Awesome. I'll add it to the DVR.
edit: Perhaps not. It appears it's no longer showing.

Watched too much TV last night.
The penultimate Star-Crossed is building up to the big space-alien attack on Mardi Gras next week in what will likely be the series as well as season finale. This show is like a cross between District 9 and a WB teen soap.
Season finale of Bates Motel had great performances by both leads. Less of the fun whiplash-inducing shifts in tone tonight, this was a pretty straightforward dramatic/creepy hour. Setting up Norman's brother as the 22ish marijuana kingpin next season still seems a bit much though.
Both new episodes of Louie were good. I particularly liked the surreal bit with the garbagemen.
This week's episode of Veep was hilarious as usual and remains the best and most realistic show about DC.

Forgot to mention I am watching episodes of Metal Hurlant on SyFy as well. Well DVRing them, I watched the first 2 and have the rest recorded to watch when I get a chance.

I've been watching the latest season of Archer. This whole Charlene thing is hilarious. I'm behind on Archer. Must remedy that soon. Haven't started the last season of Mad Men yet either. Might wait till it's all done so I can watch them without waiting for a week between episodes. I had been watching a couple Canadian shows, Republic of Doyle and Actic Air, but they're both done for the year now. Unfortunately, rumour has it that my favourite of the two, Arctic Air, is cancelled now, probably due to the big cuts to the CBC budget announced a few weeks ago by the public broadcaster hating Conservative government. I just finished season 3 of Breaking Bad. Still not totally enraptured by this series but I'm interested enough that I'll probably keep going to the end.

Last night I watched the new episode of TURN, in which Gen. Washington finally appears. Pulled up on hulu last weeks Agents of SHIELD, which is still working throught the repurcusions of the Winter Soldier film. (Also caught most of the new The Simpsons, which was a kind of SF story about an alternate dimension where everyone is made out of Lego.) I've been watching and enjoying TURN as well. It's well paced but could use a bit more action. It just doesn't feel like it's quite gotten its feet under it yet.

I'm not enthusiastic about the Gotham TV series but this trailer is kind of cool. Forgot to mention I am watching episodes of Metal Hurlant on SyFy as well. Well DVRing them, I watched the first 2 and have the rest recorded to watch when I get a chance. For the most part I've been enjoying Métal Hurlant Chronicles. I've been watching the latest season of Archer. This whole Charlene thing is hilarious. Love Archer Vice. Outlaw country!

I don't know if everyone's cable company has ME TV or not. This is probably my favorite channel right now. It's nothing but classic TV metvnetwork.com/Saturdays from 7pm to 9pm is Batman and Wonder Woman. But everything else on there is great.

I mostly watch Svengoolie and Star Trek reruns on MeTV but they air tons of other classic shows.

I mostly watch Svengoolie and Star Trek reruns on MeTV but they air tons of other classic shows. It's great. In the wee hours in the morning they play stuff like Thriller and those weird science fiction shows. I like watching M*A*S*H and Welcome Back, Kotter

I don't know if everyone's cable company has ME TV or not. MeTV is a digital subchannel that should be available via antenna in most markets.

The season's penultimate Agents of SHIELD aired last night. Had some fun action sequences, vintage Howling-Commando Era spy gadgets, and the spy thriller elements continuing to ramp up.
80s paean The Goldbergs synergized with that other Disney property, Star Wars, for May the 4th. A weaker-than-usual outing.

I'm kind of excited about Guillermo del Toro's The Strain premiering on FX in July. Here's one of the teasers. The season's penultimate Agents of SHIELD aired last night. Had some fun action sequences, vintage Howling-Commando Era spy gadgets, and the spy thriller elements continuing to ramp up. That was a fun episode.
