That's exactly what I want to hear.

Ever since The Shield went off the air, as well as The Sopranos and soon to be lost, there has been a huge void in the shows I watch. I never even checked out SoA, so maybe I should dive into that as well.

You should definitely check out Sons Of Anarchy. I really enjoyed the first season, but the second season is 100x better.

I'd recommend Breaking Bad. It's my favorite show currently airing and it sounds like it would be right up your alley. Season 3 starts on Sunday and seasons 1 & 2 are both available on dvd. If you like season 1, it only gets 100 times better in season 2.

Can't wait. It looks like Deadwood in modern day Kentucky.

Not really. WWE adds people like that to their roster page all the time and they never show up. Back when 300 came out they added King Leonidas, stuff like that.

Now it wouldn't shock me to see them sign Timothy Olyphant to be a "host" of an upcoming RAW in the next few months. That is very possible I would think. The guys, or just one really since the other was in the hospital at the time, from Psyche hosted RAW a few weeks ago.

I just noticed all the reviews on MetaCritic, and it's still looking great:

It's not considered an overlap if a show is scheduled to a certain time like this one is. Also, for those with conflicts at 10/9 Central, FX is running the show a second time from 11:11-12:22. That's the episode I'm recording.

Set up to record. Didn't get a particularly glowing review in today's WP.

I liked it. Pretty funny near the end. Ain't no way this doesn't get a second season.

That was awesome. Showed a lot of potential I'm definitely in for the season. Based on the previews, it looks to only get better from here. Can't wait until the episode where

Spoiler:
the guy has the gun pointed at Rayland's head and says Rayland won't be able to shoot him before he shoots Rayland, to which Rayland replies "I can shoot him first."


That was pretty funny. Really liking the character so far; he has just the right mix of funny and serious, courageous and crazy. I loved when one of the deputies pulled out the rifle and asked the sheriff whether he wanted him to kill or wound them, lol.

Looks like it's going to be a fun show, can't wait until next Tuesday.

Bad ass episode. Olyphant has created a great character and I'm on board till the end.

Also good to see upcoming Rescue Me and Sons of Anarchy.

Strong first episode. They pulled you in pretty quickly, explained the title, showed Raylen's mindset, and left plenty to explain in future episodes. I can totally see how this could be renewed for season 2 so quickly, especially in the void left by the Shield.

In the DVR for the season. Another FX hit.

Timothy Olyphant is the shit and it's awesome to see him on TV again. This is like his modern day Bullock. Instead of just holding it all back till he explodes he just speaks in complete sarcasm until he explodes.

The scenes with Olyphant/Goggins were some of the best ever on TV. God damn that's some fantastic casting.

Just AWESOME. Glad Shane's not dead too. SUPERB all around--another solid new show from FX, continuing to put the networks to shame.

I'm a huge Shield fan and a huge Deadwood fan...so this is a dream cast. It's like both shows made an awesome baby. Amazing first episode, and I'm in for the long haul.

Still watching, but hot damn is Walton Goggins an excellent actor. He looks just like Shane, but I have to strain to remember that character when he's on screen.

ETA: I do have to admit that he is acting just like you'd think somebody named Cleetus Dan Vamme would act.

I liked it. I agree that Olyphant is just fantastic in this part, and I was never a big fan of his work on Deadwood.
