Boss (Starz, Friday 10 p.m.) — Season Two Premiere. Boss is a great political drama anchored by the blistering performance of Kelsey Grammer and, save for the final scene, last season was one hell of an enjoyable series to watch. Unfortunately, nobody watches it, but I’m guessing in a couple of years, when everyone catches up on it on Netflix, there’s going to be a lot of folks disappointed that it was canceled too soon. Plus, Kathleen Robertson (see above).
Breaking Bad (AMC, Sunday 10 p.m.) — There’s only three episodes left, which is probably two more episodes than Landry will live, right? What’s up with all the Pacino movies, though? If Vince Gilligan is trying to foreshadow an ending, I hope it’s not Scent of a Woman, which leaves Walter White blind, yelling Hoo-Wa, and hanging out with prep school kids.
Real Time with Bill Maher, Friday 10 p.m.) — Bill Maher returns tonight, and just in time, as the political season has taken a decidedly ugly turn this last week.
Copper (BBC America, Sunday 10 p.m.) — Hey! I reviewed this earlier today. I don’t have high hopes, but it’s worth a shot.
Political Animals (USA Network, Sunday 10 p.m.) — First season finale. Will this be the night that Carla Gugino finally takes it all off in an effort to ensure renewal? Please?
Newsroom (HBO, Sunday 10 p.m.) — I thought last week’s episode was the most even one yet. There were no huge melodramatic moments, barely any repurposing, and there was great storyline coursing through the episode, which continues with part two Sunday.

Here I was clicking the link on twitter, thinking Ed Meese was finally getting the spotlight he so richly deserves.
Does anyone else think this Newsroom episode is going to end up like the Sports Night episode with the Jordan interview? Struggling show, needs the ratings, but they don’t want to compromise their integrity. My prediction is that they end up not talking about Casey Anthony, instead choosing to cover a real news story, and people end up watching anyway. That would be very Sorkinian.
That, or else the Anthony Weiner mistress winds up sexually harrassing Will and they tell her to get the hell out.
Bill Maher has a smelly vagina
And her name is Sarah Silverman.
BooYah!
Thank Yaweh Bill Mahar is back. As a spineless retard, I can’t wait for him to tell me what to think. (He’s still a Libertarian right?) whakety smakety doo
the only thing that has bugged me about Breaking Bad is all the Jesse James comments, i feel it’s gonna lead to somewhere but they almost feel forced.
She’s attractive, but in a very harsh way. Her Jawline reminds me of Leno’s. Or a shark’s.
So Episode 7 of Breaking Bad is titled “Say My Name” The Comcast preview: While Mike deals with the repercussions of his actions, Walt takes care of the business.
DirecTV has this to add: Walt acts kinda shady, ain’t calling Sky baby.
If the spectre of Pacino movies portends anything, it’s probably more tied to Heat (following Hank’s reference this last episode) than anything else. Recalling the beginning of the season’s first episode, with Walt in full beard, my guess is that the events leading up to the season finale will have most of the dudes forced to walk away from their respective involvements.
OR Y’KNOW, HOO-HAHS.
Let’s watch this week and see all the new ways to be a smug talentless twat Bill Maher discovers.
Sexiest political aide?
Amy Gardner. Hands down.
