Maybe the most pretentious show in tv history. I'm not sure what I hated more, the show or the people who watched it. It and St Elsewhere were the biggest yuppie dramas of the day, and were impossible to sit through.

Everything is pretentious with you?

In so many of your posts?

Do you even know the definition.

This wasn't a show about teenagers acting like all their minor calamities were the worst things to ever happen in mankind. This was not a stupid teenager version of mumble-core.

These were adults with real issues...cancer, children, parental problems, adult relationships where no problem was exaggerated...in fact, contrary to pretentious, it was muted...and complicated.

There were some bad characters but it was refreshing for once to see adults have problems on TV that didn't involve war or drug addiction. TV shows shouldn't be stupid Ozzie and Harriet or at the only other spectrum...MASH.

Every day adult problems...that are complex inter-personal.

Not every show can be Dukes of Hazzard. (I'm assuming you didn't think that was pretentious and loved it.)
