Dexter: The las seasone may have been a bit... meh, but still, great character
There were more than a few moments within the last season which I thought were great, others, not so much. I love this show, but it's time to put it to rest. The television character, Dexter Morgan, will never be a human being. Stop trying, already.
Back on topic, i've watched too much television, over the past year or so...
I'm really into 'Shameless' (US). I'm not a fan of the UK version, it seems like a soap opera, to me. The US version is simply fantastic. Well, most of it, anyway; I have a feeling it will get old... might as well enjoy it while I can.
Also, still into Californication, though i'm steadily losing interest. I want to watch Hank Moody get laid by countless women, chain-smoke cigs like a factory, drink like a fish and still have a productive life all while cracking some sick jokes. There's just too much going on to really care anymore.
Two and 1/2 Men is getting old, too. Like the character Hank, I want to watch Charlie do stupid shit, not really stupid shit, like getting married, for example.
Tosh.0 so gay. Come out of the closet, already; nobody makes that many gay jokes without being homo. I gotta admit, though, I love the fact this guy simply doesn't give two shits.
Thumbs up to John Stewart and Stephen Colbert. Although sometimes bland, their writing staffs still has the goods.
The Crow: Stairway to Heaven... never had a chance to watch this, before, and i'm kinda glad. Some network has been playing these one-season-but-cancelled shows really late at night, and i've watched more than a few. Cheesy! The scripts are horrible, but I can't stop watching. Guess I like to original movie too much.
I don't care to admit that i've seen every single episode of the X-Files. I also don't care to admit that I love every one of them, even the ones without Mulder.
The Walking Dead was surprisingly good, despite the fact it's a sitcom about zombie apocalypse. My only disappointment was the amount of episodes per season and the amount of commercials per episode. That many goddamn commercial advertisements, in one hour?! To hell with that.I'm a blackstar.

I did notice a lot of shows seem to be going from 45 minutes with 15 minutes of adverts down to 40 minutes with 20 minutes of adverts. I do not approve of this trend. I never watch adverts anyway (thank you, Sky Plus box) but there are some episodes you can really feel the 5 minutes they cut out to make more room for adverts.
The Walking Dead was especially bad. Not because of the length, but because in the UK they had this hideous man perfume advert for Joop Gloop or some such shit with the scantly clad prat dancing around and being smothered by a woman who apparently only loves him for his smell, which was really jarring comapred to the atmosphere created in the Walking Dead. Especially the horrible, horrible music.

What's actually the worst is syndication of TV shows designed around ad breaks and the local broadcast don't use those scene cuts for their own breaks but instead start cramming in their own randomly timed breaks... now that's annoying!
Anyway,
Still enjoying "Community", the amount of layers they have on some of the humor there is just fantastic. Season 2 started out a bit slow, but besides that it's been all good. Finding a lot of it to pretty much be comparable to Arrested Development in terms of cleverness and lasting appeal.
It's not my ZOMG FAVORITEST FAVORITE, but it's without a doubt one of the better things to've spawned in recent day and age.

The show does some stuff (a lot, actually) that some people might not easily catch onto (general character development, odd background details, sometimes deliberately overdoing guest actors or forcing in "annoying/awkward" things that sadly a lot of people find "cool" in other shows, planting weird details/facts/bits of information for use in later episodes, weirdo references, etc.)
