This is a thread about the TV shows you're watching, but specifically shows that are still running. No reruns and such.
This is what I've been watching:
Arrested Development The Big Bang Theory Hannibal Mad Men The Walking Dead
I think it's very cool that Netflix is not only starting to make product of their own (House of Cards, Arrested Development) but that they actually release ALL episodes of a season rather than do one episode on a weekly basis. I think this is the right step for Netflix to take. It's hard enough for them to obtain rights to previous TV shows and movies by other companies that want more money, so this is a genius move for them and I look forward to how that expands.

Arrow on the CW and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TV 2012 series) on Nickelodeon (Actually I watch it on Amazon Prime Instant Video). Someways I enjoyed it more than the original cartoon mainly because I think the writing is better.

Just finished a Sopranos re-watch. Currently first-watching The Wire and Breaking Bad.
So my current roster fits right in with 2013!

Haha, want me to change it?
Quick backstory: I was going through my late uncle's things a couple of years ago and I found a newspaper article he clipped because the photo and caption made him laugh.
The photo is below. The caption: "Presidentall(sic) hopeful Pat Buchanan talks as "Stinky" the clown, also known as Rex Ratzlaff, keeps track of time at the Old Settler's Parade in Maxwell, Iowa."
I find it funny, but I can certainly change it. Don't wanna give anybody nightmares!
EDIT: Changed to something more aesthetically pleasing to the eye...ME!

Currently battling a head cold (Thanks, 4 year old neph, for sneezing right in my face) so I'm binging some old Best of the Worst episodes.
Tonight my greatest challenge will be whether to watch the newest Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode (which features the debut of the new host Emily) or the season premiere of The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs.

S4.E9 of The Wire, S5.E4 of Breaking Bad.
At one point I was going ep for ep between the two shows, but then I got off kilter when the Frame Work podcast chaps FORCED me to also pick up The Sopranos for a re-watch and I decided for a couple of weeks I wanted to concurrently watch the two great anti-heroes of The Golden Age of Television.

Last batch of Ozark episodes went up today. I’ll be checking those out.
Lot of good shows going on at the moment. Better Call Saul off to a grand start of their last season.

I will probably start watching Ozark tonight, take a break for the return of Joe Bob Briggs' show, then knock the rest of it out over the weekend.
How will Ozark turn out? Will Laura Linney last through an entire 4 season series without smiling or telling a joke? Will someone turn a light on in their house? I can't wait to find out.

Ozark has been on my list for so long, I really need to get on that now that it's wrapping up.
This week I finally jumped into Barry and binged both seasons. Hader is phenomenal. Was not expecting it to be THIS good.

I didn't quite like Barry as much as some (I remain lukewarm on Sally, everything else is excellent) but the S3 premiere is great.
Also, ditto Molt on Better Call Saul. The first 3 eps this season have been outstanding.

Sally is really hard to get a read on. I liked her a lot through S1, but since the back half of S2 I'm a little put off by what an asshole she can be at the drop of a hat.

Right?!? The other reason I've let The Wire lag a little is I'm starting to dread getting to the end of it and having no more fresh Wire ahead of me, whereas with BrBa I know Better Call Saul is in the hopper.

Same reason I was flatter on Barry than most. Aside from Gene the characters on the actory side of Barry's life are pretty dull.

The Wire has a 5th season!
Wait, you know that. I'm dumb.
Anyway, Simon just released a new cop show set in Baltimore starring Jon Bernthal.

Agreed about the people on the actor-side. But NoHo Hank has grown on me significantly.

Currently watching MOON KNIGHT (which, yeah, has its own thread) and OUTER RANGE on Prime.
The latter is good, though not great. Essentially YELLOWSTONE mashed up with X-FILES and a smattering of TWIN PEAKS to boot. I'm kind of a Brolin stan, so I'm in for the duration.

BETTER CALL SAUL is the best thing on right now. That’s all I have to say.
