Because Artie is dead inside. He hates his life and his old lady, the only thing he enjoys is cooking and that seems to be ruined because of Charmaine's ongoing presence, but is really being ruined because of Tony's fat ass eating for free. Deep down, Tony does have a ruined corpse that passes as a conscience and he…

I remember watching the Tony coma dream episodes and thinking it was David Chase's direct reaction to the negative need back received in response to The Test Dream. Like Chase was making his own show and I admired him for it, but I enjoyed these "dream" episodes because the writers found ways to tell their stories in…

Mandatory "The Walking Dead had an amazing pilot followed by 12 episodes that didn't come close to living up to it" comment.

Maybe. But with a television show that consists of characters you've lived with for more than 50 episodes and there are call backs that give you something to think about if you're invested in the psychology of the horrible people on the show. When Tony tells Annette Benning, "Somethin' bad's gonna happen." I remember…

"And the Romans… where are they now?"
 
"You're lookin' at 'em asshole."

This is why I take exception to all the "AMC is the new HBO" comments. Right now AMC has the two best shows on TV and a handful of forgettable crap. During HBO's heyday they had the five or six best shows on TV, 30 years of TV changing history and 14 George Carlin speacials. AMC vs. HBO isn't even a debate.

I think the episode you're thinking of is season one's "Denial, Anger, Acceptance" with the Rabbi who calls Tony a golem.

I remember watching this episode and feeling like I was dreaming, but that might have just been the weed.

Raylan and Boyd's friendship/rivalry is probably the best written and acted relationship on television. I love the teasers we've been getting, I've certainly got more of a reaction out of Boyd finding Raylan's hat than I did out of anything on this season of Sons.

I'm still waiting for you guys to cover the Christmas episode of OZ.

How about A Christmas Carol retrospective? You could call the article 1,000 ways to make the same movie.

That I'd think about paying 85 bucks for.

Raylan's an U.S. Marshall tracking a fugitive in Texas and since no one else is allowed to wear a hat on TV(excepting the cast of Boardwalk Empire), he massacres the entire cast by having Boyd blow the ranch apart with a rocket.

Can Raylan Givens or Boyd Crowder (the more likely and preferable option)  shoot all of those people in the face?

Would you call Donna an innocent?

Is that you, Kurt Sutter?

To me, the most defining aspect of The Shield was the immediacy of the docu-drama  shooting style. That feeling like you were in the rooms with the Strike Team  as they were making these horrible decisions, allowing the audience to relate to Mackey and co. Sons, however, seems to borrow it's style from other well-done…

Of course babies count(especially at Penn State, sorry I couldn't hep myself) these shows are all equal-opportunity perverts, but while Gretchen Moll's winky kissing is certainly squirm inducing as a bit of dialogue, I have to believe GOT showing brother/sister doggy-style action is on another plain entirely.

Well sure, what's his name and that girl who's way too young to play his mother's relationship is very icky, but only implied. Boardwalk never "went there" like Game of Thrones. I can't attest to the incestitude of Bored to Death.

To me this is the main problem with the show, Sutter fees like he needs to have a shootout of one variety or another in every episode and since he has characters this rich he really, really doesn't.
