anyone else watch this? i think it's amazing. i'm getting the sense that i'd do well to start devoting the time to watch the sopranos/24/lost, but i feel like i'll never catch up.

i've also been spending a lot of time in my girlfriends sorority house lately, so the polygamy vibe has been a source of much humor.

I was going to start watching it, but then I noticed it has the Sevigny whore in it, so didn't bother.

I've been watching it, too - pretty good stuff!

What do you have against Chloe Sevigny, Doofy (out of curiosity)?

Sucking wiener for a paycheque (Brown Bunny) makes her a whore. I ain't fond of whores, so she managed to get herself onto my boycott list.

Don't know who Chloe Sevigny is in the show, but the show is very well done.

Ranks up there with 6 feet under and Sopranos in my book...

Okay, then... :shrugs:

It's just sex...hardly something to get that worked up about, IMO. But, to each his own.

I haven't watched Big Love, although I've been told it is very good. The last HBO show that really hooked me was Rome, and I hope they bring it back. I liked both Deadwood and Carnivale, but for some reason that I'm not sure of, I just stopped watching them both. Now it's tough to get back into them. I guess I'll need to queue up the DVDs on netflix. The Sopranos I watch more out of habit than anything else.

As for Big Love, maybe I should give it a chance. Thank goodness for i-control. At least with that I can start back at the beginning. Now I just need to find the time.

And Chloe can suck whatever she pleases, what do I care? I've thought her a good actress since I first saw her (in Kids, I believe).

shrew the off-camera antics of Chloë, she's amazing in this series. if you have HBO on demand, i'd recommend spending the time to catch up with this show. i love it. don't know why, but i do.

Lost, Battlestar Galactica, Sopranos and Big love are pretty much all I watch with the exception of headline news...

Lost seems to be consistantly a fun ride.

We got HBO just for the Sopranos this season. We also use Netflix to watch all of the shows. I'm starting season 3 of 24 now. We're watching Lost on Tivo. I'll have to catch up on Desperate Housewives once we finish 24. Too many shows!

Er…I don't think that was a joke. She sucked the director's pole on-camera in Brown Bunny, which is what I assume Doofy doesn't like.

Anyway, if that isn't enough to make you lose all respect for her, just consider how she dresses.
