to be honest, the emmys is a joke..the nominations are predictable and boring. Some shows are there deservedly but some aren't. The good wife should be there for best drama and not downtown abbey( I stopped that one after the third season as I believe it's gone downhill). The good wife was so old last season it would compete with breaking bad and true detective. yeah it was that good last season. The particular episode that was submitted for emmy nom " hit the fan" is as good as Breaking bad " ozymandias" episode( this was actually the best episode of breaking bad that year in my opinion: others were good too).
I love true detective and all but breaking bad shiits on it.

Aladdin is one of my favourite...he's such a legend.

RayMcBlue: Nominees

Woody Harrelson didn't earn as much fanfare for "True Detective" as McConaughey, but he has a strong history with the TV academy, winning one Emmy (1989 Comedy Supporting Actor, 'Cheers') out of seven nominations. If "Detective" is a big Emmy success, expect Harrelson to go along for the ride. He gets 12/1 odds.

Poor Jon Hamm doesn't have a single Emmy to show for his 11 nominations to date, including six in this category for AMC's " Mad Men ." But despite the show's diminishing returns – it hasn't won a trophy since 2011 – Hamm still gets 16/1 odds.

James Spader also has odds of 16/1. He's already a three-time winner in this category for playing attorney Alan Shore on "The Practice" and "Boston Legal," and he's a strong bet to return for his latest role in NBC's surprise hit " The Blacklist ."

Hmmm...I can't remember James Spader getting nominated though..

RayMcBlue: True Detective’ Season 2 Update: First Script In; Rumors About New Lead

Late last week, a big step was taken forward for True Detective season 2. Series creator Nic Pizzolatto reportedly turned in the script for the first episode of the new season, and the lead for this new storyline is not what we’d heard it might be. In the months since the first season finished, we’d heard rumors suggesting various new directions, from redoing the two-detective structure of the first season, to relying upon a more female-centric cast. Now, it turns out, at least the first episode just centers on one male lead. The rumor came from The Wrap , who posted it as a Twitter exclusive:

"The 1st script for 2nd season is IN
& agency sources tell us it features one
MALE lead & male/female co-stars."

Does this confirm True Detective won’t have a female lead? Not at all. If the first season taught us anything, it’s that Pizzolatto thrives on the unexpected. Who is to say the main character of the first episode stays the main character, stays good, or even survives?
I still think anything is possible with this show, which is exactly why fans are so excited about it. With the first script completed, we now can make an educated guess at Pizzolatto’s timeline. You’d imagine he would complete the scripts by the late Fall, maybe casting and production in early 2015 and a potential air date Fall 2015. That’s just a guess but it seems feasible.

HBO execs are looking into Colin Farrell and Taylor kitsch plus two female leads...I remember Jessica Chastain was linked with it one time. Collin Farrell I can manage but I haven't seen anything serious from Taylor kitsch( I didn't watch Friday Night Lights like most people)..

Rectify...
Is anyone watching "rectify" here? Such a good show...it's quiet in a way but it keeps you interested. If you like that sorta things

mployer: 39 goals in 88 matches, is that impressive?

In a team Messi scores 2/4 of the goals.. If you don't have any meaning post, how about not posting? I hope you can manage that.

After Özil I shouldn't be surprised but heck....it's so unreal, I'm buzzing!
Good job Wenger, Gazidis, Dick Law..now get Khedira or Bender or Schneiderlin, a GK, a striker is OK too...
Buzzing....

Ray McBlue: Loved Criminal Minds. Stopped watching the series at season 4 though. Spencer Reid and the gang...

You got it! I dumped the show after the 4th season, typical example of one of those shows that's past their time...this being S4!

Ray McBlue: Packed with symbolism, psychology, and serial murder, the HBO show True Detective has inspired countless theories about the true identity of the Yellow King—the ringleader behind the mysterious cult responsible for the murder and sexual abuse of multiple women and children across Louisiana. So who could be behind it all? A politician? A police cover-up? A one-off character? Even one of our two protagonists? Theories abound about the true identity of the King and his conspirators; as the final episodes of the the story unfold, here are my favorites.
-Rustin Cohle
-Marty Hart
-The Lawnmower Guy
-Governor Tuttle
-Maggie's Dad

I never thought of Maggie's dad or even Marty as the yellow king...nerve, there was no clue directing to that! At some point I was beginning to tip Rust. The lawn mower, Ledoux, Governor turtle and the painter....well connected to each other. The show is so well written.
As for emmys, the show entered in the drama category which is real competition considering breaking bad final season. I think they would sweep the miniseries category had they chosen that. Fargo is doing something wise in that aspect(entering as miniseries).

Ray McBlue: Memorable Quotes
-"Past a certain age, a man without a family can be a bad thing."
-"Rust'd pick a fight with the sky, he didn't like its shade of blue."
[color=#009900]-"Oh, I was just a regular type dude... with a big-ass dick."[/color]
-"You got a chapter in one of those books on jumping to conclusions? You attach an assumption to a piece of evidence, you start to bend the narrative to support it. Prejudice yourself."
-"You know the good years when you're in them, or do you just wait for them until you get ass cancer and realize that the good years came and went? Because there's a feeling that -- you might notice it sometime -- that this feeling like life has slipped through your fingers. Like the future is behind you."
[color=#009900]-"Remember what I said about the detective's curse? The solution to my whole life was right under my nose. That woman. Those kids. And I was watching everything else. See, infidelity is one kind of sin, but my true failure was inattention. I understand that now."[/color]

Marty's! The one about Rust could pick a fight with the sky is helps funny, plus "I'm just a regular type dude...that one is golden!

Amazing show! Reading those lines, I remember Rust in his twisted smart mind saying them.Marty had some great ones too.

Iceman296: I love Frank Gallagher, so so Natural. He cracks me up when he starts that his self sermon. Debbie is one smart girl, with carl too.

Currently in S2.

I love the show, the imperfection and life struggles...the just concluded season(4) is the best yet.

naijababe: You can can read many meanings into that move namely:
Protecting Alex from going back to a life of crime and from Kubra
She thinks she's lost everyone, she does not want to lose Alex too.
Do you know that the real life Kubra is a Nigerian heavyweight politician now?

I don't think she was protecting Alex, even though that seems to be the context the writers will follow, I don't agree. Piper is so self-serving,she's lonely at the moment. I think she wants Alex in lithfield for company and as her prison wife. When she told Nichols she wasn't trying to make things all about her, I tried so hard to believe her by I couldn't.

Nigerians voted for real life Kubra? Poor country! I always thought Kubra is a Latina.

mkmyers45: yessssssssss oo.......Miss Rosa is a boss

Season 2 is good didn't really get me care about the inmates like season 1 did but I enjoyed Miss Rosa really..."Always so rude, that one". I want Fig as an inmate next season, gonna be some tasty storyline. Someone can create a thread for the show.

James Rodriguez is a star in the making, he's the Özil of this tournament. Cuadrado is an interesting player too.

all4naija: Has anybody checked out ' Arctic Monkeys '? I think they are cool!

Arctic Monkeys is a good band...They are indie too you know? You just don't like some slow indie bands.
If you are a fan of Arctic Monkeys check Foals and Kasabian out too..they are cool indie bands from the UK just like Arctic Monkeys.

I saw it yesterday and I was on the edge of my seat, had my heart all through..no dialogue, and still delivered. Amazing!
Great performance too.
People should watch this!

dinachi: Stop pretending you homosexual bigot!

Banning Homosexual marriage is ONE of our pressing needs if you don't know.

Is it homosexual marriage that made America great? Why are you guys so worried that you are spewing rubbish here? Why didn't you mobilize to the senate to make your presentation known?

Oh my fuckin days, you are insufferable! How is this one of the pressing issues, how does this affect the economy in any way. You are everywhere on this forum spewing shiit from Feminism and now this?..Dude, you need to low it. Stop calling people Bigots, you are the bigot.
I'm very sure you expect every straight person to think like you do, No I don't!

It's such a wonderful thing you all are doing. I don't even visit this section but this thread got a lot of heart. Beautiful people! I believe this is the real humanity, I'm so touched, I can't even believe it..
I pray the family of the deceased get the fortitude to get through. You guys are so amazing, they will be proud of their daughter..I'm so touched.
This thread has pretty much given me something.

There are worse reasons not to get Married, or for a marriage not to work, Being age mates is not one.

This is funny!

DMainMan: This is how d table will finish.

1 Arsenal
2 Manchester City
3 Chelsea
4 Liverpool
5. Man United

Rememeber dat I said dis today

Though I want this, We can't be bullish. We've got a shot at it but I still believe Shitty are favourites for it. We get that quality striker, it will bring that same belief Ozil brought earlier and we can be sure Arsenal can go all the way.

Arsenal should get this, though Geordies are in good form but I'm not nervous as I was the last time we went there...
Ozil will be rested today from what I gathered.


Side note: Man city fans are increasing, bless you glory hunters!

Death cab for cutie is quite cool, first time I came across them through my sister..she was always playing "Soul meets body".
