But I also enjoyed watching because my father and grandfather worked in Manhattan in the 1950/60s--the show is very accurate to the era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sopranos, GOT, Northern Exposure, Twin Peaks, Breaking Bad, Six Feet Under....to name just a few off the top of my head. Sure, some episodes are better than others and sometimes entire seasons can be a little below par, but it's still all good for the most part. The only show that I really enjoyed which was very inconsistent along the way was LOST. I went from loving it, to being annoyed by it, to questioning how good it was, to sort of liking it again. Without question, the creators of that show did not envision such a long run, and relatively early on went off the initial outline for the show. They were making it up as they went along and it suffers for that. Six Feet Under had maybe the greatest first season of any show I've watched. But then it just turned into this self-indulgent, people suck marathon. It got old after awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a fantastic cast, that's for sure. 4 hours ago, thenorthremembers said: Six Feet Under had maybe the greatest first season of any show I've watched.

Shows that have great 1st seasons and then spiral down the drain are almost worse than bad shows from beginning to end. Heroes was addictive and fantastic the 1st season before getting quickly flushed down the toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
row_33 Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Curb Your Enthusiasm, I hear there are plans for another, I guess they can all be in palliative care? Cheers was very solid 80% of the time and finished very strong the last 2 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 The “Rex and Doug Show” literally from beginning to end, special guest star Rob Ryan not to be missed either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 The show "Crashing" on HBO just ended. Only 3 seasons........very good all the way thru and the 3rd season was great and they nailed the final episode even though they didn't know it was going to be the series finale. All shows wish they could end like that. Ozark........it's become just a series of scenes where Justin Bateman goes to put out one fire then gets a call and has to leave to put out the next and so forth...........it's good but the writing seems rushed.........not bad but not on par with Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul at all. Rick and Morty..........been awesome so far. Takes forever between each series but what a great show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transplantbillsfan Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 I have to bring this back because I think Sneaky Pete was nearly perfect from beginning to end. I realize it was canceled, but the final episode was the perfect ending and I wouldn't want them to ruin it with another season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was still good though. Second season sucked. I almost quit watching (glad I didn’t!). I struggle to get through the 2nd season every time I’ve rewatched that series.

It was probably one of my favorite seasons, it just didn't fit in with the storyline. Edited September 13, 2020 by RaoulDuke79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I binged all three seasons during the first few months of the quarantine. Great show. I see you posted this about a year and a half ago so I don't know what you thought of season 3 but I thought that was the best one. 4th Season is apparently supposed to be the last.
