All for it. I rarely find a show beyond sitcom type comedies that isn't dissapointing by season 4. 3 seasons of a good show keeps me simultaneously wanting more but also secretly glad that that's how I'm left feeling. Feel the same way with a really good course at a restaurant.

His glasses look like those novelty ones with the eyes printed on them.

I always say a show should only run 5 seasons at most, and if it's very popular to just do the occasional mini series.

SG1 only ran 5 seasons, season 3 through season 7. Nothing else was real. Just a bad dream.

I wish severence would have ended at season 2, exactly the way it did. I'm bracing for dissapointment.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I love the first two seasons of Severance, but even if the third will be bad, it won't affect my feelings towards the first two.

Unless it's GoT season 8 levels of bad, but that's probably not possible.

You say that, but sometimes a continuation is so bad that it like goes back in time and somehow taints your memories.

Honestly, it outstayed it's welcome in the final episode of the first season for me.

I don't know sense the fuck the producers have against the story, but fucking or off that far was a waste. They could have just made up their own show and not wasted the money getting the title from Ennis, if they were going to fuck with the core motivation of a central character like that.

Edit:

I have no fucking clue why everyone is all het up and nasty about this I'm not saying people can't enjoy the show, I'm just expressing my opinion, and for some reason people are acting very unpleasant for lemmy.

It's disappointing considering I was very recently arguing that lemmy is unusually respectful of differing opinions. I'm not sure if it's this community that's being hit with unusual incivility, if it's the influx of reddit users not getting that we can be decent to each other while disagreeing, or what.

But, people, remember the human.

lemmy is unusually respectful of differing opinions

Are we talking about the same lemmy?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah. On average, I usually run into a lot less snark and douchebaggery over differing opinions. When it does pop up it's usually over hot button issues where you expect heated responses.

Tbh, even the initial few bad responses here weren't as bad as what I'd see on reddit, but it was just really shocking, especially over a tv show.

I'm used to having disagreements be respectful and thoughtful most of the time, and not just be dismissive. Not that it's always like that, I'm guilty of going too far on some things myself. I just have way more disagreements end with a friendly note.

The comics sucked, the show is a big improvement

It's ok to not like a tv show. You don't have to explain yourself to anybody.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Its ok not to agree with a comment, you dont have to share your opinion.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 week ago

Let me get this straight. You're upset because it's ok to not lile a tv show?

Interesting response.
