which, they actually are rebooting 24 as well, with Dr. Dre from the NWA film taking the main role.
I think I'll struggle to care about it without Jack, to be honest.
I actually like the look of that.
They'd have been better off calling it something different though.
So, Arrow.

I've also finished off the first season of Orphan Black and it really is great.

The video has been put back up on the original Youtube account but that's proper fucking shit from Fox.
The guy now has over 100k views so he's probably happy with the eventual outcome.
I know I've made this point already, but Archer is on one hell of a roll at the moment. The most recent episode was one of the weaker in this season, and still managed to knock it out of the park.
Finished Billions this afternoon. I thought it was excellent, and a very good season finale too. Can't wait for the second season to start, just a shame I've got such a long wait.
Paul Giamatti continues to show why he's one of Hollywood's finest.
Preacher is off to a terrifically fun start. Joseph Gilgun was presumably cast off the back of his turn playing a headcase in Lockout, because his character is a complete fucking nutter. Absolutely bonkers.
The way they've scheduled it is a bit shit, with the first episode showing last night then being repeated next week followed by 'Talking Preacher', before normal service resumes the following week. A two week gap between premiere and the second episode doesn't seem like the way to build a fanbase, although I suppose people like me will be gravy when the built in audience from the comics is apparently so huge.
It's an old trailer, but it offers a taste of what they're doing and every trailer AMC have released since is region locked to the US.
I can't to speak to how faithful the adaptation is, though if it's as unfilmable as I've heard then it's almost certainly not very faithful, but it's a lot of fun.
The Americans has been renewed for another two years, with the sixth definitely being the last.
That's probably good that they know far enough in advance when it's going to finish.
I'd quite like to see them still there come the fall of the Soviet Union and what happens then.
The end date was set by the showrunners rather than the network too, which is always good news.
Oh and I've now finished the first three seasons of Orphan Black.
It's such a shitter that I'm pretty much all caught up now
Helena though
Actor Michael Jace found guilty of second-degree murder http://dailym.ai/1VtaNk7 via http://dailym.ai/android
Probably called him a big bum boy.
Silicon Valley is the best thing going right now. The callback to Russ in the latest episode was brilliant.
Jared. Nice. Using that dick.
It's the best, smartest, funniest comedy (that I've seen) that's been on television in ages. It makes me happy that not only does it continue to me made but that it seems to do well.
This weeks episode is probably the best one of this season. This season is shaping up to be the best so far, too.
Done with my Seinfeld rerun.
Peaky Blinders is pretty good. As in HBO good.
All the accents are terrible though.
Sell me on Silicone Valley?
Now I've finished Freaks and Geeks, I need something else to watch.
I'm a twit
I've finally got around to starting The Wire properly. Three episodes in. I'm enjoying it so far.
Jealous right now.
Looking forward to the favourite season discussion already!
After what has probably been it's weakest year so far Arrow didn't even do it's usual trick of massively uppong it's game for the last episode or two of the season to the same extent. Not sure about the Flash finale either.
Not sure what to watch while I've briefly got a bit of a lull in stuff I'm recording. Just powering through Archer to hit the good stuff is an option but there are loads of other things I still need to watch. Might make a start on Sons of Anarchy.
Imagine getting to sit down and watch The Wire for the first time.
Are you watching the original DVD version or the wide screen HD remastered version?
I've never seen The Wire either. I've heard it's tough to get into, so I keep putting off starting it.
Hah. I quite like the stuff in whatever-that-place-was-called in the second-last episode of Arrow but the whole thing seemed like a waste and the flashbacks are increasingly a waste of time and I don't know why they don't bin them off.
I didn't have any trouble at all getting into it. I don't think it's a tough watch.
I've actually lost all ability to follow Person of Interest, I wake up one day and there's 4 new episodes and nothing for a few weeks and then 2 more pop up. So I'm waiting till they finish the season and start again.
I think I got into The Wire by catching a later episode and getting into that one, then going back to the start. Same with Walking Dead, the first episode of that I ever saw was when Rick was stuck in the house with that gang of bandits.
