    It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

    Baseball: MLB Playoffs

    I take it no interest in MLB here since there are no threads? I'm hoping Philly can repeat what they did last year and win the world series. With the likes of Cliff Lee and Ibanez they have a better team so they have a good shot at it.

    United States of Tara

    Anybody else a fan of this show? I love it. Stolen from imdb: It's about Tara (Toni Collette) and how she and her family deals with all her "alters". She has 4 different personalities and they cause a lot of problems within the family unit. It's fascinating as it's based on a real...
