me with gamechanger recently
And it just keeps getting better.
There’s nothing sweeter than the pain of catching up…
This is my favorite Mickey Mouse meme:
I wish I could erase my memory of House M.D. and watch that masterpiece all over again. There isn’t a shitty episode. Not one.
One thing always pained me about that series. I know it’s whole thing was that every episode followed pretty much the same formula, but I wish they had one episode that was just House working in the clinic for a day and diagnosing like 40 patients in a row. We get a few small scenes when he has to spend a few hours there dealing with the general public, but they’re few and far between.
Season 3, episode 12 (“One Day, One Room”) is probably the closest to that.
It isn’t all House in the clinic, all the time, but I think he only works clinic cases in that episode.
House MD is a great show, and I partially identified with House at the time I viewed it. Now, more spiritually inclined and aware that the world is an illusion and is ultimately dependent on the entanglements created through intention-setting, I see House much like my father; very logically-oriented but missing the point. There are more complex systems than what the universe presents as it’s empirically-defined system. The universe is a divine clock, alright, but therein, there is greater complexity at play that bestows each of our parallel-generated experiences. We are not featherless bipeds on an Earth, but rather each of us is a unique pocket of consciousness that is procedurally generated based on intention-setting, and our intentions are reconciled with countless others to generate the realities most likely to wake us up to this process, and my awareness piqued twelve years ago and I speal from gnosis of having followed the whispers of God; logic (Adam) is only half the equation, and our intuition (Eve) will understand reality truly before that which House defined his life by.
On a scale of Martha Stewart to Snoop Dogg, how high are you right now? Im at least a Weird Al interviewing Snoop/Dogg but im still having trouble following you.
Didn’t think that people of your intelligence could find House MD good
Stargate SG1.
if you drink while you watch it, you can rewatch it as many times as you want and you’ll always find something new.
Just gunna tack on Stargate Atlanits and, yes, even Universe to this recommendation.
SGU was gone too soon 😞
Rewatch every 8 years or so. Still good after the 3rd re-watch this year.
Episodes are very long
The 40 minute standard of when TV shows were still made for TV program is shorter than most high level streaming show episodes nowadays.
I think you’re in the wrong thread.
your argument against, is the whole point.
The Expanse is well worth your time.
I just started watching this, again. So, good.
Mr. Robot but 11 years ago and only 4 seasons
With trash ending
what would have qualified as a ‘good’ ending to Mr. Robot for you? i prefer a series that accomplishes its narrative intent within a few seasons, then bundles its loose ends up nicely and concludes, rather than one that persists indedinitely for no good reason.
Mr robot lost me in like season 2 or 3. Can’t remember, but it felt like it went off the deep end compared to the setup in season 1
The Dick Van Dyke Show is pretty fun. Only 5 seasons but the seasons are long.
Me with Wire, Breaking Bad and House.
You mean back when a “season” meant 26 episodes and not 9?
Pirating old TV was just a storage commitment for that. Crazy that over time the file size got larger but it’s less of a problem
I could get half a season of Friends on a written CD with divx. I’d say the bottleneck was the DL speed for that era.
I should have burned DVD’s. Wasn’t an option I had available back then
Scrubs for me.
The new season is just as good.
In high school I would watch the entire series, then when I watched the final episode at the time, I’d start again on My First Day. Just loop that shit.
A man of culture.
A bit longer ago than 15 years, but Buffy the Vampire Slayer is 8 seasons, 6 of which are perfect.
Go back further and you hit some really great trash TV no one is talking about, like Babylon 5, and Renegade. Even just the opening credits to Renegade are classic:
He was a cop, and good at his job. But then he committed the ultimate sin and testified against other cops - gone bad. Cops who tried to kill him but got the woman he loved instead. Framed for murder, now he prowls the badlands. An outlaw hunting outlaws, a bounty hunter - a renegade!
Babylon 5, and Renegade
…are these two really comparable?
Which are the bad ones?
All of them. Joss Whedon sucks as a human and a writer.
He cheated on his wife, but loads of good writers do that. He was a raging douche to Charisma Carpenter and ruined her joy in her career. But he was a d remains a spectacular writer. Just a total hypocrite, like most people in Hollywood.
Scrubs. I’ve played it all the way through to fall asleep at least 20 times.
And the revival is pretty good! Looking forward to season 2
The revival hit really well! They did not disappoint! In fact I’ll go so far as to say they went above my expectations!
What in the world, Judy Reyes (Carla) hasn’t aged a day.
Oh my god I did not know! Thaaaaank youuu.
Wait, so you still haven’t actually “seen” it all then lol.
Oh no I’ve watched it through many times as well.
He can’t watch it all on his own, he’s no Superman.
The Walking Dead, aww yeah
Oof. The first few seasons were good, but it was pretty weak long before it hit season 8, let alone its final season 11.
