It seems quite popular, at school and on the internet. But we really started watching it b/c my dad wanted to. My siblings aren’t allowed to see it, for good reason. If violence and nudity bother you at all(and the F word too) I wouldn’t bother. And even though It’s set in a fantasy universe, it’s medieval fantasy, and women and children are treated accordingly. This doesn’t bother me, because it’s quite believable, and some strong forceful women(Daenerys Targaryen) and children(Arya and Bran Stark) definitely develop into bad-@$$es throughout the show/books. Characters are not to be attached to, as you never know when someone will die. You win, or you die!! But, if you aren’t easily disturbed and love grounded fantasy, I’d recommend it to anyone above the age of 15.
Yeah, I have heard of it. It does seem super popular.
Yeah, I had heard of it. But I didn’t know anything about it until I got into it myself. I find it disgraceful, however, that people compare Martin’s works to those of Tolkein. Martin obviously has a very bleak view of life. And I certainly do not commend him for that. We need heroes. We need someone to display honor. But, I’ll stop. That’s more suited for the book thread. ![]()
I wish I could see more Phineas and Ferb! I miss out since I don’t have cable. Wait, but I forgot about Netflix…[size=85]oh yeah, never mind. [/size] I like what I’ve seen.
I think I won’t go back to Big Bang. I used to like some things, but the more that I think about it, the turn-offs in it for me don’t make up for it. I’ve already seen enough episodes anyway. At least I caught some Pixar references from it. shrugs
I’m actually thinking of becoming a brony now.
I’ll be honest, I am not a fan of Big Bang Theory. It seems to be a topic of hot debate among people IRL, so I usually don’t discuss it. But, I don’t like it. I guess it just isn’t my taste.
However, I love Phineas and Ferb! I love all the child-like creativity and all the characters. I loved those time travel episodes. ![]()
Yeah, I agree. I used to hate Big Bang before I saw it. Then I didn’t mind some things, but other parts just totally went against what I believe. But then I thought I could overlook it for a while for some reason. It was a weird phase,
I honestly don’t know what I saw in it exactly. I think I was just stressed from my ridiculous school, I do crazy things when I’m stressed…but I’m just done with it now.
The only times I got to see P&F were at my grandma’s house and sometimes at the hotels when we were Disneyland vacation. That was all. So I really wish I could watch a lot more of it. I love what I’ve seen!
I don’t regularly watch Phineas and Ferb, but I’ve enjoyed all the episodes I’ve seen!
I’m obsessed with Phineas and Ferb. Which stinks sometimes because I don’t get Disney Channel on TV and have to wait for all the episodes to come online. ![]()
Ah. It’s the only current Disney Channel program I can bear to sit through.

Haven’t you seen Gravity Falls?
No. Whenever Disney Channel is turned on I leave the room, so I haven’t seen any of the newer shows.
I don’t really have shows to watch. I’m not interested in most, so if one even catches my attention in even just a few aspects of the show, I’ll watch it. Sometimes I stop though, like I recently did with Big Bang. I kind of like this show called Outnumbered. The kids in it just don’t let up or give their parents a break! It’s cute and very casual, but I don’t think many people know about it. I’m less picky with shows than I am with movies because I almost never watch TV.
I also liked Arthur on PBS, but once I noticed most of the character’s voices changing, I also noticed the episodes not quite being what they used to be. But I did think that was pretty good for at least 10 years, especially the oldest episodes! Same thing happened with The Simpsons to an extent. Sometimes I try to watch and there are some episodes I really liked that made me crack up. And others I just didn’t like. The only ones I really dislike are the Treehouse of Terror episodes
. Like I said, I like a lot of the episodes, but I haven’t seen the show for a long time.
Most of my favorite shows don’t come on anymore. My favorite show was The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh - <3
. And I liked The Emperor’s New School. Even if they did re-use the same jokes quite a bit, it was still fairly enjoyable. And I watched Lilo and Stitch: The Series. Sometimes I didn’t like some of the episodes (mostly the way Pleakley was acting and other things like Myrtle and friends sometimes), but I mostly just watched for Stitch and Rueben (625) and because a lot of the “cousins” were so cute. However, those two I just mentioned I only got to see once every Saturday, which also means they were frequently repeated
. And eventually, they just stopped airing altogether. I’ll have to start watching TV on Netflix now, I guess, which even that I’ve only had for less than a year.
OMG loved Arthur. Still watch it with my siblings sometimes. ![]()
I LOVED the oldest Arthur episodes! And I still liked the ones after that. Now, I think they’re…at least fine. They’re not bad. I just loved the old ones to death is all, I laughed a lot at those ones!
It’s mostly just that I think Arthur and D.W. complain a lot now when before I always cracked up at what they had to say. Did you know Arthur’s dad and Binky Barnes are the same voice? Couldn’t believe it when I found that out! ![]()
I did not know that. There is one episode, Carl and the missing Puzzle Peice, which is about Asperger’s syndrome.
I did see that one. I liked it among the others that were coming out around that time. It made me wonder if I have Asperger’s. I don’t think I have exactly that, but I do have my issues, probably just a bunch of OCDs.
There’s one with Mrs. MacGrady having cancer. It was good, but for some reason that was the only episode they played all week when it first came out. I like how the show is not about teaching kids school subjects, but real-life problems we deal with everyday.
I agree! It’s much more applicable. You learn math at school, you don’t want the Television telling you about it.
Outnumbered’s hilarious. I think it’s maybe become a bit less funny in the later series, with the kids getting older, but it’s still good. Apparently they’re making a U.S. version.
The Following
Bates Motel
The Walking Dead
Those are the shows that are still going on that I watch, though The Walking Dead Season 3 just ended and Season 4 doesn’t start till October, next week’s episode of The Following is the Season Finale (luckily its getting a Season 2) and Bates Motel has about 4 episodes left of its season but that show is getting a Season 2 as well.

[size=85]The Dukes ain’t got nothing on this.[/size]
I have plans to pick up the new Hawaii Five 0 again after leaving it off at the Season 2 premiere. Got lotsa episodes to catch up on. ![]()
