It is. You can't add an opinion flair on this subreddit for some reason.

Feel free to disagree

The only metric they care about is viewership and subscribers, so that’s not really true

I can see how $3 a month could be too high stakes for the apathy contingent tho

The new ending is even worse than the original.

Because you're already saying it's bad if you're saying it needs to get better.

I feel like the reason they are only marketing the show by hyping up Bob Odenkirk is very telling.

Not anymore it doesnt.

Haven't watched the second yet but I liked the first one a lot. College campuses are an underused setting for shows/movies these days, it seems, and there's something that really engages me about how low the stakes are but how heightened the drama around it seems to be. Odenkirk is great and the supporting cast is full of under-appreciated actors. I also laughed out loud several times in the premiere. Perhaps the expectations were way too high being so near the end of BCS but that didn't affect it for me, I really enjoyed the pilot, will probably watch the second one tonight.

They do?

I didn’t get that impression although I did get the impression that they are as close as they’ve ever been since childhood.

They’re at least as weird but o found that each season has a pretty easy to understand core to it.

I also really enjoy the visuals.

This show is fucking excellent.

it is not good, its the kind of show that HBO would make in like 2007 and cancel mid season

The trailer was bad, won't even watch the show.

I recently watched Lost for the first time, and posted some questions here. About a million people weighed in. Lost was a phenomenon when it originally aired. People who watched it at that time carry deep nostalgia, and are more than happy to talk about it with someone who just caught up.

Lost was about being lost. The characters, writers and viewers were all lost most of the time. That was the charm. There were some quotes from Lost, but more come from comedies. Sopranos is mafia, and they always have some good lines.

I agree, it's terrible. I was looking forward to this show for months, but after watching the first 2 episodes I'm done. It's not even clear what the point of it is, and it's not funny or engaging in any way.

This is one of my favorite shows. It wraps things up almost perfectly for me.

eh.. it's reddit at the end of the day

Lost is one of the 3 most influential TV shows along with The Sopranos and The Office so I’m not sure what you’re talking about. I don’t think The Sopranos has a much stronger foothold in actual pop culture than Lost, I don’t see significantly more Sopranos discussion than Lost, and depending on what you watch, I would say Lost is even MORE discussed. Does any reviewer talk about Yellowjackets without referencing Lost?

It’s seriously messing with my head.

Thank you! Im honestly just as confused as you are and I wish people would explain what their downvotes mean.

This is what I was asking other people but for some reason, I keep being downvoted.

Many people have said that Mindhunter is great because of the Ed Kemper scenes. I wanted to know if that was really the only reason for watching it so thank you for clarifying with an actual response.

I just asked a question because the use of the word “peaks” would usually mean that it doesn’t get better after that. Im not saying that’s my actual opinion (as I haven’t watched it) but I just wanted to know if that’s what the commenter meant.

Because they were very good the whole way through. Both shows you listed had pretty famous fall-offs (people have a better respect for Lost now but the ending was really hated at the time, Dexter famously fell off after season 4, I liked the reboot though) quality tends to last longer

You can support a show without supporting the network. They should see that their subscription is pointless and they should be using ads to let people watch free

For now…

LOST included creative decisions that are now routinely incorporated into TV shows. It's hard to notice now, similar to how the first season of Seinfeld looks rough to anyone who didn't watch it when it actually first aired.
