YES! I agree...The Prisoner!!!
Yea, we pay the 10 bucks a month so my GF/fiance whatever can watch her Y&R and Bold & Beautiful.
ya know i’m easy to please especially with sci-fi.
It’s an ok show the hard core trekies are a bit miffed but whatever.
Like i said the Pike character is frigging awesome...they hit a gold mine with that guy...Anson Mount i believe.
Young Spock is back as well.
The Sopranos ended perfectly.
I loved the way the Sopranos passed
around whatever food they were handling,
placing it on their tongues like the
Eucharist. Their Last Supper was their
last supper.
I really liked the Weeds ending, everybody but Nancy got to be happy, that was as it should be. And Madmen was great too, Don adapted again.
As for not listing older stuff shows ending on purpose is fairly new. Sure MASH, Newhart and a few others got to wrap it up, but for the most part shows back then finished filming months before the last episode of the season aired, and found out weeks after that they got canceled. Knowing going into your last season that it’s your last season is a fairly new gift for most show runners.
Love the ending of Prisoner. Don’t answer any of the questions, it’s a show about thinking, figuring it out for yourself. That’s why McGoohan told everybody that came up to him with a theory that they were right, because that’s what he wanted. Whether or not their idea was his idea didn’t matter, they came up with an answer.
Apparently TV started in the late 80’s......
Just the bad TV.
The ending was one of the first things David Chase scripted out, everything in that scene is there for a reason.
Tell you this though...SJW runs rampant in Discovery.
women are the smart ones, most guys are weak or stupid etc.
2 flaming gay lover characters then last night while watching they introduced a THIRD, a lesbian.
ARGH....whatever
unbelievable...
i’ll still watch it though
I got to check out The Orville soon, saw the first few eps.
I really need to get a DVR
I thought the ending of House was perfect.
One of the best was Newhart, when Bob and his wife operated an Inn in Vermont. In the final scene, they showed Bob waking up from a dream, and next to him in bed was Suzanne Pleashette, the actress that played Bob’s wife The Bob Newhart Show in the 1970’s, intimating that the entire 8 year series of “Newhart” was just a dream (O. Henry-like)
Didn’t see it. I gave up on broadcast series TV years ago. You spend your time, enjoy the first couple of seasons, then it all goes to heck. Now if I want to see something, I generally wait to see how it ends. If they don’t eff it up, I’ll watch. Needless to say, I don’t watch a lotta TV.
Now I remember. The first episode turned me off. I didn’t much care for the depiction of the Klingons, either.
Yea what about Firefly?
Oh yea, frigging Fox cancelled it un-ceremoniously....like all their cool shows.
did i spell that right?
At least we got the movie..
THAT was pretty cool
NOBODY liked the Klingons.
They changed it up in season 2.
Apparently Klingons all shave their heads during time of war.
really
lol
they are a bit better now
Gilligan’s Island left the all on the island while all the guest stars managed to get off the island.
Gotcha beat. I haven’t seen a single episode of 13 of the 15. Only watched a couple seasons of “House of Cards” and quit after it went way off the rails. I did watch “Mad Men” from beginning to end and thought the ending WAS rather dopey.
Yeah, Mad Men was more about the journey than the destination.
I watched most of the first season of House (when the writers were stealing their medical mysteries from those old New Yorker pieces by Berton Roueche), and about three seasons of How I Met Your Mother. I also confess that I watched a few episodes of Two and a Half Men. Hey, it was funny sometimes, when the kid was still little.
I haven’t met many others who never saw an episode of Seinfeld.
