I recommend American Horror Story.

I'll second that.  The wife and I got totally addicted to it this past season.  Very soap opera like, but a lot more fun.

Tim, did you know that next season they're going to have a completely different cast in a different house?  I guess they'll be doing that each season.

I heard that, and I also heard that some fans are a little miffed about that.  I think it is a great way to keep those watching guessing as to what is going on with new characters every season.  I'm down for it.  :)

Did anyone catch "Big Bang Theory" last week?  They were playing Settlers of Catan.  And yes, they used the jokes we've been laughing at for years.

Here's a link to watch the full episode:

Just watched Man in the High Castle episode 1 on Amazon Prime. Really enjoyed it but you need an Amazon Prime subscription.

Based of of Phillip K Dick novel about an alternate earth where the Axis won and divided the USA.

I watched Dark Matter on Netflix and I'm digging it.  I want to watch Killjoys next as everyone seems to say that it is a bit better than Dark Matter.  They have a little Firefly vibe to them.

If there are any "Evil Dead" fans out there, you MUST watch "Ash vs. the Evil Dead".  Bruce Campbell is still groovy.
