I did and I loved it. Really good show. Looking forward to watching as it kind of advances and everyone settles into their roles. Danson is hilarious.

I watched the pilot and the 2nd episode and can't really get into it. It has its moments but it is really really slow.

When was the second episode? I missed that.

I watched an HBO screener that leaked. I watch most of my TV illegally on the intarwebs.

Just announced that they're writing Jennifer Morrison (Cameron) out of the show. Bah, she was my favorite character.

I was ticked that they got House out of the asylum in only one episode. That had a lot of potential.

Seriously?

I love House but the new team blows. Especially without Kal Penn.

Survivor may have its most racist competitor yet this season, for anyone who watches.
The "Billionaire Oil Man"? I only watched the first episode, but he didn't seem racist. Possibly sexist. But if anything, an absolute, arrogant, a**hole.
But it will make for entertaining TV.
I enjoy Russell... he's just cocky like you said. I'm actually referring to Brett, someone else on his tribe.
[SHOW]
During an immunity challenge, he "tripped" a black player (though kicked is more like it) and got thrown out of the challenge. Then, when the other tribe got to send someone to the other team's tribal council as a scout (they sent a black woman), he called her ghetto trash and tells her to go back to eating ketchup sandwiches and drinking Kool-Aid.

I liked it. I also liked Modern Family.

New SNL cast member Jenny Slate accidentally dropped the F bomb in her first ever sketch last night.
