Buffy?
Yeah, apparently
He gets his hands, feet and tongue amputated by a villain in the books, but lives. He later returns with prosthetics and a voice box thing. He's essentially cyborg Doakes
I was never a big fan of Heroes, didn't make it through the first season.
Heroes had one good season. Dexter has had at least three - arguably more.
Buffy, I thought, was solid all the way through. I actually like the later seasons more than the earlier ones. 7 was definitely the worst, but I have a soft spot for 4 and 6. 5 was probably the best of the bunch or at least tied with 3.[DOUBLEPOST=1378841135,1378841050][/DOUBLEPOST]

That sounds amazing. I suddenly picture him saying, "Surprise motherfucker!" in a Dr. Sbaitso voice.

Numb3rs, at least I assume it's final season was horrible. I couldn't continue on past some point early in season 4. Just reading the summaries for 5 & 6 is enough to make me cringe.
Buffy Season 6 was terrible, barring three really good episodes.
Heroes was so terrible after the first season that it retroactively made season 1 bad.
Heroes season one was great. Everything afte that was a festering turd. I'm curious what would have happened if not for the writers' strike. It showed promise, but I'm not convinced they actually knew where they were going with 90% of the storylines.
Not knowing where you're going with storylines is not an excuse for them being bad. Breaking Bad for example is straight up seat of the pants writing. They didn't even know why they had Walt what he was doing in the opening scene of this season, just that they needed something cool to start it.
It's not an excuse, but it can lead to bad things. With Breaking Bad, certain things weren't known right off the bat, but the gist of it, they had an idea. Take a nice guy and turn him into scarface. They had their character arc from day one. I don't think Heroes had that much.
Also, you can pre-order theBreaking Bad Complete series now(release date Nov 26th). I ordered it last night, the price has jumped up $100 since then so I just might be getting a bargain. Those bonus features are going to rock my socks off.
Normally so do I. But in this case I don't even care. I must have it.
There's another show that, while not as strong as Dexter in the beginning, really took a dive after 2 or 3 seasons.
I honestly don't give a shit what happens on that show anymore and there's only room for one terrible show in my life right now.
Just finished season 5...damn.
Also finished season 2 of Angel, this guy needs like fifteen hugs a day I mean damn! I also love the Host, he is funny and probably my favorite new character.
What a dark ending. WELL *CLAP* time to watch season six where she clearly comes back to life because television!

Gargoyles, the last season was so meh that Greg Weisman made the comic book series made right after season two to make up for it.
No offense Yoshi, but if you don't want to be spoiled,you could do others the same courtesy. Yes, I knew, and all that, but that really is quite a big one
Not the coming back, of course, because television, but the dying bit.
Yeah my bad, should've put a tag there.
Really even though I knew she was coming back, it was still like freakin' WHOA! And I'm kinda conflicted on the whole bringing her back thing, since this is how they were going to end it right? On the one hand its Buffy saying screw you to her destiny as a slayer, but on the other hand it makes the sacrifice kinda pointless as well as tacking on another season. So I guess I'm both glad and mad with this story outcome. Weird.
ONCE MORE, WITH FEELING!
I wonder if it will still have Kuby and Huell as supporting characters
They have been talking about doing that since like the second episode he appeared in.
It's not old news, they literally just announced it was actually happening now. Yeah, it was rumoured for a long time, but never outright confirmed. Gilligan will take part and he'll hand it off to the writer that created Saul.
AMC's running scared. Breaking Bad is over, Mad Men is coming to an end. What do they have other than Walking Dead?

I can't imagine it not. More Kuby and Huell is never a bad thing.

AMC is like the evil twin of the MTV effect. Music Television now plays horrible reality tv instead of music, and American Movie Classics now shows compelling, popular contemporary shows everybody talks about instead of old black and white feature films everybody ignores.
Man, I like MMA. I've always enjoyed some Ultimate Fighter and I was stoked for the new season because I also like women's MMA and a season of fights from the same weight class of women and men should be interesting. First episode and every single talking head they've shown has been crying about how they're doing this for their families and blah, blah, blah, COME ON.
I know this is Fox manipulating and more "REALITYING" up the reality portion of the show and it shows. And it sucks. No wonder they're doing sub 700,000 viewers per episode now. Show's in the tank. Like MMA in general right now.
