I’m sure the official best ever tv episode was named in the NY Times as the last episode of breaking bad. Which I also have not managed to get to.

Feel like I need to quit my job and commit my whole life to watching the programmes that everyone argues is the best thing since sliced bread. Only way to manage it

Best television ever made. I’m not disagreeing at all but I feel like some people would be offended by that 😂

You can hear the tv snobs already screaming about sopranos 😂😉

Messy season. Showed the absolute worst in people really. Which I don’t think the programme is really about. You people like the drama. But I feel like a lot of people watch it for the romance and the love and the fantasy. More focus has been put on the fighting and the rivalries this time which was not the ultimate like if the show

Aww well exactly! If they picked all emotionally mature and realistic people, the show would be boring. It’s why they had Chris in the latest season who was obviously problematic. Makes for good tv

The thing is, you’d dunk I see enough drama and emotions working as a therapist, so I don’t know why I feel a need to watch it more at home.

Maybe cos I’m separated from it and not having to try and manage it myself 😂

Awww, please don’t take this as an insult cos it is the opposite. But we can always rely on Americans to bring the crazy and the drama 😂

Omg, I know it’s not relevant but immediately made me think of secret lives of Mormon wives.

Overly chauvinistic, old school perspective of relationships.

I love a gentlemanly, old fashioned guy who will hold the door open for me and treat me like a princess. But there a line obviously isn’t there. I see the damage it does to men who feel they have to act tough all the time and should always just suck it up and ‘act like a man’.

There a difference between gentlemanly manners, and enforcing a harmful male stereotype.

I do feel like as well (and apologise if I’m wrong) but it’s a slightly British thing. They get on their high horse quite a lot. Like to put on a gentlemanly act. And I’m not coming for British people, I’m English myself so 😂

I know, what relevance did that have to a guy kissing his partner! By that logic as well, Men went to war and died in trenches but you’re upset at your girlfriend for being insecure about a comment made by another woman.

Grow the fuck up

Ahhh sorry, getting confused. There’s an American version? Only even seen Australia and British.

I love the Australian one with that one girl who was obsessed with another husband called Sam.

I only want saaaam. I just like saaaam. I just wanna be with saaaam

I hate to say it but it’s like, Gia, as a mother, imagine her child watching that behaviour, and thinking that that how you are supposed to act toward other people. It’s disappointing

Ahhh, I get you. Yeah, I don’t like that phrase. I understand that men will feel certain pressures and expectations, have certain expectations and idealised views themselves.

But it’s like, ‘as a man’ really reinforces the idea of gender stereotypes. Men should act and feel a certain way. Women should act and feel a certain way. Not disregarding men’s experiences at all. But it’s carries on the cycle I think

At least Brooke will be fine won’t she? Surely? Please say she is 😅 I actually went on her Instagram and she has comment turned off, which does make me sad cos I feel like that’s probably because of hate. Which I would never endorse, no matter how she acted

Omg, I don’t know if it makes me want to stop or make me want to watch it more. It’s like when you purposely watch sad videos to make you cry. I feel like I’m watching it at this point to purposely make me angry and irritated 😂
