TV show you started watching expecting to hate ....


The Conners

I just started it last week, its pretty good. Has some unique storylines.

UnReal.

I have never watched the Bachelor or Bachelorette nor would I, but I really enjoyed the first season and second seasons of UnReal.

I had to watch several seasons of One Tree Hill for a job, and by the end of it I was completely on board with the cheesy teen drama.

reply

What job was this?

reply

DVD quality assurance.

reply

Sure. That's the excuse i used when I binged One Tree Hill too.

reply

One of us actually got paid to enjoy it, and last I checked it's not you. :-)

reply

When I purchased the box set the special features were flimsy at best. How is scene selection a special feature? And an interview with Mouth? You were not doing a good job with quality control!

reply

Haha, as a fellow special features junkie I totally get it. Unfortunately, decisions like that are made in an entirely different area of the production line. QA/QC is more geared towards making sure the disc loads properly, that the menus can be navigated, identifying subtitle errors or flaws in video encoding to name a handful of items.

THAT IS A JOB I NEEDED TO KNOW ABOUT....I DO THAT SHIT FOR FREE ALL THE TIME.

^There's an example of one such job. Imagine something like that except based in Burbank.

I don't watch gameshows usually, but this one will never stop being hilarious.

I love the announcers on Japanese game/reality shows.

Ted

Same. That was better than it had any right to be.

reply

I liked the teddy bear parts.

reply

The kid who played little Mark Wahlberg was pretty damn funny too imo.

reply

I OWN EVERY SEASON OF THE SIMPLE LIFE WITH PARIS AND NICOLE....TERRIBLE SHOW...TERRIBLE PEOPLE...EXCEPT I KIND OF LOVE IT.

reply

The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live (2024)

Went into this with lowered expectations, given the track record of TWD spin-offs being more of the same old shit, but this was surprisingly good & tightly paced. The finale felt rushed though, but overall, this is the best spin off so far.

reply

The Exorcist

I only waited 8 years to stream it, I was that keen. It was decent, not all that scary, but entertaining.

reply

Better Call Saul. I wasn't really a huge fan of the character in Breaking Bad.

And courtroom shows are just NOT my thing. With the exception of Boston Legal. That show was excellent.

But BCS turned out to be one of the most well written shows I've ever watched. The directing, cinematography & performances were also fantastic. Not a single bad character/performance.
