ReplyDeleteFringe, Happy Endings and Futurama got a thumb up from me ;)
ReplyDeleteSo so sad that "Deception" got canceled and didn't have a real ending -_-
ReplyDelete30 rock :D
ReplyDeleteFringe and Breaking Bad, no doubt, I just don't understand how people can downvote them !
ReplyDelete1. Breaking Bad 2. Enlightened 3. Fringe 4. 30 Rock 5. Happy Endings
ReplyDeleteI might be the only one here but I really liked Do No Harm. Followed closely by Deception, Golden Boy and 666 Park Avenue.
ReplyDeleteI've also re-watched some Happy Endings the other day since all my comedies were on break and I felt like watching some comedy. It's so sad that it's gone! I think I even appreciate it more now. Also, Apartment 23 was always tremendously underrated IMO.
ReplyDeleteI agree. It's so sad how that one was never able to take off!
ReplyDeleteForever! I just hope that one day it pulls an Arrested Development and comes back somehow. It's just so sad.
ReplyDeleteI agree
ReplyDeleteFringe , last resort and breaking bad i up voted.
ReplyDeleteThumbs up for FRINGE and Breaking Bad. How on earth is Dexter not in last place?
ReplyDeleteI wish cable would have picked it up.
ReplyDeleteWhy would Dexter be in last place? I know a lot of people had problems with the final season, but the simple fact that people showed up for said final season after eight years (!) means that they did something right along the way. One bad season doesn't erase all that. And I personally liked the final season and was meh towards the finale, I don't have any hate towards it
ReplyDeleteAlthough I'm kind of with you on this (I loved the final season and feel pretty good about the finale), people watched it not necessarily because they thought the writers were doing things right, but kept hoping the ending would make up for what they didn't like. I always think endings can really make or break a series, because that is when the final message and philosophy is laid down. For a lot of people the idea of Dexter progressing and/or living was too much for them to bare, especially because Deb was killed the way she was...Again I'm fine with it and glad it had a transforming, but yet open ended ending and that likely Showtime will spin it off, hopefully with Hannah McKay...
ReplyDeleteActually I really agree with you too omabin. I thought the first four seasons were outstanding, and really liked S7. The final season was (imho) a complete disaster but it doesn't erase how good the show was before that.
ReplyDeleteOh I see! Then we both have a point then ;)
ReplyDeleteFor me, the only seasons I disliked were Season 3 and Season 6. Every other season was great. My favorites are probably Seasons 2, 4 and 7 though.
While I understand where you're coming from in terms of the importance of the ending, I cannot agree with that. I cannot believe that you can genuinely stick with a show for 8 years, watch 90 episodes and do not get any enjoyment/ excitement from those episodes. You can do that for a few episodes, a season, maybe even a couple of seasons, but not for that long I think. Therefore, if you take pleasure from the episodes, that doesn't go away at the end when you don't like a single episode/season - the good experience you had is still there!
ReplyDeleteExactly. I'm pretty harsh on the end of Dexter only because I loved the show so much (and still do) before the ending. I'm always baffled by people who watch something for 60, 100, or sometimes 200+ episodes and then after one thing in the story doesn't go their way, they claim the whole show was never good and that they were somehow "fooled" into enjoying the show for half a decade or more. :-(
ReplyDeleteI personally am like you, where I get enjoyment even if I don't like an ending (BSG is my example for myself), but I have read too many comments during Dexter's final season to not believe that some people really didn't enjoy the show itself, barely hanging on for the last few episodes (and ratings dropped through out the whole thing If I remember correctly). I think another facet is that people "love to hate" -so I guess in that you would be correct. :p
ReplyDeleteI think the difference is that you believe people when they say that they actually don't like the show anymore and that the whole thing was a waste when they don't like the ending and I do not (for the most part... I do believe there are a few people that could actually experience shows that way, but that is extremely rare IMO). Also, Dexter actually ended on a series high, the ratings were increasing each season I think. I agree on the love to hate though :P
ReplyDeleteThe ratings incresed until the final season, which is what we were talking about...If people would have had comments but the ratings stood steady or climbed rather than dropped than I wouldn't have given their words substance and I would have agreed with you. However to support you, 13 million viewers tuned into the finale did they not ;)
ReplyDeleteAh sorry I had misunderstood you ;)
ReplyDeleteFringe and Nikita are the main ones! Wow, what a year though. I enjoyed 90210 even though the finale was ridiculous and too rushed, and liked Don't Trust the B, Ben and Kate...and I had a soft spot for Deception. Merlin was great; I still need to finish watching the last couple of seasons.
ReplyDeleteFringe, Nikita, and Burn Notice I all miss.
ReplyDeleteJust added Skins.
ReplyDeleteThough I don't know whether UK series count... do they?
I was confused by Merlin but then I remembered it aired the final episodes in the US during 2013
ReplyDeleteI just added Necessary Roughness but it added the movie and not the t.v. show...?
ReplyDeleteNo worries and besides we can't agree all the time :D
ReplyDeleteRIPPER STREET!!!!! *Tears fallin!
ReplyDeleteHeartwarming to see Nikita in second place. :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't watch almost anything else on the list, which I guess means I'm one lucky TV aficionado. I watched like a season of Fringe, it was a good show but I couldn't get into it personally. Gave up on Cult after 2 episodes. Watched most of Last Resort but couldn't even bring myself to finish it, too many irrelevant side plots. I used to say the show didn't deserve to be cancelled, but the more episodes I watched, the less focused and tightly plotted it seemed to be.
Anyway - a hug for everyone who had a favorite show of theirs cancelled this year. May you soon find a new addiction to fill the void. :)
I have to say, even as a huge (and I mean *huge*) Nikita fan, I think it was for the best that Season 4 was the last. After the destruction of Division, it seemed the show was heading towards a natural conclusion, and nothing would've been worse than having it drag on after the writers have run out of ideas. I just wish Season 4 could have been longer, as they were left with a ton of story threads to resolve in just 6 episodes. The result was a very rushed, not quite satisfying ending. I liked the finale and think they wrapped the story up well enough, but they definitely could have given us a much more "whole" ending with 13 episodes. Even 10 would've made a lot of difference.
ReplyDeleteBreaking Bad, everything else on the list is irrelevant!
