F&G; is just such a well balanced show.  perfect mix of comedy, nostalgia, touching moments.

the episode where Neil is riding his bike around with the garage door opener looking for his dad is heartbreaking.

Yea, in the novel they are slow zombies. A ton of fans of WWZ are having a huge problem with this change; however, nothing churns my stomach more than a group of fast zombies coming at me at full spee

Yea, that was a great episode. Dead Dogs and Gym Teachers has that same sort of heartbreaking vibe to it. Each episode is a gem in its own way.

I dunno if you've seen Undeclared , but I sort of describe it as methadone for Freaks and Geeks junkies. It wasn't nearly as good, but it was a decent respite from the loss of F+G. Lots of the same actors, same writers, and directors. Plus, it aired when I was a freshman in college so it was extra nostalgic for me.

If you liked "The Office", try "The Thick of it". It's similar, but in a political setting.

I watched the first episode of 'The Following' which stars Kevin Bacon.  It airs on Fox, Monday evenings.  It was pretty decent... I went in with very low expectations and came out after the first episode with some real interest to see how they keep this show moving forward.  Did anyone else see it?  What did you think?

I watched The Following on Hulu today, and I'm pretty excited to watch the next episode. I didn't expect much, but it kept my interest very well. That's what happens when fog ruins my PGA TOUR viewing on a Saturday, lol.

I've enjoyed watching Suits since it came on the air. It's not the best show in the world, but for some reason I always enjoy it. So that's nice.

Just watched the 2nd episode of 'The Following' on Fox.  This show is legit... I'm liking it.  If you are looking for a quality show to watch during the slow winter season, it's definitely worth a watch.

Not sure if anyone watches Community , but on Sunday's telecast Nick Faldo described Tiger's game as "streets ahead." #SixMajorsAndAMovie? Also, October 19th is in nine days.

I just finished season five of the Office. Love this show! It has me rolling on the floor. I'm downloading season six right now.

So, Jamo, you'd say after season seven it's not worth watching anymore?

Well, Michael leaves at the end of season 7. They managed a few nice/touching moments towards the end of his run, if you can get past the awful writing for Will Ferrell's character. It is, though, without a doubt the worst season with Michael. Season 8 was a steaming pile of poo. I watched the whole thing because I love the show and the characters are still interesting. It's clear they tried to write, well, I won't give away who they replace Michael with if you don't know, but they tried to write him as "Michael-lite" and it didn't really work. The only bright spot was Erin, who was probably the funniest character that season. IIRC, Pam isn't in something like half the episodes, which kinda sucked. Season 9, the last one, has been solid so far. The guy who adapted the British version for TV and who was the showrunner for a while, Greg Daniels, came back this year. Not sure if that's been what's keeping it watchable, but it is better. If you've gotten that far I'd say just watch them all (if only so you can watch the ending of season 9 and know what's going on), but the best seasons are definitely behind you.

So any of you watching 'The Following' yet?  Am I the only regular on here watching it?   You guys are missing a pretty good show...  It kind of reminds me of the movie Seven for some reason?

The music/score is awesome.  Especially when they sneak in songs from epic bands like Massive Attack:

Or the Deftones...

If you like the spy genre, check out The Americans . I finished House of Cards and it is awesome, especially if you like political dramas. If The Following is using such great music, Mezzanine is one of my all time favorite albums, I'll try a couple of episodes, as soon as I catch up with Justified .

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
