Great movie, the show totally sucked.

That took longer than expected.

Wait, what ? Dude, the movie was a piece of shit ! The show is AWESOME ! Alan Alda is one of the best actors ever, and practically every other line in every single episode is something you can write on anything, regardless of circumstance or occassion.

What the fuck is wrong with you ? Are you jealous that everyone there has two balls, and you have only one ?

That's basically what Martin was going for with the books in the first place, so it's translated well.

I'd agree with you but then we'd both be wrong. :D

Sherlock. The production values are good, it's directed with vim and verve, and of course Benedict Cumberbatch, besides having the most frabjous name ever, is a force in the role, with his piercing blue eyes and dandyish scarves. But.... for all the rabid fandom it inspires, I just can't get on board with this show. Most of the time I feel too browbeat with Sherlock's machine-gun rat-tat-tat fire of perspicacious, flawlessly brilliant deduction, and if it goes on too long (and frankly that's most of the time), it just sucks all the air out of a scene and leaves me as irritated as poor rumpled Watson, trying to coax more humanity out of the Benedict Difference Engine. Oddly enough, all my friends and girlfriend though I'd just love this show, and thought I was very similar to the lead character in manner and temperament. But I think just the inverse. I guess in my TV shows I need my protagonists to be emotionally damaged headcases who lay the drama on thick. Why else would I be such a huge Six Feet Under fan?

dude joss whedon is the stanley kubrick of our time.../s

anyway agreed on got.I mean it's really well done on a technical level but the writting can be clunky.

Award and Talent Shows+Singing competitions.

Oh, you have some sort of exaggerated talent that'll have you forgotten in a year! Here's a pittance compared to how much we're paying our Network Executives.

Oh! You paid us enough money to sway our vote or have been the least of a screwup this year. Have this glorified paperweight that's worth less than the entrance fee!

I miss the Gong Show.

I never really understood the appeal of The Big Bang Theory. I probably wouldn't call it overrated, I just don't get what's so funny about it.

Its a nerdy show for the American Football types. Something that makes them and their Hummer 2 feel less inadequate. For us highbrow types, we actually need something nerdy and not 'hahah linux'.
Tell me more about the GONG SHOW.

I really liked the first 3 seasons, but the tone and humor of the show changed after that... Of course, the ratings are higher for the show in the period that I don't like than they were for the show when I liked it...

I can't really do it justice by describing it myself.

Curb Your Enthusiasm. Sure, the show can be pretty funny. But it feels so repetitive and predictable after watching a couple of seasons. After the first five or ten minutes you can usually tell how the rest of the episode is going to play out.

But, but....it has Christina Hendricks in it. :)
