Forsaken Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Deadwood above all. I will say that right now. Watch that show IMMEDIATELY. Be nice if I can find a cheap way to watch Walking Dead and Breaking Bad. I wanted to watch Mad Men but Miser ruined it for me.Netflix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downzy Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I will end up watching it, but I've just got so much TV to get through - Deadwood, The Shield, Season 4 of Breaking Bad....Watch the shows that have already come out before you start in on a show that's still being produced. That way you won't have to wait on a weekly basis for a new episode of Game of Thrones. But it is a bad ass show, so long as you don't mind watching a horse have its head chopped off.

She's annoyed me since the show began.I liked her in the beginning, first season, maybe second as well, that overly mature child thing, calling grown ups on their bullshit. Problem is that kind of character gets very annoying very fast as they grow up into a teenager (same with Shane from Weeds), just like in real life I suppose.

TombRaider Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I'm currently hooked on Lost. Never saw it when it originally aired on TV. I watched the first 2 seasons in a week and just started season 3. I know about the unanswered questions and about how much of a disappointment the finale was. But still. I like it. It´s nowhere near as good as Breaking Bad though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been a much better ending that the bollocks they went over in season 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GivenToFly Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 If you care much about the story it's hard to enjoy Lost because the head writer Damon Lindelof is terrible with little mitigation (also see Prometheus). It's more about interesting characters and some awesome moments and dialogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TombRaider Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Just finished watching the season finale of The Walking Dead and I can say I won't be tuning in for Season 4. TWD has a lot of unrealized potential and I think they just need better writers. Unlikeable characters standing around as if they were pondering over philosophical questions relating to mankind does not make for good TV. I know it's not supposed to be a videogame with zombies every 5 seconds, but I'm just bored of this turkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many literary and classical references made that the show provides far more depth than almost any other show. If you have the inclination or time, I highly recommend reading Doc Jensen's column on ew.com as he provides a point by point analysis for each episode (http://www.ew.com/ew/package/roundup/0,,20313460_20315034,00.html). Like I said, the more time and effort you put into the show the more you get out of it. A surface level examination will render you opinions like those expressed above. Take the time to learn what the writers and producers are incorporating into each show and you'll get way more out it.I thought the finale and last season was great. The show would have had no sense of finality had it ended in the fifth season. There were still tons of story lines and character issues that needed to be resolved. Yes, some episodes in the last season really tanked, but I thought the finale was awesome. Season five is a bit of a challenge, so it's good you're watching it all at once as it was difficult to follow when watching on a weekly basis. As for Prometheus, not sure what you mean by "little mitigation." Do you mean little imagination? If that's the case, really have to disagree with you on that. Like Lost, there's a lot compacted into the script that really needs a second or third viewing. Again, like Lost, if you just want to turn your brain off and enjoy it for its action and whatnot, you're going to miss a lot of what the movie is trying to do. If you have the time, read this: http://cavalorn.livejournal.com/584135.html. I wish more tv shows and movies were made with these types of considerations in mind. It gets so boring when everything is so on the nose all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Glow Inc. Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Well, the problem with Prometheus is not that it takes several viewings, it's that it tries very hard to be something and never manages to achieve it because some "details" are way too retarded to ignore.
