Weekly TV Discussion: 11/11/2012 - 11/17/2012

Hello fellow TV addicts!  This is our weekly place to discuss any and all non-recapped shows on TV Addicts Blog.  I am a bit delayed, but I do plan on getting to Fringe, The Walking Dead and Revolution Recaps this week.  See you in the comments!

Weekly TV Discussion - 11/2/2012 - 11/10/2012

Hello TV Addicts!  Per our new tradition, here's where you can discuss any and all TV.  This week is an exception though.  Since I'll be out of town Friday through this Monday, feel free to comment on Fringe, The Walking Dead and Revolution here too.  I'll catch up when I get back!  See you in the comments! 

11/8 Update: Wasn't able to recap our usual shows but there is plenty of discussion on each of those in the comments below.  So this blog posting features discussion on the following normally recapped episodes:

Fringe: Season 5 Episode 5 - Origin Story
The Walking Dead: Season 3 Episode 4 - Killer Within
Revolution: Season 1 Episode 7 - The Children's Crusade

Revolution: Season 1 Episode 6 - Sex and Drugs

Hurricane Sandy might be able to make things inconvenient, but it can't keep a determined blogger down!  Welcome revolutionaries!  I actually never lost power last night (Cue lights to go out now) but NBC decided to alter their programming a bit.  I had to go to some standard def channel called "Nonstop" to watch last night's episode.  And actually, it was probably the best episode yet!  The show keeps improving and giving us more character moments that help us build some level of caring for some of them.  Aaron's backstory was the best yet.  I know I always tout brief recaps for this show, but this time I mean it.  Plus, the screenshots aren't going to be too good coming from a Standard Def feed! Hopefully, you'll all be able to cope!

Reminder, I've mentioned on every posting lately that I will be out of town the next couple of weekends.  So, my commentary on Fringe/The Walking Dead/Revolution will be a bit delayed and probably brief for the next 2 weeks.  Let's get into the Revolution Recap!

The Walking Dead: Season 3 Episode 3 - Walk With Me

Hello fellow Walkers!  Last night's episode was the first time that we took a detour from the main group, especially Rick.  But, it didn't make the episode any less interesting.  And obviously, the paths will eventually intersect.  There are some shady things going on in Woodbury, don't you think!?  Anyway, we'll get right into it in a second.  Just wanted to post a disclaimer on Hurricane Sandy which is starting it's path into the Northeast, where this blogger resides.   We still have power, so I should be good to get this recap up (obviously, if you're reading this then we're all good).   Watching Revolution tonight and writing about it could be a totally different story!  Of course, when mother nature decides to wreak havoc on certain parts of the world, it should be acceptable for things like blogging a TV show to take a back seat, right!?

Okay now that that's out of the way, let's blog a TV show!

Weekly TV Discussion - 10/29/2012 - 11/3/2012

Hello TV Addicts! This worked well last week so we'll keep it up.  This is a weekly posting to discuss any and all TV that is not covered in regular recaps.  (i.e. anything other than Fringe, Revolution and The Walking Dead)  I have mentioned a couple times now that I will be out of town the weekends of 11/2-11/5 (Monday too) and 11/9-11/11.  So, my commentary on those shows will be delayed during those days.  If your too anxious to wait for me, feel free to discuss those in these weekly posts as well.   Enjoy and see you in the comments!

Fringe: Season 5 Episode 4 - The Bullet That Saved the World

Okay, now THIS is what I'm talking about!  Hello fellow Fringe fans and welcome back to the show we have loved for the past few years.  Even as I was commenting on the'seemingly sub-par 3rd episode of the season, I knew they were pacing out a 13 hour movie and that the whole thing can't be non-stop intensity or even interestingness.  I know that the seeds planted in that episode will eventually pay off.  But just looking at that week alone, it certainly was a bit boring.  They more than made up for it with the 4th episode which closes Volume 1 of our 3 volume final season.  I had a feeling someone was going to bite the "bullet" in this episode, but I really didn't think until close to when it happened that they'd actually go THERE.   What a great setup for the rest of the season.  Lots to discuss in our "Observ'er'ations"on where they go from here, but for now we have to just say WOW!  Let's get into the recap!

The Walking Dead: Season 3 Episode 2 - Sick

Hello fellow TV Zombies and welcome back for another helping of The Walking Dead discussion!  We slowed things down a bit in episode 2, but not to worry, we weren't at season 2 levels of slowness. But, there was time to reflect on the new situation our band of survivors find themselves in.  No need to elaborate here.  It was a solid hour of The Walking Dead, let's recap!
