Always Sunny is something that one of our editors Kofi Outlaw turned me on to a couple of weeks ago and I’ve been trying to find time in my schedule to see more of it. Thankfully, the season 1 and 2 DVD sets are on sale at a local used DVD outfit and I plan on acquiring them to catch up.

Thanks for your input!

I am the host and creator of a podcast network on the web that specializes in the review of TV and Feature Films as well. We’re 5-year veterans of the podcast game and have a nice archive of both online at 2GuysTalking.Com.

I’ve also start converting my articles here at Screen Rant (and other writing endeavours I participate in) into podcasts as well.

Thanks for your question and your participating here in the Screen Rant Discussion area. It’s great to have you!

do you have a podcast about transformers or a movie podcast or something? i thought i saw something on iTunes about a transformers podcast with your name on it.

FF, The Office, Always Sunny and Community

Again, my thanks for your input!

Thanks for your input “Sylar’s Hunger Continues”

I appreciate all of it and look forward to your input here weekly as well as from your friends and cohorts in television appreciated.

I’m even more elated that there is someone else that is “hooked” like I am on the program. While it’s “based on a book” I’m going to go check out the book(s) after it’s done with it’s run on the tube. Your backstory comment is particularly insightful.

Again, thanks for your input and it’s great to be “engaged” with others. Cheers!

Okay this is Screen Rant, I had to rant about something.

The show absolutely engaged me. I set my timer for a two-hour premiere (too lazy to look in advance) and they packed more into this 44 minutes than most doubled offerings.

Bruce’s post makes me feel that my predictions or theories are irrelevant.

How great for a show with weird personal visions to *repeat* the vision rather than having people scan back and watch again. (We will anyway.)

How refreshing, after individuals on LOST could have put patterns and pieces together, and never did–is a show where they actually communicate and compile information. The speed in which this is all discovered stretches credulity–but only momentarily.

Questions include “can they change the future despite their visions?” What of this question–are they being manipulated create what they’ve seen?

The interrelationships of visions are an awesome idea!

I didn’t follow the hype, and at a few points, especially the sports stadium scene, I thought, “Hmm, this scene wasn’t leaked or previewed.”

I also liked the previews for the series, and felt that they didn’t spoil MUCH. What these scenes did, in addition to the fresh, smart, compact 42 minutes that preceded, is tell people, this ain’t your father’s LOST. Even those of us that are bigtime fans of the Oceanic 815 peeps, are probably NOT up for another series telescoping questions and obscenely Lucy-Yanks-the-Football answers.

Even with the April Date, I know that this series has points of culmination and Will Deliver Answers. Depending on the nature of the blackouts and visions, maybe some sort of Reset Button or new blackout will happen each season.

I’m liking how the implications of a worldwide blackout are depicted and explored. I’m glad there were people on screen throwing out questions about stats–such as mothers giving birth. I didn’t catch what happened to the patient in the operating room–but have the impression that the OR crew didn’t waste much time and attention on the patient.

Speaking of LOST, I remember scenes like the disintegrating airplane and the engine slowing and speeding. Those first minutes of the show are tatooed in my skull. Go ahead, pile on the special effects for those first key scenes. Do all you can to grab the attention, and spend VERY LITTLE backstory, warm & tender private moments time. Get on with the mystery solving, and the questions that arise.

I’m hooked, big time.

I’m worried that there are only 22 comments up to this point. Great shows seem to get a bigger buzz.

B: That would be a pickle, knowing something that will take place at some point in time. I’d only hope I would be reading the lottery results during my black out!

But more importantly,

C: How did the teens “on the couch” end up clothed when they woke up?????

Being the strange person I am, I did look it up on Wikipedia and it seems you wouldn’t be spoiling anything by reading it (unless you planned on reading the book). From what I gather, the TV show has simply taken the concept and run with it, I get the feeling that the TV show is building towards it being a conspiracy of sorts, the whole thing orchestrated by some group or something, which, according to Wiki, doesn’t happen at all in the book, but is in fact all explained right at the beginning.

Even still, on the off chance they incorporate anything else of the book into the show, I’m gonna go ahead and not say much else.
