    That was a terrific show... The precursor to the Wire in many ways

    I never heard of it before this thread. Excellent show but the later series are difficult to find, pity.

    Honestly, it is just as well... The last couple of years, the show strained belief

    LOST-just watch the first episode and I'll tell you the ending. Anything more and you are getting conned.

    LOST was fucking great. The ending is unimportant.

    I liked the ending. I bet Joe doesnt even know what happens. I talk to people who seen it and dont even realize what happened.

    I had some big grand theory when the show ended, I'm pretty sure I posted on this site on what I thought happened, but I don't think anybody agreed with me. I don't even remember what it was at this point. :lol:

    I didn't mind it, but I didn't think it was that important to begin with. Anybody who watches 6 full seasons of a show, simply for a final reveal is pretty silly.

    I still catch episodes every once in awhile On Demand or in Repeats. The show was a complicated serial, but nearly every episode stands on it's own very well, even when seen out of context from whatever season you are watching.

    Season 5 is tehe goodness. Dan Harmon back has turned the show around. Great viewing.

    Are you kidding me? The ending was straight out garbage and a rip off.

    Nah. From what I hear Chevy Chase never liked his character to begin with, and he and Harmon never really got along.

    Harmon still prank calls him on his podcast every once in awhile and leaves him voice messages, but Chevy never picks up.

    Goes back to when Chevy and Harmon had a falling out a couple years ago and and Chevy left Harmon a voice mail that Harmon ended up playing in public for laughs.

    Anybody catch Harmon's new animated show "Rick and Morty"?

    It's pretty smart and hilarious. It's like a demented version of "Back To The Future".

    Hes not missed. Troy has been gone for a few episodes now as well. Interesting to see how the dynamic of the show changes.

    Yeah I pretty much liked it from the start but damn, the last seasons were really on a great level. I never thought Timothy Olyphant could be such a cool character after seeing him in Die hard where I found him a bit faggity.

    Yeah I watched season two in like three days or something, pretty big shocker in the opener. I think it's a great show, although some think Underwood has it a little too easy and should have a bigger enemy.

    Anyone watched Carnivale on HBO? Only ran for 2 seasons. It was ahead of its time.

    Yup. Hated the way they ended it, but great series while it lasted.
