FOX seems to be throwing a lot of money behind "Empire". Also where did all the movie roles go for Terrence Howard, I thought he was a pretty big deal at one time.

The Americans season 3 premieres tonight. This is one of my personal top 3 right now along with Game of Thrones and True Detective.
If you're not up on the show, DVR the current season and catch up on Amazon. I believe it's available on Prime. Also, they show Keri Russell's bare butt on an episode in Season 2. And the female Soviet double agent working out of the embassy is enormously hot.Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”Comment

Nina? I always thought Nina was super hot.Originally posted by Color Me Badd Fan View Post
I only watched season 1, which I enjoyed, but not enough to have me chomping at the bit for season 2. Is there an improvement between seasons?Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

Yes, Nina is super hot. Additionally, the actress performed with the Groundlings for awhile. Funny (apparently) and super hot!Originally posted by falafel View Post
The second season is considerably better than the first season. And this season is supposed to be even better (at least the episodes that have been seen by critics).Part of it is based on academic grounds.

Champing at the bit vs. chomping at the bit
One definition of bit is a metal mouthpiece used for controlling a horse, and one definition of champ is to bite or chew noisily. These are the senses meant in the idiom champing at the bit, which refers to the tendency of some horses to chew on the bit when impatient or eager. In its figurative sense, it means to show impatience while delayed, or just to be eager to start.
The idiom is usually written chomping at the bit, and some people consider this spelling wrong. But chomp can also mean to bite or chew noisily (though chomped things are often eaten, while champed things are not), so chomp at the bit means roughly the same as champ at the bit.
In fact, chomp, which began as a variant of champ, is alive in English while the biting-related sense of champ is dead outside this idiom, so it’s no wonder that chomping at the bit is about 20 times as common as champing at the bit on the web. Champing at the bit can sound funny to people who aren’t familiar with the idiom or the obsolete sense of champ, while most English speakers can infer the meaning of chomping at the bit.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

In the end, it’s just wrong to say “chomping,” because “chomping” is a transitive verb, or a verb that needs an object for it to make sense. In other words, you have to have something to chomp on if you want to use “chomp.” A horse doesn’t chomp, or bite, the bit—he champs, or grinds, his teeth. No bit is necessary for a champing to happen, so champing is an intransitive verb, which means no “object” is required.I'm like LeBron James.
