Enough good bits in the first two episodes for me to keep with it.

Has anyone watched that Maron show? It kind of sucks.

Watched the first ep if Top of the Lake. Weird. Good. Intriguing.

Bob's Burgers is actually pretty good.

Some have called it the best animated program currently on television (those people probably haven't seen Gravity Falls enough though).

I finished the 9 eps of HBO's Luck today.  Even though the series was cut short, I'd still recommend those 9 episodes as worthy of watching.   One storyline was left dangling a bit, but this is a rich series of stories and many came to a satisfactory end.  The filming technique for the horse race sequences was devised by Michael Mann and they are beyond compare with any I've ever seen.  For that alone, it deserves viewing consideration.

Yes, people definitely should. Aside from Girls, Luck was the best season of television in 2012, according to FLY's master list.

General reminder: at 12 EST on [adultswim] tonight "The Greatest Event In Television History" airs. It's not the same one as last year's "The Greatest Event In Television History" that was a fifteen minute special on the channel where Adam Scott and Jon Hamm did a shot by shot recreation of the introduction to Simon & Simon. Don't know what will happen on tonight's thirty minute installment, but it will involve Adam Scott and Amy Poehler doing something.
