Hannibal returned with season 2 last weekend. I so want to like this show but he's so damn hard to understand at times due to his accent. Google a clip and you'll see what I mean.
New Acquisitions:
TR Astrotrain, Skullsmasher, & Hardhead

True Detective is super good, new episode out today and last one comes out next week. Can't wait.
I was surprised at how good Rick & Morty is. It's been on break but I think new eps start back up in a week or two. They've been putting them up on YouTube (legitimately) after they air.
Very pleased to have Hannibal back, easily one of the best new shows from last year.
"The Checkout" on ABC weeknights at 6.30pm... probably not too many episodes left as they are now into the second season. Demonac put me onto this show, and it should be required viewing as it covers dodgy marketing and products, as well as consumer rights when buying products or signing up to anything financial.
I've only started to watch 'The Checkout' as well. Brilliant. Quirky and funny & great ABC cast. FU-Tube is a great segment.
Finally finished watching 2006/7 Saiyuuki --- mild spoiler warning ---

At the end of the last episode, Sanzouhoushi (Tripitaka), Son Gokuu (Monkey), Sa Gojou (Sandy) and Cho Hakkai (Pigsy) escape from the baddies. Weary and beaten, they see a man sitting with his back facing towards them drinking from a big bottle of water. Gokuu begs him to give them a drink, but he ignores their pleas and continues drinking. Gokuu rushes at him, but the old man lifts the bottle causing Gokuu to trip over and fall. As Gokuu looks up, the old man is laughing at him, but the audience sees that the old man is played by Sakai Masaaki, who of course played the original Son Gokuu/Monkey from the 1978-80 "Monkey" TV series!The old man then picks up Nyoibou (Gokuu's staff) and starts spinning it around just as he did in the old show, and the original "Monkey Magic" theme song starts playing in the background!
It is then revealed that the old man is actually Buddha himself, who gives them the Sacred Scrolls (the object of their long quest), and also liberates Gokuu by removing the golden ring from his head, and even remarking, "This thing really hurts, doesn't it?"
That's gotta be one of the best TV cameos evah!
