plenzmd1 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 You know what show is garbage? Benders on IFC. It's supposed to be about guys playing beer league hockey but the hockey is just incidental and it's mostly just a dumb, badly written sitcom. Surprisingly bad considering Dennis Leary is an executive producer. I had a lot of hope for this show. The locker room of a bunch of beer leaguers who've played together for years should be fertile ground for comedy. Now that this show died mercifully after 8 episodes no one will make another. loved that show, thought it was very funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LB3 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) Idiotsitter on Comedy Central is hilarious. Jillian Bell is funny as hell. Channing Tatum was great in his guest appearance this week. Edited February 7, 2016 by LBSeeBallLBGetBall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Poojer Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I'm caught up on this season, so far, not their strongest, loved will sasso, though too bad he flamed out . Deb and Carl are super annoying, that whole teachers buying guns thing was way too contrived  Got that right but it was odd that Josh never appeared in that episode also I also assumed he was Jewish or is his sister not?Deb and Carl are better in small doses IMHO.

Just Jack Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Thanks for the tip on Angie Tribeca. Saw the first episode and it was very funny. I can tell that once they find the right comedic tone, it's going to be a hit. I've seen a few episodes now, it reminds me of Police Squad.

plenzmd1 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I know this is kinda lame, but American Experience has been great last two weeks. Â The Mine Wars was exceptional , and for as much harm as I believe unions did to Buffalo in the 70's and 80's, this documentary will make you thankful these guys in West Virginia had the balls to stand up the mine owners. You will not believe this story takes place in the USA only 100 years ago. Â Also the one the assassination and presidency of James Gardield. I just did not know much about him/ the story. Done a little different than typical American Experience, but very good. Â Did not see last nights yet on Leopold and Loeb, be up next. Â PBS runs everything 100 times... I highly recommend both of these shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drives me up the friggin' wall. Â If you check out the IMDB page, Hitler gets a screen credit for it. He's second on the cast list. In fact, he has 819 screen credits as "himself," which makes perfect sense, but feels very odd nonetheless... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I'll have to see if that show with Gyp Rosetti is on HBO streaming service, otherwise it's a no-go.  I've been enjoying two automotive shows on mondays:  Fast'n'Loud ( GET YOU SOME-A THAT!)  and Diesel Brothers  Funny AND informative.
