What show has the worst quality to popularity ratio? First one that comes to mind is Yellowstone. This is a truly terrible show, with nothing but godawful characters and soap opera writing. Despite that, it is massively popular and not just that but it garners extremely zealous fans who literally think it's the best show ever made. People identify so strongly with Beth, who is an utterly morally bankrupt, rude, condescending, disgusting piece of shit through and through. They identify with Rip who is a murderous attack dog with no mind of his own completely devoid of anything resembling an ethical core. God I hate this show.

>>216484729Twin Peaks.
Yellowstone was pure kino for like 2 seasons, then it went downhill fast.
>>216485441this, the first couple seasons are great. then it turns into a bit of an unfocused soap operatic mess, then it goes pants on head retarded with the iraq war vet son getting into gunfights with automatic weapons and executing vanloads of enemy goons in the street with absolutely zero consequences because they are friends with the sheriff or whatever. never did finish it, i couldn't make it past S4-ish
>>216484729ruralfags in south america love this show and copy rip and kayce
>>216485551I mean South America has a huge cowboy culture and dominate bullriding
Lost. It was fucking awful
Sons of Anarchy Breaking Bad / BCSEntouragewere all shows everyone loved and I couldn’t get into at all
>>216485491This is the craziest part. I remember when they had to kill people in a very specific way (train station) to avoid the consequences, then they go shinra tensei in Montana and no one cares.The show changed too much. At first, the Dutton were ruthless people who wanted to preserve the ranch, then they turned into a wacky family who only fought bad guys.I miss the cowboy ops stuff like dynamiting the creek to fuck with the businessman, Rip killing the coroner etc.
>>216485491>then it goes pants on head retarded with the iraq war vet son getting into gunfights with automatic weapons and executing vanloads of enemy goons in the street with absolutely zero consequencesI feel like this happened in the first seasons too. I can't remember but his retarded son kept getting in trouble with kidnappers and fucking snakes and shit.Also I just remembered the scene where the fake Native mom gives a bath to the 13 year old son and they talk about his erection. Like what? The b-plots in these Sheridan-slops are always so dumb, the constant animal/bandit attacks and the dinosaur bones and everything. In every episode something really EXCITING has to happen. In Yellowstone they get attacked by bears, in the first episode (I think) of 1923 they get attacked by a tiger.
>>216485571i know, but it's still as ridiculous as the guys who copy tv psychopaths. every male in my family who watched yellowstone immediately became obsessed with american modern country music, and i know a few yellowstone fans who even changed their appearance to look like kayce or rip
>>216484729It really turns to shit around season 3 when the writing pivots to focus on the Lady Cunt and her boytoy cowboy.
>>216484729yellowstone is just this eras version of Dallas. It is just a dumb soap opera but I wouldnt say its the worst popular show. Big bang theory and the endless NCIS/Law and order shows are the worst things to me
>>216485848Nobody considers TBBT or any procedural to be the greatest show ever made. There is a massive contingent of 90 iq boomers that think Yellowstone is. It's far more overrated.
>>216485880no, boomers just think yellowstone is the best thing on tv currently. they would still say something much older was better
>>216484729why is it called yellowstone if its not set in yellowstone itself? did somebody name that stupid ranch after the giant national park, and if so why? I will never watch the show so im just curious
>>216486010It's what the fictional ranch is called in the show. Probably chose the name cause it makes for a good show title.
>YellowstoneIf you think anything written by Taylor Sheridan isn't the gayest shit you've ever seen, the only reason is because you're gayer
>>216486027I would have called it rch white people stone. because the shows about a billionaire who just larps as a cowboy
>>216484729So this show wants you to root for the Duttons to keep muh ranch but at the same time has a fuckton of the mandatory Taylor Sheridan injun white guilt scenes. Very confused messaging, why would the audience root for them to keep the ranch if you're always chastising them for having stole it supposedly?
>>216486145Because its a show for people that wish they owned a big ranch but also pretend they are good, hardworking people. Its wish fulfillment and self insert escapism.
>>216484729Outside of the absurdly hamfisted MUH RACISMS, and the boomer trope that all your problems get solved when you punch someone in the face bullshit, what's so bad about Taylor Sheridan?
>>216486408Sicario and hell or high water are his best things by a wide margin. I dont really give a shit about all his tv shows
>the daughter extremely hateable nasty vile cunt>the actress makes her further unlikeable - not a bad actress, simply not a likeable one, a bit like Anna Gunn>but the show obviously wants you to think she's a badass girlboss that you should like lmao
>>216484729<soap opera writingThat's every fucking show that is currently airing no matter what its based on, no matter the content or genre
Beth's tits are god tier tits, fight me
>>216486408>>2164864521883 would be a really great season of television if TS had reduced the amount of attention he gave to the daughter character by about 80%. She's nice to look at but her narration is godawful (the writing there sucks too) and her muh love plotlines are insufferable. The ending worked for me but I don't think she needed to be the complete focus of the latter third of the show to have that payoff. The country singer couple were surprisingly excellent in it and Sam Elliot gives his career best performance. All 3 of them were written excellently. That's the problem with Taylor Sheridan, he has moments of excellence but then just entirely flubs other parts of the show.
>>216486494thats why modern tv sucks. theres hardly any currently airing shows worth watching
>>216486498What's there to fight about? She has really nice tits. She also looks great in general for someone pushing 50 overall.
>>216486145It's like if The Sopranos wanted the audience to think the characters were unironically cool instead of evil retards.
>>216486498Affirmative.
>>216486452And Sicario at least was heavily rewritten, which shows because of all his stuff it contains the least Sheridanisms in the dialogue (and coincidentally is "his" best work).
>>216486549thats a good reason why sopranos has aged so well. basically every character is too stupid or embarrassing on some level for the audience to really think are "badass"
>>216486575I dont see any tits in this picture
>>216484729walking dead
>>216484729If it's so popular how come I had never heard of it?Check and mate, atheists.
>>216486612he's probably a footfag, hence retarded.
>>216486618never got why this show got so popular. to me it was like sons of anarchy but with zombies instead of bikes
>>216484729I dropped this show halfway through season one because I was not putting up with Beth's attention whoring for another 50 episodes. The show presents itself as grounded and realistic, but in the real world that ginger cunt would have had the shit beat out of her many times over.
>>216486747She does get the piss beaten out of her and nearly raped in one of the later seasons tbf
>>216486658You must not have to spend much time with older people. This show is crack for the 55 and older crowd.
>>216486747
>>216486498>>216486575ok, well where are said tits?
>>216487053This is a blue board.
>>216487069not impressed
>>216487170Blue boards never are.
>>216486763Brilliant never-done-before character growth moment for a female character. Bravo Sheridan!It has to happen in every show at least once.
Never watched Yellowstone but it did help cement in my mind how utterly ignorant the vast majority of Americans are. Im a cowboy btw
>>216486690Not as much as a boringtard like you though
>>216487492Good one, Tarantino.
>>216487314I remember when female characters were charming, humble, and put the needs of others above their own. This was deemed internalized misogyny so now every woman needs to be a loudmouth narcissist.
>>216487575>every woman needs to be a loudmouth narcissistI mean, that is more accurate to reality
>>216487575Those got always raped as a character building moment too, anon.
>>216486479>girlbossi just woke up from a coma since 2020... wtf does girlboss actually mean?
>>216487682It means a girl who is the boss
pretty much every Star Wars movie ever made... the writing is atrocious, acting is terrible, and stories are always trite.
>>216487719Correct.
Notice how they're aware that their life is in danger 24/7 and they're basically at war, but their actions never reflect it, just their words. Their security is shit. Bad guys routinely come into their ranch or the office without problems, despite them supposedly being badass cowboys. I think this is how Beth got fucked up, she made threats to the bad guys and they made threats back, then she just went back to the office without a care in the world and they came to kill her. Duh, what a surprise.This annoyed me with The Walking Dead when I watched the first season, too. They don't really act like they live among zombies, sometimes they just forget to post any security or they use melee weapons and risk being infected for no reason other than to be cool.
>>216486713>zombiesalways popular since the majority of the rabble are literally zombies politically, culturally, and spiritually
>>216487853zombies arent popular anymore. it was a huge thing in the 2010's and thats about it
>>216487853You're so right. They're cringe, but at least we are based.
>>216486587There are a good number of gen xers and boomers who unironically look up to Tony soprano >>216486803Horsegirls too, literally every horsegirl has seen Yellowstone
>>216488606there are dumb people who enjoy sopranos on a very surface level way. even people who fast forward through/skip the dr. melfi scenes basically missing the entire point
>>216486058>Taylor SheridanHell or High Water was quite good and Wind River was okay. Wonder why his other stuff sucks. Different co-writer?
>>216488941Sicario is the best of all of them. if you havent watched that, do it now
>>216488606>look up to Tony sopranoHe can be smart, charming, and funny of course. Likable that is, partly.
>>216488975Didn't know he wrote it. It's good, only Villenueve flick I like.
>>216484729It's basically just Dallas 2
>>216488606>There are a good number of gen xers and boomers who unironically look up to Tony sopranoYes, and David Chase disliked those viewers and wrote scenes against that idea, whereas Yellowstone is seemingly written to be like that on purpose. You're meant to listen to Kevin Costner's retarded metaphors about wolves and him owning the city-slickers and liberals and think he's fucking awesome.
>>216489065Sheridan wrote the first script, Villeneuve or his writers rewrote a lot of it. That's why it doesn't really seem like a Sheridan movie.For example, in the original script Benicio del Toro only kills the cartel boss and not his family in the end so he's more of a typical hero seeking justice.
>>216484729I just wanted Beth's character to die and I wanted Jaime to be happy.
>>216489367I just wanted to dump infinite loads into Beth
>>216484729Did forget about the good old "it's okay to kill someone if he steps into your land" morale, with the protagonist literally saying "we're the good vs evil" while arguing for that. America never ceases to amaze.It's a shame considering that 1883 and 1923 were actually not bad
>>216485441The reason for that is because it was suppose to end after what season 1? It's obvious with the season finale of either 1 or 2 (the one where they stole little tatter tot) >that whole 'you're my son Rip' >the random ass big bad just running in a field like a nobody dying unceremoniously with no pay off >nothing really 'ending' It's obvious it was just suppose to end, but when they immediately got green lit for the next season they had to rewrite it to keep going.
>>216484729I'm just glad the Duttons lost everything at the end and the Dutton clan is no more.That faggot John Dutton could've become a fucking billionaire if he sold or developed that land.But no, that idiot wasted all that land on fucking ranching of all things.
>>216486479>you should likedid we watch the same show?she's a clearly unlikeable psychopathic murderer who fantasizes about killing her brother.or maybe Taylor Sheridan believes that all problems are solved by killing anyone you disagree with.
Anything with Sara Gilbert in it. The only thing worse than her horrid appearance is hearing her nails-on-chalk-board CUNT voice / inflection. Seriously she's the female Ben Affleck ... luckiest sons-of-bitches in the history of Hollywood who would be just another working stiffs in any other something-resembling-sane timeline.
