One of the few times when a show that is being declared as "The Best Shit at the Moment" actually lived up to my expectctaions, if not more.

Reply to comment by Fuzzikopf in Game of Thrones Season 4 has to be in the GOAT discussion. by Boss452
Seems kind of wonky but who knows. I think George RR Martin has grown to hate his original ending so maybe he should just canonize his favorite fan theories.

If I'm not wrong, this time it will be 4 1-hour long episodes. 2 in one season, two in another.

Just checked it out. It's definitely teen-oriented, so not really my thing.

Reply to Is “The Shield” episodic? by saulgoodman673
Shield is a matrioska in a sense that you have three main levels: the team one, their stories that encompass all the seasons until the finale; a level below there's the villain of the season one, a guy whose criminal activities run through the season, and below you got the hit of the week one where you have all sorts of episodic stories

Reply to Is Abbott Elementary overrated? by ShEditor83
Halfway through the first season, I think it’s good. All the characters mug for the camera too much though. On Parks and Rec or the Office the POV character was the only one that stared straight to camera very often, on AE every main character seems to do it 2-3 times an episode. It’s the same joke so there are diminishing returns imo.

Sorry, but the show is only going to continue to nosedive in quality. So, if you want to see the train wreck as it plays out, keep watching!

exactly and why I liked B99 so much. Yes there was Gina who was pretty bad but was really the only one of the cast that was bad. The rest of the cast were fun and enjoyable to watch. On AE most of the characters are either mean or so arrogant that the characters are unwatchable.
I don't even care if I get a laugh. Just make the characters watchable and enjoyable.

show designed to be the wholesomest wholesome thing, where every character is loveable. For hilariousness better seek in the past, actually funny sitcoms are dead

Reply to comment by Nightman463 in "Shrinking" is making me realize Hollywood fucked up by not putting Harrison Ford in more comedy roles. His dead pan comedic timing is impeccable and hilarious. by Bluest_waters
His chemistry with Jason Segel is amazing on this show. I've always really liked Jason Segel but never thought of him as a particularly great actor but this show definitely gives him the right material to really showcase his talents.

Michael Schur rip off but they turned the “look they’re all friends 🥹” dial up to 11 and the comedy dial all the way down to 0.

I think this is it's biggest failing and I'd compare it to B99 the most in this regard. It's a show all about big personalities but ultimately a lot of them can get grating and drag things down for some people.

Yellowjackets is amazing and I highly recommend it. I can't wait until The Afterparty season 2! I loved season 1 so much. I constantly watch the dance/rap clip of 2 shots whenever I need a laugh.

I'd say Abbot is a lot funnier than the Good Place, I love Good Place but more for its story, characters and the heart so its still one of the best, but pure humour wise I find it to just be good.

Yes for Perry Mason!! I wasn't sure it was coming back since it's been so long since season 1 came out.

I feel the only person in Abbot that's really too much for me is the principal. She's like Gina but worse because she's in a position of power. But the rest I can live with.
