FALL IS COMING (Fall TV thread)

Fiz

It kind of sucks that The Cleveland Show was already renewed for a second season before the first episode even aired. They showed stuff from the first couple episodes at comic-con and it was just painfully bad. They kept going on about how the great thing about Cleveland is that he isn't a one-note character like Joe or Quagmire, so he could be able to handle different situations; the problem is that Cleveland is a zero-note character. I hate him and will never forgive this show for replacing King of the Hill

I'm going back to my spapeggy and meatballs now

Hey guys, oh man, Heroes is so edgy and hip. They were playing Guitar Hero 3!

Heroes was so good season one. Then I just lost all interest about 8 episodes into season 2 and then it just looked terrible.

Also I wanted to like How I met your mother, I love NPH, but the writing really does suck sometimes.

but

Heroes is universally terrible

HIMYM may have had a few flat episodes but for the most part the writing is clever and funny. What sitcom doesn't have flat episodes?

Okay except Arrested Development.

Projeck

himym is SO GOOD

if only for the cast

No Great Name

Heroes was never "so good"

It was always mediocre before it got exceedingly terrible, but nerds went along with it becuase omg superpowers.

Even me!

Faricazy

The Robin Sparkles episode alone was genius. HYMYM is allowed a few duds.

Before it even aired? Seriously?

And yeah, I thought the whole thing about Cleveland was that he was an incredibly boring character.

Centipede Damascus

yeah, I've never gotten all the love for HIMYM

it's no better or worse than Big Bang Theory, Two and a Half Men, that Julia Louis-Dreyfus show, whatever

it's all set-up, wisecrack, punchline. wash, rinse, repeat.

Yep. They were picked up for a second season earlier in the year. It's ass-backwards, but so many things about fox are that way. When Family Guy was renewed they did that joke where Peter listed EVERY SERIES that started and was cancelled before they got picked up again, and then they were able to make the same damn joke last season where they listed all the shitty shows that started and ended since they got back. Hearing it all at once is pretty telling

the previous insult needs a new standard retort

because this shit is 80s and lame

The Lovely Bastard

vsove the obvious one was centipede DUMBascus

Centipede Damascus

you should all know I am unrepentant about my terrible opinions

Artreus

Oh. I just remembered the biggest thing that bugged me about HIMYM. The laugh track. Shows should never ever have laugh tracks anymore and I loathe them with a passion. It should be too good for one.

Yeah but that seemed almost too cruel.

And it would've been 'More like Centipede Dumbasskiss'.

Cent, you and I share some opinions that the rest of the forum disagrees with and I like that

But you have compared HIMYM to the Big Bang Theory and Two And A Half fuckin' Men and for this I can never forgive you

I concur. That is a pretty serious insult.

I'd like the show even if I didn't think NPH was so dreamy.

Fiz

Two and a half men is the kind of program that makes me want to write a letter to the network asking why they hate America. And apparently one of the guys from that show won an Emmy the other day so what the fuck? Are people that terrible that they would watch this show?

Centipede Damascus

okay, show me something funny from How I Met Your Mother

I've only seen about four or five episodes, I could be wrong

Larlar

the first and only episode I've watched so far was Season 5's premiere and I thought it was funny enough to get me to continue watching the show for now

Artreus

Big bang theory is pretty awful.

The Lovely Bastard

watch either Swarley or Slap Bet

these are episode titles, centi

If you cannot like these two episodes, you are awful

Fiz

Watch the sex tape NPH made. It has nothing to do with the show but hot damn

Faynor

Neil Patrick Harris has a sex tape out? Since when?

Jon Cryer, and he in fact beat out NPH for this Emmy

Faynor

Also, the only thing I really like about HIMYM is Robin and Barney. The rest is just kind of eh sometimes.

Larlar

I never thought Alyson Hannigan would be my least favorite character in a show, but so far, that's the case.

my theory is that considering the other nominees were NPH, Tracy Morgan, and Jack McBrayer, the intelligent vote was too split for any of them to win

Marshall has quickly become my favourite character on the show. His bromance moments with Barney are always awesome.
