Why is this show obsessed with Mike's initial lie?


Is anyone still fascinated by the implications of Mike not being a Harvard grad?

reply

Lol it's called a lack of creative ideas

Its the entire impetus behind the show.

That's like asking "Why is Avengers Age of Ultron so obsessed with Ultron?" Or "Why is Lost so obsessed with why they're on the island?"



God does not build in straight lines.

Agreed.

His lie lead to the mess they all find themselves in today. Think the sidestories also add a lot to the entertainment value.

No, it's not. Every episode wasnt about Mike's lie ... just an increasing amount until the present day.
