I feel that way about the first season, but the second and third got me good.  It's still not one of my very favorite shows, but it's pretty high on the list.

Sure does bum me out that House of Lies seems to have not changed at all since season one (judging by the ads).  I had hoped that the cold critical reception might inspire them to change things a little bit.  But then, maybe they did and the ads just don't reflect that.  I will again give it a shot because of the cast…

Greenfield's good.

Just like his brother Tracy.

Oh man, I had totally forgotten about this series after watching the first episode, which was a conversation about… Lincoln, was it?  Or some other old politician, maybe.  Thank you for the reminder that this exists!  Great conversation, this was.

I don't think that was necessarily a question of blame.  I mean, I don't know what Gross intended in that question, but I am able to interpret that question as something along the simple lines of whether a specific example of real-life violence might disgust someone to an extent that he wouldn't want to depict…

Does one shut a butt down by toggling a switch, pulling a lever, turning a crank, or pushing a button?

But the universes supposedly only ever started clashing because of Walter crossing over.  He presumably wouldn't have done that if Peter had been saved by Walternate.  Bell might have crossed over later and started the damage himself, but I don't know.  It's hard to predict the potential butterfly effects in this…

I used to think it was Winmark (or Wynmark or Wynmarck, etc.).

I had hoped the white tulip thing would be because they were going to try and use the same technology Peter Weller was using, to send Michael forward in time.

In my experience, dubstep is often employed as trailer music (it's very well-suited to the quick cuts that trailers tend to use, even if it's not pleasant to listen to), but rarely appears in the corresponding films.

YES!

If only we could bind and gag Marlon's career.

Just like that zombie fellow does, I'll bet!

It tells me that it's about/set in a city that's broken, either politically or structurally (likely the former), which tells me there's probably a dude who will try to fix it or at least survive its brokenness, and he'll probably fail at the former, and maybe the latter as well, but probably achieve some sort of…

Not sure if sarcastic or genuine agreement.
