Lost

I know this is sacrilegious on my part. But here's my picks.

What's yours?

You had me with the wire.

You had me even more with Sopranos.

And then you lost me big time with seinfeld. That show is gold, pure gold.

So my answer is your list without seinfeld. Also all of the 450 murder investigation shows.

Some aspects are objective, some are subjective.

A 10 year old epilectic writing and directing his movie will have those 2 aspects be objectively worse than a Christopher Nolan one. It could still be subjectively funnier or more enjoyable to you.

I'm sorry but you are still wrong. Objective means it can be proven with scientific measurements. Water freezes at 32 degree, that is objective. Ice is "cold" is not objective, because that statement requires opinion and perspective. None of which can be measured. All forms of art are judged on the subjective level, they cant be judged on the objective level.

What's yours?

You just posted the three most overrated shows ever.

Congrats.

Seinfeld - I've never watched an episode and wanted to watch another, but I did a few times over to absolutely sure.

The Wire - It look me three attempts over the years to get through the first season. Its an absolute bore, and I even made an thread here asking 'Does this show ever getting better' and apparently that's one of the best seasons.

The Sopranos - I watched the first three seasons with the expectations it would 'hook' me, it never did. I'll give it credit as more interesting than Seinfeld or Wire. I'll admit I've never been into gangster films and consider Godfather 1&2 just as boring.

Finally watching Rome and thoroughly enjoying it...but I get why some of you say it's overrated.

The way I'd heard it talked about, I was expecting a near-Gladiator level show, but it's on par with Vikings (which I also like) in my opinion.

 

[TankAbbott4Eva]

The Office

The UK version might be the GOAT of TV comedies, hope you're not talking about that one!

 

[Mr Mojo Lane]

The Wire

I watched the first season the the S02e01 and I had enough. It was too boring

 

[Steve-French]

The Wire

I watched the first season the the S02e01 and I had enough. It was too boring

I liked the Wire, but I could name quite a few series that I enjoyed more. I never really understood the hype.

 

[Cher Dawg]

The Apprentice, no way am i buying that guy who does the firing at the end.

 

[Ballsaque]

Yeah I prefer watching friends than the boring The Wire and the lame Sopranos. Although to each their own I'd say.

Just wow

Sopranos? Come on now. Ill go the mandalorian although I only watched season 1. First episode made it seem dope then before long I just didn't care.

Spartacus was an amazing series if you're interested in something more Gladiator like.

 

[Krixes]

We're talking overrated, not bad so I'll go with Ozarks. I think it's a good show but it's extremely overrated for what it is. It's basically a giant feminist wet dream.

 

[El Chimpo]

First season of True Detective?

What the fuck..who raised you heathens

 

[WandySaku2]

Yup. Loved Spartacus.

I'll pretty much watch anything with swords and shields (minus magic).
