Archer on FX. It's the funniest spy show ever.

I was laughing so hard during the Burt Reynolds episode that I kept spilling my drink.

Was looking forward to "Magic City" and have to say, I enjoyed it. Hope it doesn't get to soapy or gangsta...but the sets and clothing was fabulous!!!

Just made it through the second episode of Magic City. I love the sets and costumes but I'm still not too into it. It was cool seeing the Mai Kai(Molokai Bar) in this episode, though.

So I have been watching "Magic City" I was hoping this was going to be a "Hard boiled" retro show
with a Mad Men vibe & so far this show has dropped the ball on narrative, Accurately portraying the era & style
No one has anything interesting to say.
Except for the two leads the acting is sub par with the rest of the cast, I can see the plot coming from a mile away
and I expect more from a show like this..........Can it improve? since we are half way thru the season it doesn't seem so.

Gidget. My 4 year old daughter thinks it's the greatest show ever and tells me she wants to be like her when she grows up:)

I just started to re-watched Black Books from the beginning again. Right up there with the Young Ones in total contempt for everything except booze.

On a solid episode of Madmen tonight, Roger took clients to Trader Vic's
which appear to have been filmed at Trader Vic's L.A.

I am hopelessly addicted to Magic City...LOVE IT!!! Other than that really the only shows I watch regularly are Psych & Burn Notice. TV is really bad...I typically end up watching movies and reruns.

This is a great show.
Here is one of the best episodes. (funny as Heck)
Chef Anthony Bourdain tending the saute station (with Chef Eric Ripert at the grill) on the line at the Brasserie Les Halles in NYC.
"It's interesting to read his book Medium Raw where he says that there is no way he could have done it the next day because it is young person's game. He says that if you are 31 years old, you are too old to work in this environment"
I too found myself too old for that environment and sold my restaurant.
Dam I miss it though.
