How many goes through of the wire have you had Lonzy? I have watched it 4 times (only bothered with season 5 twice). Don’t think I’ll bother with it again

#54

Once. And that was before all the cretins tuned in.

4 is pretty good man. I’m on the 3rd time at the moment. gets better and better every time

I’ve watched all the Curbs about 5 times now. some episodes I’ve watched 15+ times. no worries

do I win some sort of prize?

#56

The best example was this one. Three storylines all climaxing in one episode!

#57

Breaking Bad is good right up until Gus’s arc reaches completion. The neo-nazis in the final season come from nowhere and never quite feel real.

Also, the plane crash in season 2 - was it season 2? That never quite gelled with me. An air traffic controller feeling quite upset wasn’t a satisfying “explanation” to all the odd flash-forwards that had peppered the season.

I don’t rewatch comedies in order, just random episodes, but pretty sure I’ve seen every golden era simpsons 5+ times each, and seen every curb at least twice

#59

4th was probably the best one. unlucky.

#60

Yeah, comedies are fine (apart from the fucking Simpsons)

#61

you don’t like the simpsons?

not sure what this means or where you’re drawing the distinction.
seen people say things like ‘the wire is journalism’ but not really buying that, we all watched it for the same reason we watched breaking bad, i.e. the characters, writing and plotlines

there are a lot of Curbs i’ve only seen once, i’ve been gearing up for a complete rewatch.

i’ve watched the first 3 seasons of Arrested Development about 10 times probably. only watched season 4 once though.

#66

I did 15 years ago but now it makes me want o puke my guts up.

#67

This is definitely untrue

#68

man. I 100% guarantee I have never watched it. I used to be a miserable, contrary cunt, so would not buy into any popular 90’s/00’s culture, despite my friends mocking me about it

and then I grew up and still never watched it

#69

end of season 4 works quite well as a nice happy ending doesn’t it

first half of season 5 felt very tacked on, in a “why is he still doing this?” way but second half was good in a proper bleak sort of way obviously

Thought the end of season 2 was so bad, stopped part way through season 3 as his wife knows so it feels like it’s done. Might finish it as I suspect the chicken restaurant guy does something

I’m just trying to rile people by dissing a programme I didn’t particularly care for
