From comments in other threads in the past, I got the impression that a couple of you guys follow this series. Just to let you know that that the 2nd season returned with its 10th episode last Thursday, and overall it was a cool episode. I thought that Tricia Helfer was only going to be around for a couple of episodes, but she has stuck around for quite a bit.

You can find the latest episode here:

My wife and I have been big fans of this show since we stumbled into it halfway through the first season.  Great action, campy humor, and Bruce Campbell is the man.

Best overall show on TV nowadays in my opinion.  I know most people would say that the more popular shows like 24, Lost, etc are better, but I think this is MUCH better.

New episode last Thursday, and it had Michael Irving in it... but didn't have that much of a role.

I really liked this episode, quite funny at times. Some plot progress in trying to figure out who the bomber was, and Fional and Michael get it on in the end.

I gave this show a go. I didn't like it first but it got better with every episode, and by the second season it was brilliant. Much enjoyed.

I was actually at my mom's house when I got exposed to this show.  She loves it.

Now, my wife and I catch it whenever we can.  Not a real "thinker" show most of the time, but it kind of gives you the action stuff that a couple can watch together and both enjoy IMO.

I like this show a lot. It's pretty much a smarter version of the A-Team.

And did Cassell, a man of many words, have anything to say after that?

Show returned two weeks ago, and it's been solid so far. Old friends/enemies are showing up. The got the Miami police going after Mike, and Moon Bloodgood (Day Break, Terminator Salvation) is playing a detective through this arc.

Yeah, I wasn't a huge fan of the carla character last season, even though I was a huge fan of the season overall.

I like this season quite a bit so far, although the Fiona/Micheal/Detective hottie love triangle looks like its going somewhere predictable. You never got the vibe that Carla was into micheal, and but this girl screams tension.

I thought Carla was a good character. Enjoyed that.

Not wild about the first two episodes of the third season, it's lost it's value as a progressing story. Hopefully, it'll pick up.

Well, just finished up the season, and I enjoyed it quite a bit. I particularly liked what they did with the final couple of episodes with the relationship between Mike and Fiona. I thought the relationship was a weak part of the show and quite dull, but I think they did enough in those final couple of episodes to make it a bit interesting.

I liked how the season finished, looks like things will get quite interesting. They just signed Garrett Dillahunt (Deadwood, Terminator) for an episode... hopefully he'll appear in more episodes.

Reports say the show is doing really good in the ratings, the final episode got about 7 millions which is a very good number for cable shows.
