It's a shame this show only got two seasons. It's seriously one of the funniest shows i have ever seen. The music is also very good at times.

"I was in trouble like three words into that."

I can't wait for season 4 and the movie now!

"I don't have time for evil. As a matter of fact, i don't have time for time. You wanna know why? Cause i hate time. Now open up this door! And let me do my job the way i like! Timelessly!

This was an hilarious spoof of all these CSI and NCIS shows we have these days. Paul Scheer is an underrated comedic genius. I love that man.

Best episode: Dolphinnegan's Wake

The Office (UK)

Mon, 25 Jun 2012 08:41:58 GMT

Season 2 (25.06.2012 - 27.06.2012)

"You know Bruce Lee's not really dead, don't you? Yeah, it's in a book. What he did was he faked his own death so that he could work undercover for the Hong Kong police, infiltrating drugs gangs and the Triads."
"Yeah, I reckon that's true. Because if you were gonna send someone undercover to investigate the Triads, you'd probably want the world's most famous Chinese film star."

I don't really like this season that much. It's a little too depressing. And all the characters are so unlikable this time as well. I don't know what happened between the two seasons here, but it got very bleak and was not really that funny anymore.

Best episode: Motivation
Overall score for the season: 6/10

Season 1 (23.06.2012 - 25.06.2012)

"A postage stamp is legal tender. A busdriver would have to accept that as currency."
"Yeah, that would happen."
"Well if he doesn't, report him."
"Yeah, I'll report him when I'm walking home."
"You can taxi, if you've got enough stamps."

The Office (US)

Fri, 11 May 2012 04:05:36 GMT

Season 5 (19.06.2012 - 23.06.2012)

"Charles is having Kevin cover the phones for a while. How do I say this diplomatically? I think Kevin is doing exactly as well as anyone might have expected someone like him to perform in a position like that."

And this is where the show ends for me. This is the season where i felt the show first started to show it's decline in quality. It still had a couple of classic episodes like the Michael Scott Paper Company episode. But mostly there were just a lot of okay episodes and a few that i knew where so bad i just had to skip them like Moroccan Christmas. I'm gonna watch the UK Office again now.

Best episode: Michael Scott Paper Company
Overall score for the season: 7/10

Season 4 (17.06.2012 - 19.06.2012)

"And if we have to defend ourselves, I will stab the security guard in the eye with a jumbo chalk."
"No. No, you won't do that. Nope."
"Then I'll grind up the jumbo chalk and blow it in his eyes."
"Dwight, nothing with the eyes. Please?"

Best episode: Branch Wars
Overall score for the season: 9/10

Season 3 (12.06.2012 - 17.06.2012)

"What did you do, Prison Mike?"
"I stole and I robbed and I kidnapped the President's son and held him for ransom."
"That is quite the rap sheet, Prison Mike."
"And I never got caught, neither."
"Well, you were in prison, but... Mm-hmm."

I think this is my favorite season of The Office. Choosing the best episode of the season was really hard. That's what she said.

Best episode: Business School
Overall score for the season: 10/10

Season 2 (09.06.2012 - 12.06.2012)

"Comedy's very much alive, as are homeless people."

Best episode: Casino Night
Overall score for the season: 10/10

Season 1 (08.06.2012 - 09.06.2012)

"All right, girls, break it up; you're being infiltrated. Cock in the hen house."
"Cocks in the hen house."
"Don't say cocks."

Since that horrible last season left such a bad taste in my mouth, i have decided to watch the first 4 seasons (at least) just to remind myself why i used to love this show so much. Season 1 is not perfect either though. It was trying to much to be just like the British office still at this point. The show didn't really pick up until season 2.

Best episode: Diversity Day
Overall score for the season: 8/10

Season 8 (22.09.2011 - 11.05.2012)

"Good, good. This carpet's overdo for a good moppin'."
"Is a mop the most officiant tool to use on a carpet?"
"Yeah, it is actually."

Oh boy. This show reached a new low this season. It was embarrassingly bad at times. It's hard to believe that what used to be one of the funniest shows on TV has turned in to this. I thought maybe now that Michael Scott had left the show they would have to come up with some new ideas, but no. Just turn Andy in to Michael Scott 2.0 and make him the new manager. Problem solved. They really should have ended the show last season when he left. At least they could have ended it with a little dignity. And the new characters this season, Robert California and Nelly, are both awful. Okay, maybe Robert has made me laugh a couple of times, but Nelly just makes me cringe every time she is on screen. She is a terrible, terrible character. I can't stress that enough. Please kill her off. Not just fire the character or let her quit, because then there is a slight possibility that she can come back later. She needs to die. Horribly. She is that bad of a character. You know what, i don't care anymore. This is it. I'm done with this show. I'm not coming back next season like a battered housewife trying to convince myself that it will be better this time. No! Not anymore! I'm not gonna let them shit on the good memories i have of the old seasons of this show anymore. I'm done.

Best episode: Gettysburg
Overall score for the season: 3/10

The Inbetweeners

Thu, 07 Jun 2012 05:40:17 GMT

Season 3 (08.06.2012 - 08.06.2012)

"Oh, shit! The blue lights!"
"It's an ambulance."
"That's what they *want* you to believe!"

This show has been hilarious, but like most British shows, too short. Each season only had 6 episodes so i went trough them pretty quickly. I might have to give the movie another chance as well now that i have seen all the episodes.

Best episode: The Gig and the Girlfriend
Overall score for the season: 8/10

Season 2 (07.06.2012 - 08.06.2012)

"Why the fuck did you do that?"
"To get the Sea Police out!"
"And say what, "Help, We've caught a fish!"? We're already in the Harbour, What are they gonna do? Tow us four feet closer to the shore?"

Best episode: The Field Trip
Overall score for the season: 8/10

Season 1 (06.06.2012 - 07.06.2012)

"Please don't wank over my mum."
"Can't promise that, I'm afraid."

Much better than the movie so far.

Best episode: Bunk Off
Overall score for the season: 9/10

Game of Thrones

Mon, 04 Jun 2012 11:38:47 GMT

Season 2 (01.04.2012 - 04.06.2012)

"Don't fight for a king. Don't fight for his kingdoms. Don't fight for honor, don't fight for glory, don't fight for riches, because you won't get any. This is your city Stannis means to sack. That's your gate he's ramming. If he gets in it will be your house that burns. Your gold he steals, your women he rapes. Those are brave men knocking at our door. Let's go kill them!"

After a incredibly slow beginning this season really picked up around episode 6. I was actually thinking about quitting the show at one point it was so slow. But the great Peter Dinklage was enough for me to continue watching. And the episode Blackwater was so amazing it was totally worth it. Peter is in for another Emmy for that episode. The very last scene of the last episode this season got me really pumped for nest season as well. I just hope the beginning won't be as slow that time.

Best episode: Blackwater
Overall score for the season: 7/10

The Simpsons

Mon, 21 May 2012 15:01:30 GMT

Season 23 (25.09.2011 - 21.05.2012)

"I learned something today. Did you know that my work is the reason I get those checks every week? And now that I've been demoted, those checks have gotten smaller. Not in physical size, but in..."
"I Know!"

I really don't know why i still bother with this show. It used to be the funniest show on TV, and now i doubt it's even in the top 20. I love this show, but fucking end it already! That Lady Gaga episode has to be one of the absolute worst episodes in this shows history. An entire episode dedicated to Lady Gaga? Really? That's just a pathetic attempt at staying relevant.

Best episode: Beware My Cheating Bart
Overall score for the season: 5/10

Bob's Burgers

Sun, 11 Mar 2012 15:03:59 GMT

Season 2 (11.03.2012 - 21.05.2012)

"Channel Six News, they'll finger anything with a pulse!"
"I'm pretty sure they're slogan is 'their finger's on the pulse', Gene."
"No!"

It's a shame the season was so short. This is definitely one of the funniest shows on TV at the moment.

Best episode: Burgerboss
Overall score for the season: 10/10

Season 1 (06.03.2012 - 10.03.2012)

"How are you holding out, sweetie?"
"Fine. I'm just a little tired. Also, I might be a pimp."
"You're gonna need a bigger hat."

This is one of the funniest shows i have seen in a long time. Absolutely hilarious.

Best episode: Sheesh! Cab, Bob?
Overall score for the season: 10/10

Community

Fri, 18 May 2012 18:47:49 GMT

Season 3 (22.09.2011 - 18.05.2012)

"This is the second glee club we've lost in two years. And to think they were this close to regionals."
"What the hell are regionals?"
"They're this close, Pierce!"

Community continues to be one of the smartest shows on TV. It's both brilliant and hilarious.

Best episode: Digital Estate Planning
Overall score for the season: 10/10

Suburgatory

Fri, 18 May 2012 16:17:32 GMT

Season 1 (28.09.2011 - 18.05.2012)

"If you could have dinner with any famous person, living or dead, who would it be?"
"Scarlett Johansson... Dead."

I think this was the only new show this season i managed to finish. It was pretty funny. I'll watch anything with Alan Tudyk. He is brilliant.

Best episode: The Casino Trip
Overall score for the season: 7/10

Parks and Recreation

Fri, 11 May 2012 04:05:47 GMT

Season 4 (22.09.2011 - 11.05.2012)

"Hey! Did you maybe tell people that I diagnosed that guy with mumps based on his porn photo?"
"I did! I was so proud of you."
"Okay, because now I have everyone in city hall sending me pictures of their junk asking me if they have mumps."

This was a pretty disappointing season for me. After three perfect ones i was sad to see the decline in quality here. I hope it does not end up like The Office before they end it. Firs of all, Ron cared way too much about stuff and other people this season.I guess you can argue that it's character development, but i liked Ron just the way he was. I also didn't care much for this whole city console story line. Is the show still gonna be called Parks and Rec now even though the main character won't work there anymore? That's a bit strange. And finally, Tom and Ann should never be a couple. I can not think of a more miss matched couple than those two. People can start dating outside of their work place. You don't have to always make them date each other. What's next? Donna and Jerry? But other than that it was a good season. Paul Rudd killed it as Bobby Newport. I hope we get to see more of him in future episodes. Same with Jean-Ralphio. We always need more Jean-Ralphio.

Best episode: Meet 'n' Greet
Overall score for the season: 7/10

The Shield

Sat, 21 Apr 2012 11:47:06 GMT

Season 2 (22.04.2012 - 09.05.2012)

"You know Joe?"
"I remember his picture in the paper. He can't be here."

Not as good as the first season, but i still liked it. This show can get really dark sometimes.

Best episode: Partners
Overall score for the season: 7/10

Season 1 (06.04.2012 - 21.04.2012)

"My father's a lawyer."
"Mine's a brick layer. So what?"

A friend of mine turned me on to this show since i'm such a huge Justified fan, and especially Walton Goggins on it. I have been planning to watch it for a long time but never really got around to it until he practicably made me sit down and watch the first episode. After that i got hooked. This show is great. The ending of that first episode was something you rarely see in a pilot for any show. People who have seen it knows what i'm talking about. It showed you that you are not in for just another ordinary cop show, and that's what made me fall in love with it. Vic Mackey and his strike team get's the job done in unusual ways. I do think this season had a few too many forgettable filler episodes though. I hope the next seasons will handle that better. I'm getting the entire box set now so don't let me down.

Best episode: Pilot
Overall score for the season: 8/10

Futurama

Tue, 24 Apr 2012 11:54:55 GMT

Season 6 (16.04.2012 - 24.04.2012)

"You think you can just waltz in here with no pants and become a cop?"
"That's the plan."
"I like you, kid. I got no pants on either."

After the very disappointing Futurama movies i never bothered with seasons 6 until now. Well, this was much better than those. Not as good as the first four seasons, but still pretty hilarious.

Best episode: Law and Oracle
Overall score for the season: 8/10

Eastbound & Down

Mon, 16 Apr 2012 10:43:38 GMT

Season 3 (19.02.2012 - 16.04.2012)

"I gotta feed this motherfucker that is my son."

It was a good season, but not as good as the firs two. It was a fitting end to the series.

Best episode: Chapter 15
Overall score for the season: 7/10

Justified

Wed, 11 Apr 2012 11:21:39 GMT

Season 3 (17.01.2012 - 11.04.2012)

"I think the question you should ask is whether I care if you ride out of here cuffed in the back of my car or get carried out of here in a coroner's bag. The answer is me and dead owls don't give a hoot."

Another perfect season from my new favorite TV show. This show is just fantastic. I can't say that enough. I loved this season as much as season 2, which i thought was gonna be impossible. This seasons main new villain, Robert Quarles was a really fascinating character. Neal McDonough really pulled of his best performance yet here. He should definitely be nominated for an Emmy after this. Even win. The way that character slowly degenerated from respectable mobster to an all out psychopath was really good. He was really scary at times.

The other new antagonist this season, Ellstin Limehouse, was also really good. I would not call him an all out villain, but he is definitely a shady character. I hope we get more of him next season. I could go on and on about all the characters on the show here, but i'm just gonna say that i can't think of a single weak character on the show. There was very little of Tim and Rachel this season though. That was a little disappointing. Especially the lack of Tim. He has always been one of my favorites on the show. I'm not gonna spoil anything else from this season, it's too good for that, so i'll end this review here. It was another perfect season from a perfect show.

Best episode: Guy Walks Into a Bar
Overall score for the season: 10/10

Sherlock

Sat, 03 Mar 2012 16:39:21 GMT

Season 2 (15.03.2012 - 16.03.2012)

"Every fairy tale needs a good old-fashioned villain. You need me or you're nothing. Because we're just alike, you and I, except you're boring. You're on the side of the angels."
"I may be on the side of the angels. But don't think for one second that I am one of them."

Holy shit i LOVE this show! The ending of this seasons is the biggest WTF ending of any season of any show i have ever seen. Season 3 can not come fast enough. God damn this show!

Best episode: The Reichenbach Fall
Overall score for the season: 10/10

Season 1 (02.03.2012 - 03.03.2012)

"Don't make people into heroes, John. Heroes don't exist, and if they did, I wouldn't be one of them."

This was fantastic. I think this is the best adaptation of Sherlock Holmes i have ever seen. I was hooked from the very beginning. This was a very strange way to do a TV show though. It's only three episodes long, but the episodes lasts for around 90 minutes each. Almost like three movies instead of episodes in a TV show. Very clever. I ordered the second season on blu-ray after the first episode, but i'm not sure i can wait 3 to 7 days to watch it. It ends on such a cliffhanger.

Best episode: The Great Game

"One more times."
"It's not real money."
"Shit!"

Best episode: Pride

Father Ted

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 15:49:31 GMT

Season 2 (04.02.2012- 09.02.2012)

"And speaking of cake, I have cake!"
"No, thanks, Mrs. Doyle."
"Are you sure, Father? There's cocaine in it!"
"What?!"
"Oh, no, not cocaine. God, what am I on about? No, what d'you call them. Raisins."

A longer season. That was surprising for a British sitcom.

Best episode: Hell
Overall score for the season: 8/10

Season 1 (02.02.2012- 02.02.2012)

"Father... I've killed a man."
"Er, well, we'll talk about that later, Tom. Right now, I'm going to be on the telly!"

Like most British shows, this was very short (6 episodes), and very funny.

Best episode: Good Luck, Father Ted
Overall score for the season: 8/10

Breaking Bad

Sun, 01 Jan 2012 11:45:01 GMT

Season 4 (27.01.2012 - 31.01.2012)

"You clearly don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in: I am not in danger, Skyler. I am the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No! I am the one who knocks!"

Another season that knocks it out of the park. Again i could not stop watching as i was getting closer to the end of it. It was very tense. I think this season would have been a perfect end to the series. I really don't see how they can continue the story now, but i'm sure the writers will find i way. I just hope they don't let the show go on for too long, instead of ending when i it should like Dexter did.

Best episode: Face Off
Overall score for the season: 9/10

Season 3 (17.01.2012 - 26.01.2012)

"Look, I like making cherry product, but let's keep it real, alright? We make poison for people who don't care. We probably have the most unpicky customers in the world."

This was the best season of the show so far. Especially the last few episodes. Just when i think no episode is gonna top the one i just watched, the next one comes along and fucking does. This season was perfect. I hope season 4 is just as good.

Best episode: Full Measure
Overall score for the season: 10/10

Season 2 (03.01.2012 - 16.01.2012)

"What are you offering me?"
"What did Tom Hagen do for Vito Corleone?"
"I'm no Vito Corleone."
"No Shit! Right now you're Fredo!"

Best episode: Peekaboo
Overall score for the season: 8/10

Season 1 (27.12.2011 - 01.01.2012)

"We have to move our production bulk wholesale now. How do we do that?"
"What do you mean? To, like, a distributor?"
"Yes. Yes, that's what we need. We need a distributor now. Do you know anyone like that?"
"Yeah. I mean, I used to until you killed him."

I have been wanting to watch this show for a long time, and i'm finally getting around to doing so. Everyone i have talked to about TV-shows always brigs this show up and how great it is. And i have to say, they are right. This was a great first season and i can't wait to start the next one. I used to only know Bryan Cranston from Malcolm in the Middle, and his character in this is the complete opposite of Hal. He is a great actor.

Best episode: Crazy Handful of Nothin'

The League

Season 3 (08.01.2012 - 11.01.2012)

"So Taco want's me to play the offline avatar of this sex-offender guy."
"Sounds like type casting, Rafi."
"What does that mean?"

This show really turned great after the first season. It's hysterical at times. I can't wait for the next season now.

Best episode: The Lockout
Overall score for the season: 8/10

Season 2 (39.12.2011 - 07.01.2012)
