I'm on episode 9, and I'm absolutely loving it. Not sure why some critics are giving it shit… In part I think they were already ready to hate it (I saw a lot of tweets about "how they are not getting their hope up" before the premiere). Also the Netflix model challenged their concept of television, and they're angry…

yeah hearing a small reference that some actually find funny for 15 seconds in a 45 minute episode is soooo tedious

Heh, I like The Walking Dead. I think people most of the time nitpick it to death and just like making fun of it for no reason at all. I think it does what it is supposed to do in every episode, and succeeds at it.

There's certainly potential. It could turn really good, and if Todd says that the last 15 minutes of the 3rd episode are actually good (and I already liked the pilot) than I think I'm gonna like this show.
Enlightened got a B- for it's first three episodes (people would complain about how Amy was unlikable and the show…

…

Heh, Spartacus good aspects are exclusively based on chock and twisty endings. There are always plot holes and the dialogue is pretty much terrible from the first episode (there are lots of lines per episode that are really cringe worthy). I won't even complain about the CGI because that is something I think everyone…

The problem with critics it's that they think that just because their job is to "have an opinion", something subjective, it means they're immune to any sort of criticism. Their only argument against their detractors is  "Oh you don't like my reviews because you have a different opinion than mine, so you're an…

Ryan McGee did that?  Hahahaha. What a joke. That is just one more thing in the pile of reasons why McGee is probably the worst TV reviewer around. His House of Cards reviews are just another joke, just as his Hitfix Fringe reviews were. No wonder he has a strange admiration for Spartacus - he probably thinks it is…

This. "One minute" beats everything, even the train heist

I went into this season thinking it was going to end up being boring as the second part of season 4 and season 3. I hated the first episodes this season. I loved the last couple of episodes. They are doing what this show promised to do: entertain. Don't over-analyze it and just have fun.

Speaking of Saw. I am the only one who thinks the final twist is: Ellen wants the person on the roof to think she commited suicide, but she isn't really dead - that is fake blood. This would explain the tear and the fact that she doesn't really look dead. 
And I think maybe Patty knows this and is helping Ellen in the…

I'm pretty sure the showrunners confirmed that the baby never existed in this timeline. Or at least that Peter is not the father.

The rooms contained their fears, not their faiths. The purpose of the hotel was to make them afraid in a way it would make them reach their faiths, so the Minotaur would feed on them (the faiths/beliefs).

Expect nothing from MTV and you will still be disappointed.

EmilyYoshida, you're probably right about Carrie's reviews being for people who are deep into the show and not for casual viewers. But my comment was more about how some people consider this to be almost a "perfect genre show", even comparing it to the best broadcast shows like "The Good Wife". I strongly disagree…

Carrie, maybe I shouldn't have compared "TVD" with "True Blood" (and btw, I wan't comparing it to Breaking Bad). I think that  "True Blood" had more conditions (It's on premium cable, it has only 12 episodes per season) and more reasons to be really good, but it isn't, even though it has (or had) it's good moments .…

dah_sab. It wasn't me that mentioned that "The Vampire Diaries" is almost "up there with cable shows". That was the only reason why I mentioned them. I think it's stupid to compare a 24-episode-per-season show on broadcast television to a show that has 12 episodes per season cable show. It's impossible to compare. And…

This series is as bad as True Blood s03/s04. I'm not even sure how the same reviewer for the both shows, gives "True Blood" Cs all the time and only gives this show A, A- and B+.
