    lol
    High brow! <ok>

    I know what you mean to an extent though, but thats American Network television for you. AMC in particular.
    Breaking Bad and Walking Dead have some of the most extreme violence I have ever seen on a TV show. Not to mention some extremely questionable morality. Not that I give a ****, that **** makes good TV, but I think its weird they have no problem showing this, but no boobies!
    Breaking Bad shows people being melted in vats of Acid, someones throat being slit with a box cutter, very explicitly, Class A Drug manufacturing on an industrial scale, people OD'ing meth and other substance abuse.
    Walking Dead shows limbs being hacked off, belt literally getting torn to pieces by armies of cannabilistic undead, noses and ears ripped off. Little girls being shot in the face (more than once), and in the last episode alone we saw an 8 year old getting his face bitten off.

    But no boobies....<laugh>

    If i want a real show, it will be a real show. cops n'robber, political drame etc etc. Breaking bad is a perfectly fine show. its a different type exploring a real issue in a dramatised way.

    the wire was of its time in terms of killings but life was cheap in it.

    lads running about pretending to be zombies is fine on mythbusters but i can't take is seriously as a show. its the zombie thing that i go ... ah no there can't be doing with this.

    GoT needs more boobs out i think.

    Yeah I have noticed since the original cast are now very famous, they are drafting in a lot of new females in who are willing to get nekkid.
    Ros' character was pretty much killed off because she refused to get her baps out anymore, which is problematic when you are playing a whore.
    The new Sand Snakes obviously seem to have been told, "Hey, want a job on Game Of Thrones? Well, there's a catch...."

    Well I always liked Romero's zombie films which is what drew me to WD.
    BUT Walking Dead is such a great show, despite it not having the great writing that other cable shows on HBO and Showtime have, purely because no one had ever gotten in to what would happen during a real zombie apocalypse.
    How tribes of humans band together, how the survivors either adapt or die.
    How Zombies are now not the real threat (unless they number in thousands) because people know how to handle them, but the real threat is other humans, just things like, having no electricity, growing your own food.
    The different choices people make, some groups are dictatorships,l governed by cruel facists. Some are democratic.
    Pragmatism, ruthlessness, kindness, all called in to question.
    The strong preying on the weak, the weak doing whatever they can to survive without having to fight (Eugene).

    Its a fascinating study in human psychology if nothing else.

    Not quite but general gist...some things happen in a different order, some extra characters that do things that got moved to main characters in the show etc

    If you havent watched them, how do you know they are ****ty?
    I don't think they have made a bad movie yet, since Disney took over at least.
    Some have been better than others, but all are good.

    lol Necrophilia!!

    Vikings needs more boobs.
    Purely because it has a lot of hot women in it.
    Lagartha! Also King Ecberts Daughter in law, the one who got her ear cut off, I find her incredibly sexy!

    watched a couple of the x men originals didn't really like them.

    Watched x men first class sort of. Was gaming, my cousin had it on it the background, that was alright to be fair.

    My cousin always has walking dead on. Not really my thing, get bored when stupid things like 1 guy gets eaten by 2 zombies yet another guy fights through thousands of zombies.
