Slightly shamed to say I have only just watched the pilot episode for Breaking Bad - but Wow! THE best pilot I have ever seen for any TV show. It got my thinking, what is everyones favourite pilot TV episode on here?
it airs on Showtime, Sunday nights, similar to "24" but deals w/ Homeland Security, Claire Dannes stars, good is relative, but yes, it is gaining momentum & finding its footing/foundation.
I'm not sure why, however British TV is really awful. Not sure what it is like over there but here prime time TV on the largest channels includes repeats of shows from 2009, thats prime time! No money in TV here.
man, ending to season 1 is amazing. Best show ever written. Thats why TV is better than film at the moment.
I love Breaking Bad!
Homeland, filmed in Charlotte NC had a fine reception at the Golden Globes last night. Seen it?
I've not heard of it however I am in the UK - so we get everything 6 months later than you guys. Although I usually watch them all online anyway.

I'm not sure what the problem is. There are other people from the UK that may know though... I just wish we had a channel like HBO.
Other people on here from the UK is what I meant, obviously.
4od is the best thing we have and thats because how i met your mother and the big bang theory are on there.
4od is a clear winner aye. They make some really good docs too - but they all have the same formula, and narrator it seems.
The fact the government got rid of the UK film council - who funded independent films here - kind of tells you all you need to know really.
Curt, Cheers was brilliant. Fraiser was brilliant too - but cannot remember the pilot for it...
