Just finished Those About to Die, and it reinforced my utter appreciation for HBO’s Rome.

Just finished Those About to Die, and it reinforced my utter appreciation for HBO’s Rome. While TATD had some neat racing and gladiatorial scenes, it ultimately seemed rather bland in comparison to 2005’s Rome. The story arc about Tenax being blackmailed by Ursus, and getting the shit kicked out of him because Tenax learned to fight in the streets and Ursus in the legions. Then they turn right around at the end of the season and have…

One show that was like that for me was The Adventures of Briscoe County Jr. which originally aired on FOX in 1993-94, but which I did not get to know until it was rerun on TNT. The Adventures of Brisco …

Is it weird that The X-Files is my “comfort” show?

( www.reddit.com )

Is it weird that The X-Files is my “comfort” show? X-Files seems like a pretty unconventional choice for a comfort show, given how dark, creepy and downright gross it can get at times but honestly that’s what it’s become for me. Maybe it’s the fact that I first started watching it in the 90s as a child, and associate with those warm, carefree and nostalgic times. That, coupled with the overall s…
