Also that pic has more Bosworth confirmed. :datass:

strawberry float yeah. Let us take this opportunity to once again marvel at the glorious opening sequence.



And the wonderful original score, which still hasn't gotten an official release.



Edit: Actually it got released three days ago I just discovered. :shock: :mrgreen:

It's been a good first couple of episodes. Always nice to see where they've ended up and Bosworth as usual is awesome.

Loving Joe's new look too. Very Jobs :D

So this season is progressing along quite nicely.

Plenty of Super Mario Bros in this episode which was awesome too.

It was good to see Joe being the one getting shafted, then immediately strawberry floating them over by admitting it was Gordon who designed the original anti-virus. Then there's the whole, does he have AIDS, doesn't he thing going on.

Cameron is beginning to annoy me now. Her angsty, counter-culture petulance is a bit grating after three seasons of it. Hopefully they do something actually interesting with her soon. Though she also hates Water levels in SMB so there's hope for her yet.

Gordon really just seems to be there now, though I'm assuming it'll focus back on him once his illness gets worse.

Donna continues to be the only sensible one out of the lot of them.

Episode 7 - This show continues to be excellent. I think this might be my favourite one so far.

Cameron finally getting the boot. Thank strawberry float. I hate that she's almost portrayed as the main character in a lot of ways, as I'm finding Donna far more likable.
It was heartbreaking to see Bos stick that final knife in her though. I'm sure she'll come up with some way of getting back into Mutiny or setting up some other equally pie-in-the-sky counter-culture shite.

Good to see Gordon getting something to do. I'll always enjoy the love/hate bromance between him and Joe. The moment when Joe was giving him the complicated discussion about what each of the keys were for. :lol:

Ryan being an idiot. :fp:
So basically he thinks that Joe was going to stiff him out of his plans, which he looks like he now will as a result.


Not that anyone else seems to be watching or talking about this at all, but do we know how well it's doing? Will we be leaving season 3 once again expecting it to get cancelled?

The show just keeps getting better and better.

It's been doing terrible ratings wise, like always. We all thought it was would have been cancelled seasons ago but here we are so who knows. I could definitely see someone like Netflix saving it if AMC do cut it. Wouldn't be the first time either, they did with The Killing.

Yeah it was another great episode.

I end every season of this with the same feeling. That I've enjoyed every minute of it, but that it's not going to get renewed. It basically means I won't be too disappointed if it does, and really happy if it's not. :D

An exceptional end to an exceptional season. So happy it'll get to finish on its own terms. A TV miracle if ever there was one.

Yeah I thought it was a good ending for the season.

I thought the time jump was a little bit jarring though. It almost felt like they knew they were only getting one more season and had to move things forward.

But I think it might have been my favourite season so far. Solid storyline and some great moments.
