I always avoided this show because I thought it was melodramatic soap opera slop written for women, but I just finished binge watching it over 4 days and it was absolute kino. On par with Mad Men and The Sopranos in terms of writing and acting and quality.What did /tv/ think of it? What other intelligently written shows might I have missed out on because of incorrectly assuming they catered to a female audience?
>>223938519soap operas arent popular with women because they are written for women. soap operas are popular with women because they are the ones at home watching them and they are written to be captivating. if you watch 3 episodes of days of our lives you will end up watching at least 30 before you snap out of it.
>>223938519i wish kieran culkin had a gay sex scene with nicholas braun
>>223938519>On par with Mad Men and The SopranosI would rank it in the bottom 15-20 of hbo originalsbetter than True Blood but worse than Big Love
>>223938718yeah nah. the male equivalent of daytime soap operas is reruns or top gear and wheeler dealers
>>223938758you have never watched 3 episodes of a soap opera
>>223938766exactly
>>2239386892nd season was the weakest for me. Didn't really find the Pierce family and Jewish senator plots as captivating.
>>223938519its the best show of the last 10 years and /tv/ loved itSeason 2 is absolute peak (especially the tern haven episode)while i agree that season 4 doesnt hold up its still very good and a great ending to the show. i didnt like how they made the swedish guy a meme in the last season but how the death affected everyone was kino
>>223938519Second season almost feels like a filler season because Kendal is blackmailed into stopping coup against his father and is emotionally stunted entire season.
>>223938519SHIV'S ASSThats it. Thats the post
>>223938519anon its a sitcom that people mistake for prestige drama because brian cox is determined to not be shit
>>223938519>On par with Mad Men and The Sopranos in terms of writing and acting and quality.lol, lmao
The show is garbage and shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as Sopranos.
>>223938519Fun fact: Succession is way better than Sopranos but that's a discussion /tv/ retards aren't ready for
This show is pure goynip for bluestone citylibsYellowstone for the Obama crowd
