I've thought the second season has been much better than the first, so I'm probably not the best person to ask.

I will say that the last five or so episodes have been a step above, so id take a look.

I will have to check the rest of season two out when it comes out on netflix.

I'm probably one of the 8 people watching Turn, but I'm a sucker for historical dramas. The pilot wasn't bad and so far it's slow going, but I'm gonna stick it out. Half the fun is looking up so what really happened is... but learning bits and pieces about the Revolutionary war I never picked up before university.

I have it recorded. I'll see what you have to say about it later on and either start watching it or will just delete them all then.

I'll tell you this now. Even though it's been a bit draggy, I like it a lot more than the last new AMC show I tried, The Killing.

Rewatching Deadwood. Forgot how good it is. The writing, the cast is like a who's who of great veterans, the casting is uncanny. I've reranked my top 3 favorites. Six Feet Under, Deadwood, The Wire. It's a crying shame Luck got cancelled after just a season.

Deadwood was so great.  Still love The Wire the most.  I can't believe I haven't gotten around to Six Feet Under yet.  I really need to do that, I've heard.

Definitely watch 6FU. Yeah, it's a show about death but it's not that morbid, contains complex characters and in depth character development. And it can be funny at times as well. Again, another show where there is no near equivalent today although the Soloway Amazon show might come close.

Watched the first few episodes of Six Feet Under, couldn't get into it. Same with Deadwood. I'd still put Breaking Bad over all three of those.

I've tried Six Feet Under a couple times; never could get into it. The Wire is great, but I still would rather watch Breaking Bad or even Mad Men.

I keep trying to get into mad men and supernatural. I heard both shows get good after a season but I can't make it through both shows

Supernatural is great. It becomes a completely different show after the first few seasons.

Mad Men is top five best shows all time. Really incredible story-telling, writing, and pays close attention to detail.

HBO is going their own way with parts of the story. I'm dissapointed they didn't recast Sir Illyn Payne(sp) to train Jamie to fight with his off hand. Maybe they were showing how the WWs turn people?

Yes! Deadwood is one of the best series ever made!!! For some reason, I don't know a lot of people that have seen it or could appreciate it for what it is. I am definitely not anti-swearing and feel there's nothing better then using the F-word at times. But the first episode of Deadwood even made me uneasy with the language. But I did a little research online and found out that they actually did swear like that and it is historically accurate. Once I accepted the language and really started listening to the dialoge, I was amazed by how brilliant the writting is. People laugh at me, but I describe it like listening to Shakespeare with the word "motherf

It didn't happen in the books. Its a deviation from the novels, though its possible that this was a reveal from a future novel, because the showrunners know how everything ends, more or less.

    • Day 133 - Played 9 again. Driver was great, putting was better, but shots inside 100 were awful. 
    • Day 36: 15 balls, same as last few days. Then a little indoor putting.
    • hey guys, sorry about the kind of short notice, but i'm not going to be able to make it to the outing this year....  
    • Had to correct the distance - should have read 5,400 not 5,500  yds. 
    • Had to report this one - played Minnesott again today with my son.  We played behind the Friday Men's group and had a decently paced round.  My round started off par-par-bogie.  I was feeling good to be +1 through three.  Played the next two par - par and then disaster hits - well I thought it may be the unravelling of +1 through five.  Tee shot on six is a hard pull hook into the ditch separating four and six.  I know the ball is lost and re-tee - hitting three off the tee on this par five.  Long story short - what should have been at worst a bogie became a triple 8.  Now I'm +4 through six holes.  Get a solid par on seven (which I celebrated as a solid recovery hole).  Eight is a birdie and I'm back to three over.  Nine, a par 3 over water, finishes par for a 39 front.   We roll to the back to where I birdie ten (the toughest hole on the back) to be -1 after the first hole on the back, +2 for the round.  Par eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen and fifteen - that was an in the zone moment.  Have to note that fourteen - the second par 3 on the back - I hit the tee shot just short right of the flag.  Easy pitch with the 56 should put me close for a tap in par.  It does not happen - as I duff the pitch to about 3yds closer.  I reset and this time I nip it nicely only to see it land and slowly roll to the cup and drop in for a chip-in par save ( a first).   We get to sixteen and I am thinking this could be a really good round.  It's also a par 5 and I hit a solid tee shot.  I'm about 220 from the center of the green and figure I can layup with the 3w as there is a nice landing area in front of the green and it would play nicely into the typical distance I hit this club.  I'm sitting about 50 yds from the flag to the right hand side.  I overcook the 56 and see the ball bounce off the back of the turtle green.  I hit an easy 56 again to see the ball roll to the other side of the green.  Long story it became a 3putt double.  Now I am +4 through sixteen.  The last two holes are solid pars - one an up and down, the other a GIR two putt. Finished the back 1 over at 37.  Total score is a 76!  A new personal best.  Best "all around" play through the bag to date.
