I can't determine whether a show is well-written within three episodes, which is about two and half hours of content? How long am I supposed to stick with something before I can dislike it? I thought three episodes was a pretty fair shot for a new shot. I thought the writing was awful and the characters extremely one note. So I bailed.
I didn't say others were terrible people for liking it. I'm perfectly comfortable with people having different opinions and tastes in pop culture. I actively disliked the show and thought the writing -- and I care more about writing than any other single element in TV/movies -- was substandard.
You are free to make the opposite case. That's how the free exchange of ideas works. But I find it telling that the fans of the show can't seem to refute my criticisms, and instead feel the need to insult me. Aside from my "so's your mom" joke, I actually put forth a logical argument. You are free to disagree with it at your leisure.
