I haven't been there yet but I am their friend on facebook and it does look intriguing!

 
For whatever reason "Framework" kept my attention last night. Reality show on Spike TV that's just like the other 8 million shows on nowadays, but this one revolves around building furniture. Must be that it appeals to an Engineer more than a British guy screaming at wannabe cooks does.

Typical format...bunch of people have to build something new each week and the worst guy goes home. The winner gets his stuff put in some store somewhere and becomes a "famous" furniture guy (didn't realize there was such a thing). First show they had to build a piece of furniture out of reclaimed boat parts. Second show they had to build a ping pong table. The judges are pretty brutal which ups the entertainment factor.

 
Have any of you watched the Carbonaro Effect or Impractical Jokers on TRUTV? I caught them randomly surfing channels and some of the stuff they do is hilarious.

There aren't too many episodes of Carbonara, and I think I've seen them all. I love how people just go along him. Sal is my favorite on Impractical Jokers, they were touring locally here (or soon) but the dates didn't work out so my husband could go :(

 
I like carbonaro effect. Impractical jokers not so much

 
I'm glad I'm not the only one who was thinking the exact same thing.

 
The Mrs. and I just started watching Sherlock on Netflix and we're hooked after the first 3 episodes. We need to get back into House of Cards, but it's been so long since we watched it, we'd probably have to start back at the beginning.

 
Funny you mention that Ble. I had started watching Sherlock and took a break to prep for the PE exam. I just watched the first Season and am completely hooked again. Too bad there aren't many episodes/seasons of that show.

 
And they take foreeeeeeeeeever between seasons of Sherlock.

Ble - Better get moving on House of Cars, new season starts soon!

 
Glad to hear Sherlock is good. I got the first season (3 episodes) on DVD for Christmas.

Ya Sherlock (BBC version) is a great show. Benedict C. is pretty epic in his role as is Watson. Each story goes into quite a bit of depth on how it happened and really hooks you. Just wait until Moriarty makes a brief appearance. Bad@ss. The pool scene is one of my favorites.

^ that is a great show. we binge watched it on netflicks. our netflicks has closed captions set up, (I'm not sure how) but it helped at times.

We are now binge streaming Downton Abbey on one of those questionable streaming sites. Great show, but I need the captions!

We just finished the episode that your talking about fox. When it ended we were both like "You have got to be kidding me!" Great show so far, and that pool scene was great.
