There isn't a baseball thread yet, so this is going here. Does anyone do the mlb.tv thing? And if so, did you end up running into weird blackout restriction changes in the middle of the season or anything like that? Luckily my team isn't included in my local blackout region but there was something about how that could change at any time. Any other common problems with the service?

I'm just getting caught up on Mad Men, currently near the end of the second season. The first couple episodes didn't really grab me and it took catching some later ones to get me hooked, but I'm hooked. Peter Campbell is a creepy fuck and I can't tell if it's just the character or the actor. Vincent Kartheiser really irritated me in Angel, too. Maybe if the guy grew some facial hair.

I am in the same boat as you about Pete Campbell.  Once you get caught up we will need to discuss the episode they aired on Sunday (Season 5, Episode 5).  I can't say much without spoilers, so all I will tell you is that I got everything I wanted, but feel conflicted about it now that I got it.  The writers are damn good.

I love this season, and I love Pete. A lot. He is just so great.

Is it because I secretly want to be married to a weird spoiled rich girl played by Alison Brie? Yes.

I was hoping to be caught up by this weekend, but I've actually been doing shit (taxes, working overtime, getting prints framed) so I doubt it. I'm gonna try though.

Jesus yes. Alison Brie. Oh yes.

But that's a perfectly good reason to hate him!

this season is super good so far, aside from john hamm's direcing during the premier. i love to hate pete, i can't bring myself to enjoy him any other way. good for lane is all i'm saying.

also alison brie is wins, and often the best part of community.

Gillian Jacobs has been remarkably funny this season too.

I really don't understand why I have so much sympathy for Pete. At this point I kind of hate all of the men but Pete.

Love me some Community. 

Also, those two could make an egg sandwich anytime they want.

Took me a season to realize I like Game of Thrones.  I should have waited until the series was over.  Now I have to wait week-to-week like some 1980's time warp.
