Game of Thrones took the worst - pointless ending crown from Lost. Enjoy it, 20+ episode seasons. If you like it, there's lots for you.

>but that's not a fair comparison if you think about it.

I disagree, Tarantino had some young "uknown talent" coexists with him and they held their game.

What I would agree tho, is that either by being near him or by mere necessity, the two main actors do get WAY better by the end.

The line is maybe blurred, but it's one of my favorite shows. So imma count it.

There is an article on tvline regarding 2023 pilot season. You nailed 90% of the new shows.

I usually read them to see if there is a new sci fi show on the horizon.

Also lots of The Good xxxx or spin offs of The Good yyyy

There was only one time it really annoyed me and that was The Haunting Bly Manor when it ended one episode on a cliffhangar and then did a flashback episode explaining the ghosts before getting back to the main plot.

Too much of the last season was written by Kistis and Horowitz, who went on to create the absolute narrative mess that was Once Upon A Time

The leftovers was from a LOST showrunner, and inspired by how people reacted to the ending. No spoilers in that as there's no direct parallels but if you didn't know, now you know, they share a writer

“What do they say about the Parthenon where the Acropolis is?”

🎶I saw this thing on ITV the other week. Said that if she played with her hair, she's probably keen. She's playing with her hair well regularly. So I reckon I could well be in.

My takeaway from this is that they are discriminating against Latinos. Almost 20% of the population, yet no executive representation and only 10% of the workforce.

Very excited for this show.

Friends, That 70s show, Brooklyn Nine Nine and The Office. Honorable mention for Modern Family and Everybody hates Chris

I bet this show is going to be fun regardless of it’s past issues.

I just paid the 10 dollars for the final season. Vince deserves at least that much of my money.

Great show. My jaw hit the floor multiple times. Thanks for noticing!

Why is she holding her arms out like she's got those Black Widow wrist taser things on?

Yellowstone, where Taylor Sheridan's inability to work with a collaborative writing staff combined with his ever growing list of spinoffs/projects/ranches has taxed his ability to maintain a consistent plot that makes some sort of rational sense.

For some reason, I didn't even get the biblical allegory until a few episodes in.

Despite David vs Goliath, I guess I've just heard the name Goliath used in too many things to automatically associate it with the Bible.

Mostly Gargoyles.

Well they were originally just producing Citadel AFAIK, and then swooped in and shitcanned the writers/directors and took over the project themselves.

I think the Butch Cassidy show is the same deal, the Russo's are EPs but they're not currently attached as writers or directors on it.

They've got a bunch of projects currently ongoing, including The Electric State for Netflix which they are directing.

Richard Madden is difficult to watch in anything because he sucks so bad.

Baaaaaaaaaad. It's very frustrating for a viewer and just comes across as gimmicky. That Stranger Things one was particularly annoying and the funny thing is they released all the episodes at once so it wasn't like you had to wait a week, but it was still annoying because it ruined the momentum.

I've said it before but I think the major issue with The Last of Us is a structure problem.

God in the show is extremely subtle yet omnipresent in everything. Everyone accepts it as a matter of fact, yet as a character, God rarely shows up except to tip the scales one direction or the other. He communicates entirely through prophets and signs that aren't too overt and aren't too subtle. The one episode where satan showed up was interesting too since she clearly has the power to rain down curses and make deals with the humans too.

The writing never quite reaches the point where they could adequately explore these themes though. Definitely too high concept for network television writing constraints.

Not that there are actual writing constraints besides content rules, but network TV just almost always feels like it's been tied down to be Basic AF.

Mash , Cheers , Big Bang Theory and It’s Always Sunny.

That would be the only way for QI to never make it to Y.

What hot garbage. I kept watching to see if it would get better but it never did. At least I now know that I don’t need to watch s2 if there is one.
