Mine is that Breaking Bad, The Wire and The Sopranos - often touted as the 'big three' TV shows simply hold no interest to me. I recognise that they're all done very well and probably at the peak of their genre, but I don't really like crime, gangster and especially police shows.
Andy Samberg is obnoxious as a lead of anything, and Brooklyn 99 is unwatchable because of him.
Halo wasn't that bad, and was probably in a higher tier of television than the tie-in books were of novels, or even just sci-fi novels.
Similarly, Foundation was never gonna get filmed in anything like its book form, and it would be unwatchable if it were.
She-Hulk and Ms. Marvel are fun and good.
Hopefully not that hot of a take, but Girls5eva is a hidden gem.
Archer is nicely coasting to its finale and never went too far down the road of Flanderization or treating the characters as interchangeable zinger delivery systems (well, not more than it ever did). Also, the Coma seasons are really cool.
also, the original cut of arrested development season 4 is superior in every way, and the season as a whole is pretty good. season 5 is borderline unwatchable, tho

Anything beyond a planned arc is almost always shit. That's usually 1-2 seasons. Most tv would be better as limited series.
God yes. They write out an amazing two seasons; but then MONEY and suddenly oh season 3 -9 sure why not….
Well it's unusual for shows to get anywhere near season 9 these days

Well done, you're objectively wrong on multiple points!
Boy gets personally offended when a stranger doesn’t like his favorite cartoons
The entire point of the thread is to post unpopular opinions, chucklehead.
Yet you seem to think there’s objectivity in someone’s opinions, chucklehead 🤣🤣🤣
I guess the shops are all sold out of senses of humor, huh?
👍 your inability to make a funny joke doesn’t say much about my sense of humor, chucklehead
You're the only one angry about not getting the joke ...
Moving pictures are a mistake. We peaked with old-time radio dramas.
The old time radio drama station was the only reason I had satellite radio for a while. The Shadow radio drama is magnificent.
You don't have to listen to it over "radio" just because it was originally broadcast over the radio.
All of Netflix's 'anime' shows look like garbage. The only well-animated shows are the ones they've licensed.
Geofencing is utter fucking bullshit.
Kill all the regions or we keep pirating!
How is that unpopular?
ross carried the show and the other friends were just in his orbit
Streaming has already become cable 2.0
also, the original cut of arrested development season 4 is superior in every way, and the season as a whole is pretty good. season 5 is borderline unwatchable, tho
