TV Thread - beware, [expletive] can get spoilery

Finished up my rewatch of all 9 seasons of The US Office and season 14 of Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Trying to decide now whether to rewatch How I Met Your Mother for some Barney Stinson goodness or to try watching something new.

I think of all recent-ish sitcoms, it'll have aged the worst when it comes to rewatching. Leaving aside the genuinely rotten ending, one of the main characters is 100% a rapist, and the rest of them? They aren't comedically awful people, they're just awful, but we're supposed to like them.

I can go on, as it appears hate for what HIMYM turned into is still burning bright in my soul, but I'd rather not. Watch something new, andymoor!

Season 2 of Fargo was not that great IMO. Went too far into absurdia with the epic level of body count -making the this is a true story thing at the beginning a dumb repetitive joke.

The Good Place never lived up to it's first season for me. I always liked it, but that first season was just an incredible season of television, any genre (like Lost if was ever the least bit gratifying/satisfying), and didn't have to give up being incredibly funny as a comedy to do it. It was so tight that everything after it kind of felt like scrambling to me.


Mystic Quest is really great. Will fill the Silicon Valley shaped hole in your heart.

Did anybody ever watch Brockmire when it was on? I ran across it on Hulu a week or so ago and have been working my way through it. I'm into it pretty big.

i never did 'cause i think it was a showtime production (edit: IFC ) but when i'd see azaria promoting it i always thought it looked good.

It was on IFC.

I watched the first season and the 1st episode of the 2nd season, but that was all. I always meant to go back to it, but didn't.

If I had Hulu, I'd catch up on it. I think I can see the full last season (4?) on demand, but am hesitant to watch it without seeing seasons 2 & 3.

[tlombard]

I'm on season 3 right now and while I know nothing of the fourth yet, I feel like you would really miss a lot by skipping to the final one for sure. A lot happens in between.
