Ted Lasso, there I said it. First season was funny and then became unfunny with forced drama.


Came to post this. I didn't even like season 1.

Kill Bill 1 and 2 I don't get and I like most QT films.

Better call Saul sucks. Slow as hell. Made it about a season and a half.


If you stick it out until season 3 and beyond, Better Call Saul has a stretch of episodes that is better than Breaking Bad.

Citizen Kane & 2001 regularly show up toward the top of many “best ever” lists, but I think it’s because the ones making the lists are scared to say “this is boring”

TBBT is a show making fun of the nerd/geek culture written by Hollywood hacks for low brow normies.
otoh, all that talk and not one mention of the show's central figure, Penny. hmmm. what might that tell us


otoh, it's a sitcom, dude. sitcoms are not to be taken so seriously.

Penny has great tits but the face of a Picasso painting.



Sitcoms are supposed to be funny. I don’t respect lowbrow humor with little to no creative effort. The best humor is when you can’t anticipate the punchline.

Modern Family is a good example (well the early seasons anyway).

Mad Men
I think the people that loved the show were people that lived/worked in the 60's.
More of a nostalgia thing.


I was a kid in the 60's and really enjoyed the 1st season. Seeing the men drinking and smoking at work reminded me of going to friends' dad's offices But the nostalgia must have worn off, because the 2nd season just felt like a soap opera. I quit watching it. Part of the reason I stopped it was not liking the younger people in it. Mainly hated Peggy and Pete. They became too big a part of the show.

Yeah. I got tired of everyone saying "cocksucker" as many times as possible.


You should check out a show called Spartacus. They don't talk about cocks at all, just wholesome gladiatorial combat

Anytime anyone normally brings up the Office, they should to specify US or UK. But not in this thread, because I know nobody is shitting on the UK version.
