I came across The Newsroom with Jeff Daniels and Olivia Munn. HBO 2012-14.
Munn is a much better actor than the shitty roles she has had since, but the show predicted the corporate takeover of US media and the subsequent enshittification of news. Scarily accurate, and in fact was too optimistic because the current shit show is much worse than they predicted would happen and they gave the IQ of the American public far too much credit.
Ope, that hole is a rough one. I still crave more similar style shows with that good mix of light and dark and urban fantasy that doesn't need to take itself too seriously.
Wildly different show, but The Magicians scratches a somewhat similar itch, especially after season 2. It's definitely darker, but is also about young people struggling with the consequences of living in a world with magic that most people don't know about while also having fun with it from time to time
Old TV episodes were mostly garbage and just watched because nothing better was on. Old TV really had a captive audience and could succeed just from which time they aired.
I'm fine with a season being "the story they want to tell" instead of "the story they want to tell, as well as just as many filler episodes, and maybe a clip show if needed to pad out the season".
Sucks that so many shows are only recorded in 720p for that reason. Couldn't find a 1080p of Eastbound and Down to save my life. Luckily who cares with a show like that, which is I guess why it's only around in 720p.
The only copy of Heat Vision and Jack I can find is in 360p
Ahhh, now I understand your problem. You're a datahoarder! Yeah, it kinda sucked to collect media back in the day. In the early 00's I had a neighbour who collected mp3s - he didn't care what type of music it was, he just collected 'em. I didn't understand at the time, but now I see he was a budding archivist.
Yeah, but you gotta learn to love the bomb. After they stole my laptop and backup drive (only had 1 backup, silly me), I became disappointed in local storage. When they killed liveleak, I knew the adage 'the internet remembers' was hollow and only the short-term memory thrives, if that.
From what I gather, hoarding music, movies and newer tv shows for preservation is unnecessary, but if you come across an old TV casette recording of a broadcast TV show, digitize it and upload it to Anna's Archive.
Good luck honing your hoarding skills. I too prefer local copies. Who wants to sit through buffering?
Music availability can be spotty without VPN depending on your interests. Streaming services don't curate everything you might want and youtube region locks stuff. They've also gotten pretty cancerous about content striking.
I didn't think movies would be hard until I started trying to watch foreign films. Aki Karismäki films were my personal white whale and now I'll seed those until I die. I forgot about Anna's Archive. I wonder if they'd be wanted there?
Yeah the end of U.S. internet neutrality royally fucked streaming speeds. That's a reason in itself
most shows lasting that long have great arcs, as it allows time to flesh the characthers and lore. nushows are too short to capitlize that. sg1, old trek. AOS(agents of shields). maybe except for shows that have to adhere to comics, and the story ends with it.
supernatural 1-5 golden era, shouldve ended there, 6,8 is are pretty decent adding some change of story"post apocalypse" 7,9,10 were fillers, 11 had a somewhat ok season with the god counterpart, 12-14,15 were total fillers. aside from the final princes, dint like how jack was shoehorned into the show to give him a nepostic chance of acting, one of the reason they dint bring back the anti-christ.
Not bringing back the anti-christ was a huge failing of that show. His episode was one of the best and they could have built out such a good arc for him.
yes, i believe the reason was dabbs/ and the other writer wanted jack in future seasons when he is old enough, they wanted the nepo to be the star of the show. this was according to the interviews, they were like avoiding the question why jessie isnt coming back. i think the actor was interested in coming back as older anti-christ, if he wouldve been recasted. likely the reason why Darkness was quickly squared away, because "jack had to be the only GOD"
The jack chracther was a cameo in the BOYz, dint realize he was in there, im guessing his career isnt jumpstarted like they wanted.
LEXX mention in the wild! Easily the most inconsistent show of all time. Absolutely brilliant highs and some of the absolute shittiest TV you've ever seen, as well. God bless. Gotta rewatch it.
An alternative to having depression is discovering a love for a new genre of content. As long as you don't get overwhelmed by how much will be available, you'll be set for a very long time.
I indirectly spoiled myself by looking at the cast appearance page of the last season in the series' Wikipedia article and now I'm reluctant to finish the series.
I don't think it deserved to be cancelled, but I understand why fans of the previous series' hated it if they were expecting the fun, campy style of SG1 and Atlantis. I never watched SG1 or Atlantis until AFTER universe, because I saw the original movie they were all based on and thought it was kinda lame; figured the shows would be too.
One thing always pained me about that series. I know it's whole thing was that every episode followed pretty much the same formula, but I wish they had one episode that was just House working in the clinic for a day and diagnosing like 40 patients in a row. We get a few small scenes when he has to spend a few hours there dealing with the general public, but they're few and far between.
and almost every replication of it isnt as good. maybe the pitt? dint realize the showrunner/ main character was also the doctor in the OG medical series, ER, and that went on for like 12 seasons.
House MD is a great show, and I partially identified with House at the time I viewed it. Now, more spiritually inclined and aware that the world is an illusion and is ultimately dependent on the entanglements created through intention-setting, I see House much like my father; very logically-oriented but missing the point. There are more complex systems than what the universe presents as it's empirically-defined system. The universe is a divine clock, alright, but therein, there is greater complexity at play that bestows each of our parallel-generated experiences. We are not featherless bipeds on an Earth, but rather each of us is a unique pocket of consciousness that is procedurally generated based on intention-setting, and our intentions are reconciled with countless others to generate the realities most likely to wake us up to this process, and my awareness piqued twelve years ago and I speal from gnosis of having followed the whispers of God; logic (Adam) is only half the equation, and our intuition (Eve) will understand reality truly before that which House defined his life by.
On a scale of Martha Stewart to Snoop Dogg, how high are you right now? Im at least a Weird Al interviewing Snoop/Dogg but im still having trouble following you.
Schizoaffective (bipolar subtype) and PTSD are my official diagnosis' but doctors have talked to me at length about having autism too. Also, that ASD undoubtedly has an ADHD component as amphetamines do not produce a euphoria, though I haven't used those in three years and don't plan to again.
I replied to the captain of lesbians who replied to you. Mostly sober though. No more than a couple beers a day and some weed. I don't get fucked up unless I'm doing something sexual. I got shit to do, like bring attention to my educational (f)art project which you are now aware exists.
I don't think it's good in a "this is a well-thought out and masterpiece level piece of art," I enjoyed it because House is a piece of shit with some wittiness to it. The medical part of it I know is garbage, but I am mostly ignorant of much of medicine besides mental health and psychiatry, so when they're technobabbling about some disease, I don't blink an eye. When they have a schizophrenic patient on, it rather bothers me because it is just a caricature of what someone who read a textbook understands, so I understand that this is likely how someone knowledgeable of medicine might feel about the whole series. It was very important I found it when I did during my college years though as it helped distract me from my years long crisis.
This is what happens when teachers tell kids they won't have access to calculators for tests when they grow up and those kids just accept they don't know math. Now they're in advertising.
It was way ahead of it's time. Think about trying to be a fan of that show in the 90s. You miss one big episode and suddenly you're completely lost on the story. Streaming/binge watching brought it a lot more fans, myself included.
what would have qualified as a 'good' ending to Mr. Robot for you? i prefer a series that accomplishes its narrative intent within a few seasons, then bundles its loose ends up nicely and concludes, rather than one that persists indedinitely for no good reason.
The reliance on the unreliable narrator to make the story bite bothered my viewing partner, but I liked it that way. Was that the deep end for you, or was it something else?
In high school I would watch the entire series, then when I watched the final episode at the time, I'd start again on My First Day. Just loop that shit.
jackie chan adventures, its about them finding magical talismans of the main enemy, a statufied dragon(is japanese in nature and summons demon ninjas), later on it was used to summon demons of various abilities, like gravity.
Yeah, it's peak The Office cringe, but it's not bad exactly, just that Carell was doing that bit much better. If one skips anything, it's the last two seasons when everybody is flanderized all to hell, they're out of things to do in Pawnee, and some of the new additions don't work as well. I'd say skip any episode in S6 that feels off, and then just ignore s7. Feels like Babylon 5 where thy're like, "We got another season, WTF do we do now?"
Hey I love The Office, but Parks & Rec just hits a lot harder for me. Maybe it's because I live in a small town so we end up knowing everything that happens in the local government (and everything that happens in the town, really, there isn't much to keep track of). The Office is funny to me because it feels absurd and exaggerated, but P&R is funnier because it's just as ridiculous but feels way too realistic for comfort.
I'd say The (US) Office's highs might be a little higher than P&R's, but P&R had an optimism that kept it better for longer, or at least for a longer percentage of its run. IMHO The Office already had the check-fuel light on by the time Jim and Pam got married, and by the end it was just some strangers physically pushing the thing a couple miles farther down the road. P&R for me didn't start declining until they got back from London, and S6 still had a lot of good stuff. I'd have to look into it, but I really do feel like they thought that was the end, but somehow got renewed for S7 and had to do the entire weird coda of a season with a three year time skip that, I guess, made it technically Sci Fi, LOL
That seems pretty common for super popular shows. Like there are only so many seasons needed, and instead of keeping things tidy and ending the show, they extend with seasons that don't fit and really ruin the overall show. Both Parks and Rec and Office did it.
The Good Place went the other way. NBC and the fans wanted more but Mike Schur and Greg Daniels (The Office, P&R) kept it short and sweet. Didn’t overstay its welcome and went out when and how they intended.
It's insanely good, definitely check it out. In the first episode Tony goes to therapy, and then runs someone over with his car, and later pulls a gun out of a fish and shoots a man with it.
Me neither. After a couple Godfather movies I had enough of mafia stories - I can't sympathize or relate with them, I just want 'em all to shoot each other and be done with it. But it's fun to mock their distinctive vocal pattern.
Decide for yourself, it received a huge amount of hate and most people just jumped on the train for the sake of hating it. While I agree the last season was rushed, I quite enjoyed some aspects of it.
I did not read any of the books and will not read them ever probably.
I had a realization lately that the last season didn’t just ruin GoT for me. I think it subconsciously ruined TV. I’ve not gotten invested in a non-comedy series since then.
If I'm honest, it really feels like a LOT of media got suddenly worse some time in the 2010s in general. TV, movies, big budget games - I know enshittification is a thing in every industry, but it feels like there was a major quality drop in such a short period of time.
There are obviously some exceptions, but it's like a switch was flipped, and my interest was gone. GoT was one that carried on for a while, but then it succumbed to it too.
The reason why the outcry over GoT's decline was so loud is that it actually managed to make previous seasons worse by its existence. All that intrigue your favourite characters were building over the previous 5 seasons? None of that ever mattered; either it got forgotten about by the writers, or the character switched into stupid mode and threw all their progress away for no reason. Once you've become aware of that, it's hard to get on board with their development on rewatch.
the reimagined series is too strange compared to TOS, the showrunner has a messianic(the showrunner is apparently christian faith so that may have something to do with it) vision of series, with very litle backstory into those non-corporeal beings other than they are "angels". and the failed caprica series.
I still can't bring myself to watch any of the spin offs. People keep telling me how good they are, but I was burned before and need time to learn to love again.
Yeah, that's the case with a lot of media. But I've had three different people tell me they were good and asked if I was watching. I'm gonna wait until they're over before committing.
My spouse actually liked the last 2 seasons and ending, I was just disappointed by last 2 seasons.
But, I'm a jaded old misanthrope that read the books 1st, up to when that was impossible, and wanted the dark theme to continue and/or time skip to happen.
I never read the books but for my money I thought the last season was really good. It maybe didnt end the way I wanted it to but it wasnt a bad ending by any means.
I have also never read the books but that last season throws every character development out the window in a show all about characters and just rushes through scenes ignoring any build up to conclude to whatever shit the writers thought no one would ever guess because it was more important for them to not be guessed than to make it make sense.
It is objectively a horrible season, doubly so in contrast to the first one.
Very possibly so. I'm also not a huge believer in the sanctity of lore when you are adapting something to a different medium. IE, didnt miss Tom Bombadil in the Lord if the Rings movies so I'm pretty easy going as long as the adaptation is good in its own right.
::: spoiler Tap for spoiler
But seriously though, fuck Bran. Terrible character, just completely uninteresting and lame uncool from the word go. Gets Hodor killed, somehow through unexplained time travel causes Hodor's "hodor" problem. A girl takes him all the way through the frozen north just for him to say, bye now! Trash character. Ser Davos should have been King at the end.
:::
The show runners were in a rush to finish up and get to their next project (which never ended up happening). That, and the fact they ran out of source material to pull from is thought to be why the quality of the show dropped so much.
I'll second the other commenter. With your preconceived notion being "terrible," you might be pleasantly surprised and find that it's merely "rushed." GoT is partly a cultural artifact as the last genre project that truly captured the monoculture's attention (it laughs at Severance's or Stanger Things' so-called impact) before the internet shattered it, so everything good and bad about it was dramatically amplified.
To each their own, naturally. I usually eat stuff that’s not super crunchy and I also watch with subtitles since I have difficulty processing spoken language anyway lol
I actually very recently tried New Girl. Forced myself to finish the first episode, is the pilot that bad? Does it get better? May just not be my cup of tea I suppose but I have a hard time forcing an hour of media consumption before I get hooked lol who has that kind of spare time these days.
Go back further and you hit some really great trash TV no one is talking about, like Babylon 5, and Renegade. Even just the opening credits to Renegade are classic:
He was a cop, and good at his job. But then he committed the ultimate sin and testified against other cops - gone bad. Cops who tried to kill him but got the woman he loved instead. Framed for murder, now he prowls the badlands. An outlaw hunting outlaws, a bounty hunter - a renegade!
Oh season 2 is hard but it's such a painful season and so good at making you feel. And 6 even more so. 6 isn't my favorite season because 3 and 5 exist, but it's probably 3rd. Definitely has some questionable decisions, but the making the big bad be life, the incel villains, and the raw struggles of the characters were so good. Also the musical episode was peak.
::: spoiler Tap for spoiler
Tara deserved better though. And everything surrounding the rape was quite rough.
:::
Season 4 is my least favorite because it just failed to hit very hard, and being sandwiched between 3 with Cordelia's face turn and Faith, Wesley, and the Mayor and 5 with Glory and just everything great about it, it's flatness was far more noticeable
I get that. 6 was almost really great at being what it really was, a long, depressing slog. Which it should have been. But that makes the clunky episodes just heavy and bad. Plus the transition from network to network... Ugh.
He cheated on his wife, but loads of good writers do that. He was a raging douche to Charisma Carpenter and ruined her joy in her career. But he was a d remains a spectacular writer. Just a total hypocrite, like most people in Hollywood.
Eh I'd call him an amazing showrunner (aside from what he did to Carpenter, her absence made the show worse in addition to his behavior being wrong) and a very swingy writer. Toy Story was great, but his writing for Marvel is what really broke the spell of him as an amazing writer. Though apparently he wrote most of the best episodes of Buffy, so maybe I just dislike his writing in superhero movies.
I'm honestly so grateful for Star Trek. And there are enough episodes between TOS, TNG, VOY, DS9, and Lower Decks that I can pretty much infinitely rewatch them in an endless loop. Especially if you also throw in The Orville, The Expanse, any of the Stargates, or Battlestar Galactica into that watch loop.
Toss in Babylon 5 for the Trek/Sgate/Bstar/Expanse and all spin offs rotation. That's a ton of great shows that could keep you busy for years with little overlap and breaks between franchises.
I grew up with Voyager and at some point, I systematically rewatches TNG, DS9 and VOY (and TOS, this was before DIS). I watched the episodes in order of release which adds to the experience because there are reoccuring characters and narratives showing up in different shows. The shows are very episodic (except for parts of DS9) so you can watch them in any order, but if you watch them all anyways, be aware of the overlap both in release date and in the story
Not 8 seasons or whatever, but I'm surprised I never heard of The Strain before this summer, 4 seasons and it has an ending, unlike its contemporaries, definitely recommend
Such a great show. I’ve rewatched it through three times so far and read the original books too.
I would recommend you read the books, it really enhances and expands the series.
I'll definitely watch this. This affliction gets far too little exposure. The strain is real. Finally, a show I can watch while I attempt to make an offering to the porcelain god.
And here I am contemplating trying to find "My Mother the Car" because it sounds stupid as fuck and I have wanted to experience the badness of it since my dad told me of its existence years ago.
And if you like the idea of watching a classic tv series but know you won’t actually follow through on it, my favorite youtuber made a long but interesting video about it as well! https://youtu.be/s9AJlhE2-qw?is=lDIfgZ2ntNdxxUsv
After having seen a few minutes of the new T&J on the screen while waiting for my Döner I still can't tell. It looked like AI to me, through and through.
Get a life is a series I remember fondly. However it might be nostalgia and not be that great, or maybe it hasn't stood the test of time. I don't know because it's nowhere to be found nowadays.
I understand that concern, but I’d say that it’s one of those shows that picks up as time goes on, as there is a main plot line that is slowly established before really driving the plot. The last two seasons have some stellar episodes, with the show losing some of its procedural nature.
It is still science fiction, so of course that whenever a character hacks something it always looks dumb.
I read that it picks up, forced my way through S1 and the beginning of S2 and just could not continue, way too much cheese. I love sci-fi and could not push on.
Here I thought the final seasons were where it really shone. The episode with Negan's backstory with his wife Lucille was a masterpiece. That could've been a movie in and of its own. Made me cry.
But of course, season 1 was amazing. Season 2 was meh, and the rest between s02 and S10 were chugging along fine IMO.

I wfh so this is gold when I find a good show that has multiple seasons and I can actually follow while working.
I spent a couple of months only watching Venture Bros in my free time and oh boy it was so fucking GOOD
Battlestar Galactica 🤍
I much prefer a show that comes in, does it's thing, and fucks off again. Respect my time.
Stretching it out to a million seasons with a million episodes each just for archaic syndication purposes is a big no from me, dawg.
Time to rewatch The Wire again...
Supernatural or Smallville for sure. Or Stargate sg1.
Soul crushing when it ends on a major cliffhanger and you find out it was cancelled.
For me:
The Following
Ash vs Evil Dead
Mr Robot
IT crowd
Futurama
Chuck
Fringe, Fargo and True Detective
24 epis per season too.
I just discovered Person of Interest a few weeks ago, and have been binge watching it. It's so good.
And 20 episodes per season. Each episode 40 to 60 minutes.
I watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer for the first time this year. It was the perfect end-of-day comfort show.
Now I've finished all 7 seasons and there is a hole in my life.
Ope, that hole is a rough one. I still crave more similar style shows with that good mix of light and dark and urban fantasy that doesn't need to take itself too seriously.

Angel is pretty good but takes a season or so to find its feet.
Since no one else has said it, I want to recommend "Dark." It's German, so subtitled unless you watch it dubbed, but oh shit what a lengthy ride
Dark was good, but it ended with too many holes for my liking. (Can't remember them now, sorry).
Thank god I didn't have to scroll too far to find this!
I recently discovered Hamiltons Pharmacopeia and that shit is exactly what I need. Sadly it only has 3 Seasons.
The Shield, full series
Graceland, 1st season
Dexter, seasons 1-4
You're welcome 😉
You mean back when a “season” meant 26 episodes and not 9?
Old TV episodes were mostly garbage and just watched because nothing better was on. Old TV really had a captive audience and could succeed just from which time they aired.
I'm fine with a season being "the story they want to tell" instead of "the story they want to tell, as well as just as many filler episodes, and maybe a clip show if needed to pad out the season".
Pirating old TV was just a storage commitment for that. Crazy that over time the file size got larger but it's less of a problem
I remember watching 240p episodes of stargate season 6 because they could only fit so many on a DVDRW back then
Sucks that so many shows are only recorded in 720p for that reason. Couldn't find a 1080p of Eastbound and Down to save my life. Luckily who cares with a show like that, which is I guess why it's only around in 720p.
The only copy of Heat Vision and Jack I can find is in 360p
Ooh! Lemme try my hand at those. My brothers love Eastbound. I'll DM you if I find it
Edit: wait no they like Smokey and the Bandit, I'm mistaken. The 2009 TV series Eastbound and Down is all over the place in 1080p
There's two remasters of Heat Vision and Jack on youtube if you're familiar with ripping from there
I love you.

I could get half a season of Friends on a written CD with divx. I'd say the bottleneck was the DL speed for that era.

Indeed! Just not a very good one.
And yeah It's crazy the stuff that's becoming unavailable over time. Luckily music is a little more preserved and available than a lot of film
Yeah, but you gotta learn to love the bomb. After they stole my laptop and backup drive (only had 1 backup, silly me), I became disappointed in local storage. When they killed liveleak, I knew the adage 'the internet remembers' was hollow and only the short-term memory thrives, if that.

The Expanse is well worth your time.
I've heard good things about the books as well
I just started watching this, again. So, good.
The last two seasons though are meh, the last season is outright nonsensical, unfortunately
Barney Miller
M.A.S.H.
Star Trek: DS9

Gravity Falls
Buffy/Angel
MASH really mailed it in the last 5 years.
Hard disagree. There are plenty of great episodes in the last 5 seasons.
TNG, DS9, VOYAGER, enterprise was suppose to go to 7 seasons, but it was cancelled.
It actually got really good when Berman and Bragga gave up on it and gave it to Moore but it was too late.
Felt like it was right on the cusp of greatness. The NX refit would've been like Riker growing his beard

The sad thing is, it mostly deserved to get cancelled overall.

I don't think it deserved to be cancelled, but I understand why fans of the previous series' hated it if they were expecting the fun, campy style of SG1 and Atlantis. I never watched SG1 or Atlantis until AFTER universe, because I saw the original movie they were all based on and thought it was kinda lame; figured the shows would be too.
Rewatch every 8 years or so. Still good after the 3rd re-watch this year.
Episodes are very long
The 40 minute standard of when TV shows were still made for TV program is shorter than most high level streaming show episodes nowadays.
I think you're in the wrong thread.
your argument against, is the whole point.
Spiral, French TV series Wire in the blood, UK series Merlin, BBC.
I wish I could erase my memory of House M.D. and watch that masterpiece all over again. There isn't a shitty episode. Not one.
One thing always pained me about that series. I know it's whole thing was that every episode followed pretty much the same formula, but I wish they had one episode that was just House working in the clinic for a day and diagnosing like 40 patients in a row. We get a few small scenes when he has to spend a few hours there dealing with the general public, but they're few and far between.
Season 3, episode 12 ("One Day, One Room") is probably the closest to that.
It isn't all House in the clinic, all the time, but I think he only works clinic cases in that episode.
and almost every replication of it isnt as good. maybe the pitt? dint realize the showrunner/ main character was also the doctor in the OG medical series, ER, and that went on for like 12 seasons.
House MD is a great show, and I partially identified with House at the time I viewed it. Now, more spiritually inclined and aware that the world is an illusion and is ultimately dependent on the entanglements created through intention-setting, I see House much like my father; very logically-oriented but missing the point. There are more complex systems than what the universe presents as it's empirically-defined system. The universe is a divine clock, alright, but therein, there is greater complexity at play that bestows each of our parallel-generated experiences. We are not featherless bipeds on an Earth, but rather each of us is a unique pocket of consciousness that is procedurally generated based on intention-setting, and our intentions are reconciled with countless others to generate the realities most likely to wake us up to this process, and my awareness piqued twelve years ago and I speal from gnosis of having followed the whispers of God; logic (Adam) is only half the equation, and our intuition (Eve) will understand reality truly before that which House defined his life by.
On a scale of Martha Stewart to Snoop Dogg, how high are you right now? Im at least a Weird Al interviewing Snoop/Dogg but im still having trouble following you.
I'm pretty sure he's schizophrenic
Schizoaffective (bipolar subtype) and PTSD are my official diagnosis' but doctors have talked to me at length about having autism too. Also, that ASD undoubtedly has an ADHD component as amphetamines do not produce a euphoria, though I haven't used those in three years and don't plan to again.
I replied to the captain of lesbians who replied to you. Mostly sober though. No more than a couple beers a day and some weed. I don't get fucked up unless I'm doing something sexual. I got shit to do, like bring attention to my educational (f)art project which you are now aware exists.
Didn't think that people of your intelligence could find House MD good
I don't think it's good in a "this is a well-thought out and masterpiece level piece of art," I enjoyed it because House is a piece of shit with some wittiness to it. The medical part of it I know is garbage, but I am mostly ignorant of much of medicine besides mental health and psychiatry, so when they're technobabbling about some disease, I don't blink an eye. When they have a schizophrenic patient on, it rather bothers me because it is just a caricature of what someone who read a textbook understands, so I understand that this is likely how someone knowledgeable of medicine might feel about the whole series. It was very important I found it when I did during my college years though as it helped distract me from my years long crisis.
But DS9 only has 7 seasons
Edit: wait a minute… it came out 33 years ago…
The fuck it did.
shutupshutupshutupshutuplalalalalala plugs ears
Pair it with TNG!
It's from before streaming so each season has 23 episodes. Current TV has 10 episodes a season. It's twice as valuable as regular TV!
This is what happens when teachers tell kids they won't have access to calculators for tests when they grow up and those kids just accept they don't know math. Now they're in advertising.
DS9 was so good. No idea why it gets so much hate.
I was going to say the performance of Sisko, but Kirk gets a pass in ToS so I don't know what to tell you...
it was probably too linear, and not too much TNG aspects. it was a tng-esque in the first few seasons before the dominion.
It was way ahead of it's time. Think about trying to be a fan of that show in the 90s. You miss one big episode and suddenly you're completely lost on the story. Streaming/binge watching brought it a lot more fans, myself included.
Does it tho? From my experience, people say it aged very good and was ahead of its time
it is, apparently they spent a ton of money on CGI which was pretty good at the time.
It does? Most "best Star Trek series" lists I've seen has it at #1 or #2 🤷🏻
Can't be #1 because Patrick Stewart isn't in it.
I thought he was for a hot second there.
imho it's #1 because of all the characters, if you combine the depth of each it can surpass TNG easily..
to me, the tie is between 2nd and 3rd place: tng vs. voyager
4th mmm lower decks?
( And 5th is Babylon /s ... Hehe. Then 6th red dwarf )
I'm going to rewatch it!
Mr. Robot but 11 years ago and only 4 seasons
With trash ending
what would have qualified as a 'good' ending to Mr. Robot for you? i prefer a series that accomplishes its narrative intent within a few seasons, then bundles its loose ends up nicely and concludes, rather than one that persists indedinitely for no good reason.
Mr robot lost me in like season 2 or 3. Can't remember, but it felt like it went off the deep end compared to the setup in season 1
The reliance on the unreliable narrator to make the story bite bothered my viewing partner, but I liked it that way. Was that the deep end for you, or was it something else?
Corner Gas for me!
Scrubs for me.
The new season is just as good.
In high school I would watch the entire series, then when I watched the final episode at the time, I'd start again on My First Day. Just loop that shit.
A man of culture.
My wife and I will regularly go "One moooooore thing" anytime we have to add to a list

that was good until you realize jackie chan irl is a pos.
What show is this?
Is it kid (7-12yo) friendly?
Jackie Chan Adventures. It used to air every Saturday morning on Kids WB, so yeah, pretty kid friendly. It's a fun cartoon, definitely worth a watch
Cheers. I never saw it in NZ....maybe I'm too old.
It was definitely on NZ TV. I think it was part of Squirt‘s lineup.
Must be a bit after my kids TV years....
jackie chan adventures, its about them finding magical talismans of the main enemy, a statufied dragon(is japanese in nature and summons demon ninjas), later on it was used to summon demons of various abilities, like gravity.
Ukrainian dub of this one created many warm childhood memories for me
You’re almost perfectly describing Parks and Recreation. The shortened first season isn’t great but after that it’s perfect.
Yet I wouldn't recommend anyone skipping it
Yeah, it's peak The Office cringe, but it's not bad exactly, just that Carell was doing that bit much better. If one skips anything, it's the last two seasons when everybody is flanderized all to hell, they're out of things to do in Pawnee, and some of the new additions don't work as well. I'd say skip any episode in S6 that feels off, and then just ignore s7. Feels like Babylon 5 where thy're like, "We got another season, WTF do we do now?"
Hey I love The Office, but Parks & Rec just hits a lot harder for me. Maybe it's because I live in a small town so we end up knowing everything that happens in the local government (and everything that happens in the town, really, there isn't much to keep track of). The Office is funny to me because it feels absurd and exaggerated, but P&R is funnier because it's just as ridiculous but feels way too realistic for comfort.
I'd say The (US) Office's highs might be a little higher than P&R's, but P&R had an optimism that kept it better for longer, or at least for a longer percentage of its run. IMHO The Office already had the check-fuel light on by the time Jim and Pam got married, and by the end it was just some strangers physically pushing the thing a couple miles farther down the road. P&R for me didn't start declining until they got back from London, and S6 still had a lot of good stuff. I'd have to look into it, but I really do feel like they thought that was the end, but somehow got renewed for S7 and had to do the entire weird coda of a season with a three year time skip that, I guess, made it technically Sci Fi, LOL
The Office started taking itself too seriously imo. I mean it was still often hilarious, but it also often felt too serious in a way P&R never did.
That seems pretty common for super popular shows. Like there are only so many seasons needed, and instead of keeping things tidy and ending the show, they extend with seasons that don't fit and really ruin the overall show. Both Parks and Rec and Office did it.
The Good Place went the other way. NBC and the fans wanted more but Mike Schur and Greg Daniels (The Office, P&R) kept it short and sweet. Didn’t overstay its welcome and went out when and how they intended.
I think I have watched that through about 3 or 4 times now, and then I found out my sister has done the same.
Scrubs. I've played it all the way through to fall asleep at least 20 times.
Ah yes, it's 8 seasons are almost perfect.
(the reboot is fine too)
And the revival is pretty good! Looking forward to season 2
The revival hit really well! They did not disappoint! In fact I'll go so far as to say they went above my expectations!
What in the world, Judy Reyes (Carla) hasn't aged a day.
Oh my god I did not know! Thaaaaank youuu.
Wait, so you still haven't actually "seen" it all then lol.
He can't watch it all on his own, he's no Superman.
Oh no I've watched it through many times as well.
me with gamechanger recently
And it just keeps getting better.
There's nothing sweeter than the pain of catching up...
Me with Wire, Breaking Bad and House.
I have still not seen 'the sopranos ". I have seen so many references to it over the years that i sometimes think I must have seen it.
It's insanely good, definitely check it out. In the first episode Tony goes to therapy, and then runs someone over with his car, and later pulls a gun out of a fish and shoots a man with it.
Lol, who's Tony :)
Tony Jalapeno
Dem jappaleeno peppas is da bomb.
You did all of that!?
I find it to be much worse than all other HBO series I've seen (the wire, true detective, GoT).
Same. I really should watch it.
Me neither. After a couple Godfather movies I had enough of mafia stories - I can't sympathize or relate with them, I just want 'em all to shoot each other and be done with it. But it's fun to mock their distinctive vocal pattern.
Me either but I go back to Boardwalk Empire every once in a while.
I waited too long, but I’ve been slowly going through Game of Thrones for the first time this summer. Yes, I’m aware the last season is terrible.
After books end, it takes a drop in quality. So season 5. Good luck. I enjoyed the fuck out of it until then.
Decide for yourself, it received a huge amount of hate and most people just jumped on the train for the sake of hating it. While I agree the last season was rushed, I quite enjoyed some aspects of it. I did not read any of the books and will not read them ever probably.
It's really like the last three seasons. Once they got past the source material it increasingly became bullet points.
It was really, really good for so long. I've been tempted to rewatch it. Lots of series have terrible endings and are still enjoyable.
I had a realization lately that the last season didn’t just ruin GoT for me. I think it subconsciously ruined TV. I’ve not gotten invested in a non-comedy series since then.
If I'm honest, it really feels like a LOT of media got suddenly worse some time in the 2010s in general. TV, movies, big budget games - I know enshittification is a thing in every industry, but it feels like there was a major quality drop in such a short period of time.
There are obviously some exceptions, but it's like a switch was flipped, and my interest was gone. GoT was one that carried on for a while, but then it succumbed to it too.
So many writer strikes since then.
Still gems of course
The reason why the outcry over GoT's decline was so loud is that it actually managed to make previous seasons worse by its existence. All that intrigue your favourite characters were building over the previous 5 seasons? None of that ever mattered; either it got forgotten about by the writers, or the character switched into stupid mode and threw all their progress away for no reason. Once you've become aware of that, it's hard to get on board with their development on rewatch.
The Battlestar Galactica remake is like this. I love the show, but that ending seemed to go off the fucking rails
the reimagined series is too strange compared to TOS, the showrunner has a messianic(the showrunner is apparently christian faith so that may have something to do with it) vision of series, with very litle backstory into those non-corporeal beings other than they are "angels". and the failed caprica series.
Ha, this is exactly the one I had in mind with my comment. I've re-watched it many times.
I still can't bring myself to watch any of the spin offs. People keep telling me how good they are, but I was burned before and need time to learn to love again.
I don't think they are good so much as they are currently on and actively being advertised.
Yeah, that's the case with a lot of media. But I've had three different people tell me they were good and asked if I was watching. I'm gonna wait until they're over before committing.
What spin offs are people telling you are good? Inquiring minds want to know.
Knight of the 7 Kingdoms (aka Hedge Knight) was the best imo. House of the Dragon I couldnt finish the first season.
House of the Dragon, I think?
House of the dragon and knight of the seven kingdoms
Same. It's actually insane to me how quickly people were willing to forgive that shit.
My spouse actually liked the last 2 seasons and ending, I was just disappointed by last 2 seasons.
But, I'm a jaded old misanthrope that read the books 1st, up to when that was impossible, and wanted the dark theme to continue and/or time skip to happen.
Same here just finished it a few weeks ago.
I never read the books but for my money I thought the last season was really good. It maybe didnt end the way I wanted it to but it wasnt a bad ending by any means.
I have also never read the books but that last season throws every character development out the window in a show all about characters and just rushes through scenes ignoring any build up to conclude to whatever shit the writers thought no one would ever guess because it was more important for them to not be guessed than to make it make sense.
It is objectively a horrible season, doubly so in contrast to the first one.
I believe that the "I never read the books" part is a major factor here.
Very possibly so. I'm also not a huge believer in the sanctity of lore when you are adapting something to a different medium. IE, didnt miss Tom Bombadil in the Lord if the Rings movies so I'm pretty easy going as long as the adaptation is good in its own right.
::: spoiler Tap for spoiler But seriously though, fuck Bran. Terrible character, just completely uninteresting and
lameuncool from the word go. Gets Hodor killed, somehow through unexplained time travel causes Hodor's "hodor" problem. A girl takes him all the way through the frozen north just for him to say, bye now! Trash character. Ser Davos should have been King at the end. :::Also haven't read the books, but personally I felt that introducing teleportation in the last few seasons was certainly a choice
The show runners were in a rush to finish up and get to their next project (which never ended up happening). That, and the fact they ran out of source material to pull from is thought to be why the quality of the show dropped so much.
Yeah, I know. I was a fan of the show unfortunately.
I even went back a few years later and rewatched, despite all the bullshit. Still hate the last few seasons, not even just 8.
I'll second the other commenter. With your preconceived notion being "terrible," you might be pleasantly surprised and find that it's merely "rushed." GoT is partly a cultural artifact as the last genre project that truly captured the monoculture's attention (it laughs at Severance's or Stanger Things' so-called impact) before the internet shattered it, so everything good and bad about it was dramatically amplified.
Adventure Time (10 seasons though). Perfect lil 10 min. episodes to accompany a meal too.
C'mon grab your friends
Then tack on the spinoffs. The newest ones are kinda like having extra episodes from early seasons.
I just rewatched this again! Sooo good.
I've never understood why people want to watch something while eating. Chewing and crunching noise almost always results in incomprehensible dialogue.
To each their own, naturally. I usually eat stuff that’s not super crunchy and I also watch with subtitles since I have difficulty processing spoken language anyway lol
Will be enjoying my Adventure Time while sipping soup at the nursing home some day.
Unless I'm dining in a restaurant with friends, I can't start eating until I have something playing in the background. It's required!
I often have subtitles on, so no issue with the noise.
You might want to get that checked out.
"New Girl" is underrated and fits this
I enjoyed it as a casual series to watch. Can recommend as well
100% Amazing show. Worth every second of your time.
I actually very recently tried New Girl. Forced myself to finish the first episode, is the pilot that bad? Does it get better? May just not be my cup of tea I suppose but I have a hard time forcing an hour of media consumption before I get hooked lol who has that kind of spare time these days.
I started for Zooey Deschanel but halfway through I found her storylines not that great and fell in love with the rest of the cast stories.
It can be a good comfort show if you're looking for that
It does get better.
It's not my favorite show, but I don't regret the time I spent watching it.
Am caught up on One Piece up to the end of the Egghead arc, waiting for the dub of the next arc. I don't know what to do with my life now. 🙃
A bit longer ago than 15 years, but Buffy the Vampire Slayer is 8 seasons, 6 of which are perfect.
Go back further and you hit some really great trash TV no one is talking about, like Babylon 5, and Renegade. Even just the opening credits to Renegade are classic:
...are these two really comparable?
Which are the bad ones?
Season 2 is rough, and season 6 is a bit too depressing for me. 3, 5, and 7 are great.
Oh season 2 is hard but it's such a painful season and so good at making you feel. And 6 even more so. 6 isn't my favorite season because 3 and 5 exist, but it's probably 3rd. Definitely has some questionable decisions, but the making the big bad be life, the incel villains, and the raw struggles of the characters were so good. Also the musical episode was peak.
::: spoiler Tap for spoiler Tara deserved better though. And everything surrounding the rape was quite rough. :::
Season 4 is my least favorite because it just failed to hit very hard, and being sandwiched between 3 with Cordelia's face turn and Faith, Wesley, and the Mayor and 5 with Glory and just everything great about it, it's flatness was far more noticeable
I get that. 6 was almost really great at being what it really was, a long, depressing slog. Which it should have been. But that makes the clunky episodes just heavy and bad. Plus the transition from network to network... Ugh.
Musical was absolutely peak.
All of them. Joss Whedon sucks as a human and a writer.
He cheated on his wife, but loads of good writers do that. He was a raging douche to Charisma Carpenter and ruined her joy in her career. But he was a d remains a spectacular writer. Just a total hypocrite, like most people in Hollywood.
Eh I'd call him an amazing showrunner (aside from what he did to Carpenter, her absence made the show worse in addition to his behavior being wrong) and a very swingy writer. Toy Story was great, but his writing for Marvel is what really broke the spell of him as an amazing writer. Though apparently he wrote most of the best episodes of Buffy, so maybe I just dislike his writing in superhero movies.
Me with star trek. Not only is it a perfect show for me, there's a whole franchise behind it!
It's amazing how strong the fandom for it still is. I realized that if I make it to 2066, I'll have a favorite show that is 100 years old.
Didn't know you were a Trekkie /s
Me, trying not to talk about star trek in every unrelated thread:
old trek is the best, nutrek is kinda sloppy, the animated series however were decent enough.
I'm honestly so grateful for Star Trek. And there are enough episodes between TOS, TNG, VOY, DS9, and Lower Decks that I can pretty much infinitely rewatch them in an endless loop. Especially if you also throw in The Orville, The Expanse, any of the Stargates, or Battlestar Galactica into that watch loop.
Lower Decks is SO GOOD.
LD and prodigy, why continued with the live action ones, if they have been doing so bad anyways.
Toss in Babylon 5 for the Trek/Sgate/Bstar/Expanse and all spin offs rotation. That's a ton of great shows that could keep you busy for years with little overlap and breaks between franchises.
(Stares intently at aging hard drives)
So say we all!
I would also recommend Babylon 5 if you haven't tried it yet.
Babylon 5 remains one of the greatest tv shows ever made, on par with Stargate.
I went looking for the B5 recommendation, glad someone mentioned it.
I grew up with Voyager and at some point, I systematically rewatches TNG, DS9 and VOY (and TOS, this was before DIS). I watched the episodes in order of release which adds to the experience because there are reoccuring characters and narratives showing up in different shows. The shows are very episodic (except for parts of DS9) so you can watch them in any order, but if you watch them all anyways, be aware of the overlap both in release date and in the story
STD, picard was pretty bad.
borgremastered.com
and

Also is there a source for upscaled Star Trek? I'll rewatch them all if there is one?
Just watched The Closer on Netflix....
The Dick Van Dyke Show is pretty fun. Only 5 seasons but the seasons are long.
Person of Interest is both a goofy guilty pleasure, and a suddenly profound view on the dangers of AI in a connected world.
I can strongly vouch for that show.
Also, Bear! <3
Not 8 seasons or whatever, but I'm surprised I never heard of The Strain before this summer, 4 seasons and it has an ending, unlike its contemporaries, definitely recommend
The Strain was good. From that brief era where FX had a whole litany of excellent shows.
Such a great show. I’ve rewatched it through three times so far and read the original books too. I would recommend you read the books, it really enhances and expands the series.
I'll definitely watch this. This affliction gets far too little exposure. The strain is real. Finally, a show I can watch while I attempt to make an offering to the porcelain god.
ISAIP probably up to s12.
Better call Saul is such a slow burn though. It took me three tries to get through it.
Someday I will finish watching Breaking Bad
I literally had this happen with 'The Americans'
After seeing 'The Diplomat' I wanted to see something else with the same actress.
Watched all seasons pretty much back to back
Matthew Rhys is a solid actor. Him and Keri Russell are great together in that show.
Fuck me with a yellow spoon!
I literally did not realize that this was the same actor in Widow's Bay until I saw your comment.
And here I am contemplating trying to find "My Mother the Car" because it sounds stupid as fuck and I have wanted to experience the badness of it since my dad told me of its existence years ago.

If you're going to watch something from the 1960s watch this.
The Prisoner is still being watched and talked about today.
Is this the one about spies imprisoned on an island?
Funny thing.
the creator was interviewed and he pointed out that they never explicitly say that the hero is anything in particular.
He could be a lawyer, or a scientist, or an economist.
Nooo
The vagueness interests me and I'm lazy!
That would be telling
And if you like the idea of watching a classic tv series but know you won’t actually follow through on it, my favorite youtuber made a long but interesting video about it as well! https://youtu.be/s9AJlhE2-qw?is=lDIfgZ2ntNdxxUsv
I have faint memories of the theme song and I know I haven't watched the show. It might be a mind virus.
Might be ovesensitive, but wtf is happening with that audio jack. I call AI
Hol'up, are you telling me this isn't an actual screenshot from Tom & Jerry too?! /s
After having seen a few minutes of the new T&J on the screen while waiting for my Döner I still can't tell. It looked like AI to me, through and through.
HBO's The Leftovers.
My favorite show of all time. Only 3 seasons though, but I prefer 3 seasons of perfection (or damn near it) over 6+ seasons of middling quality
And a quick search says that it had a definite ending with no cliffhanger 🥰
Hilda on Netflix. (The movie is between season 2 and 3)
more than two seasons nowadays is a minor miracle
But "seasons" are single digits now. Could we average it, say, more than 20 eps?
Get a life is a series I remember fondly. However it might be nostalgia and not be that great, or maybe it hasn't stood the test of time. I don't know because it's nowhere to be found nowadays.
Get a life had both bob odenkirk and Charlie Kaufman on the writing staff.
Sort of a mixed bag closer to the end, but for the most part it's pretty brilliant.
it's currently available on tubi (us)
5 seasons but highly recommended
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Person_of_Interest_(TV_series)
I tried it, way to procedural, predictable and unbelievable.
It's not good.
I understand that concern, but I’d say that it’s one of those shows that picks up as time goes on, as there is a main plot line that is slowly established before really driving the plot. The last two seasons have some stellar episodes, with the show losing some of its procedural nature.
It is still science fiction, so of course that whenever a character hacks something it always looks dumb.
I read that it picks up, forced my way through S1 and the beginning of S2 and just could not continue, way too much cheese. I love sci-fi and could not push on.
Never heard of it but I will try that thanks to you.
The first season is like a police procedural but laying the groundwork for what's to come later. It gets more and more serialised (like Buffy).
Supernatural but the problem is after a few seasons kt gets really boring.
Can't relate. I'm intimidated by anything over 4 seasons. Too much of a commitment.
Blackadder. 4 seasons of perfection.
Just remember you don't have to watch it all at once. In fact most older shows were meant to be watched once a week.
I've seen most of them already, but I'm currently bouncing between Person of Interest and iZombie for this vibe
That was me finishing Dungeon Crawler Carl Book 8 last night.
Released in 2011, huh? Just make sure to complete it before making a judgement... You might be in for a surprise.
Pa-pah, pa-paaah, papa papa pada padadadadadadada...
The Walking Dead, aww yeah
Oof. The first few seasons were good, but it was pretty weak long before it hit season 8, let alone its final season 11.
Here I thought the final seasons were where it really shone. The episode with Negan's backstory with his wife Lucille was a masterpiece. That could've been a movie in and of its own. Made me cry.
But of course, season 1 was amazing. Season 2 was meh, and the rest between s02 and S10 were chugging along fine IMO.
Seinfeld all day.
