So, what would you call a good TV show? Did you see the 2nd Lord of the Rings movie? |
I grade shows on curves based on expectations. Game of Thrones is based on my all time favorite book series. I do grade it much harder than any other television show ever made. I won't deny that. I adore this world and know its lore more than any rational person should.
So, when I say I enjoy Breaking Bad, Boardwalk Empire, Dexter (1-4), Mad Men, House of Cards, Hannibal, Daredevil, etc. I am asier on them because I am not expecting it to reflect something I have a deep emotional attachment. I completely get people who enjoy the ride and spectacle. I'm just some nerd who gets caught up on details because I have a fixed perception of characters, places, or events.
By all means enjoy it, I'll try not to be a complete downer here.
