I'm definitely curious whether you'll be a 3/1/4/2/5 Man or (like me) a 4/2/3/1/5 Man.

I'm a 1/2/3/4/5 Man, m'self.
What can I say, I'm easy.

Switch 3 and 1 around and I've got the same order as you. Funny really, because 2 and 4 were the two series that I initially (i.e. first couple of episodes) found hard to get into.

For me, season 1 (while very, very good) lacked the larger context to some extent - it lacked the kind of hook that "Hamsterdam" was for me. In some ways, it was "all this and more" compared to season 1.
It also took me a while to get into season 2, but once I did I found it intensely affecting. Especially the ending of the penultimate episode. Amazingly effective film-making. I envy Scots for having his first time in front of him.

I watched anime Gilgamesh. Worth my time, except the unattractive ending.
Now i'm on to House 1-5 seasons. ^_^ I like that guy. I'm like him more or less.

In what ways, because he's a jerk and everyone wants to punch him in the mouth. Not that I don't like House mind you.
Am I the only one watching Chuck?

I like Chuck, though we've only seen Season 1 over here so far.

I regularly watch Chuck. It's so corny and the writing sometimes hurts me internally but it's hard to say that as a negative point, since it's totally supposed to be a piece of cheese. It's entertaining. And the chick is hot. And they blow stuff up.
The show that I'm trying to get into is Parks and Recreation, but goddamnit they're not making it easy. I get it, the humor is similar to The Office, hahaha, but I do feel like they could've tried harder. It's like when they were pitching ideas one of them said, "How about Michael Scott... BUT A WOMAN!"
I mentioned in another thread that The Loop has an amazing first season with seven episodes, but the second season isn't even worth it (I got like ten minutes in and gave up) and after FOX executives "restructured" the show they decided to cancel it. LAJSDFLKASJFDLKSDJAF
The Riches, that was a pretty cool show. I still haven't made it far in the second season, and a friend tells me that they lost their way there, but the first season definitely kept me engaged.

yeh, if Chuck was realistic, they'd all have been shot twice in the back of the head many times over by now. It's awesome though (yeh, that's plagiarism). I can't wait for the season finale, this weeks episode was just...awesome.
It'll be sad if NBC doesn't renew it. Maybe it'll end up like Leave It To Beaver or Scrubs, where a different network picks them up.
