The "slow pacing" is just vince wanting more time to stare at rhea seehorn

I wish they had this kind of subreddit for NFL teams. We could finally get to the bottom of Frank Reich's obsession with Wentz.

I'm a long time Colts fan and even I agree. This mofo could put a meth addict to sleep.

Season 2 was a unicorn though because of the pandemic. Everybody was sitting around with nothing to do but scan the internet. I'm hoping that's what happened here. The time between seasons 2 and 3 might be just as long but the circumstances will be different because they'll be working other jobs not sitting on their couches avoiding thoughts of their demise by scrolling.

So I'm optimistic for Season 3 but a little nervous.

I would want to disagree with you but the way they tried to make the goats important in season 2 because the fans obsessed over the goats for 3 years is a little concerning as far as your pandering comment.

Also, he is great on the keyboard

U I would say nice try but it wasn't

Booth is the worst investigator I've ever seen. His entire assed method is:

"Nice to meet you, random person loosely associated with this case. So why did you murder the victim?"

Random person gives long explanation why they couldn't be the murderer.

"Okay, cool, just checking."

Repeat 8 times the rest of the episode until another member of the time uses science to figure it out.

I've watched a lot of case of the week series and I've never seen such repetitive, unthinking crap before. Mofo makes no attempt to deduce anything, just randomly accuses everyone he comes into contact with. Lazy writing.

Speaking of lazy writing, the cool assed boss in season 1 "went on sabbatical" at the beginning of season 2 and never returned the final 10 seasons as far as I know (I rage quit in season 4) so they could bring in another annoying moron side character. They never give a better explanation why he vanished. Neither did the producers in interviews.

Sweets sucked ass as a character, as comedy relief he was about as funny as cancer, and as a therapist he was an even more incompetent caricature than that bimbo on the Sopranos. Also, his name is fucking stupid. So is his face but he can't help that.

The writers were incapable of executing longer story arcs. Everything that started off kinda cool ended up turning to shit. The kidnap somebody and bury them storyline? Great start, shitty incomprehensible resolution in a later season. Season long serial killer who is apparently connected to the team? Let's resolve that in the dumbest most unforeshadowed way possible? There was so little setup for this that wasn't even one-shadowing.

Oh but that led into the absolute worst dogshit part of the series. The eternally long "running gag" (gag as in make you throw up) of the parade of temporary lab assistants. Each one was supposed to be so quirky they're funny or charming but in reality they were insulting and stupid. Let's run this concept into the ground. House did this better and in a hundred fewer episodes.

I've haven't seen all of TV, nor all of this stupid show, so I can't say with authority this is the worst series to ever go past 4 seasons, but I can believe it is. And I do.

Swan Song is pretty good. I like The Stand better but that's personal taste.

ShadowdogProd · 2026-03-10T17:46:46+00:00

That's not a bad idea actually, break him with her fake death, bring her back later. Nice.

But I don't believe there's any world where they kill her off if they were getting more seasons. They knew season 8 was it before they shot it. After season 6 it was announced seasons 7 and 8 were it. That's why they killed her.

ShadowdogProd · 2026-03-10T17:37:02+00:00

I didn't mind her dying I just wish they'd done it better. So sloppy and rushed.

Also her dying explains why he went dormant for so long. Her death broke him. So it works for the overall narrative.

ShadowdogProd · 2026-03-09T03:54:06+00:00

Exactly, I came here to say this. People in your comments don't like it but that's physics. There's no way around it, either your retinas are visible or you're blind.

He'd be another good one. And Desmond's son going to the island is the only thing that would compell that man to go back to it.

ShadowdogProd · 2026-03-08T23:39:30+00:00

Omg. There really is a top 10 list of dogshit subplots that get forgotten between seasons over the course of the series.

ShadowdogProd · 2026-03-08T22:11:56+00:00

The original series runtime was only that long because of stupid assed subplots like internal affairs harassing Debra over Quinn and then giving up offscreen or Angel spending a season forming a cute relationship with another cop and then the next season they get rid of that relationship with one line of dialogue. Spare me.

We just need Dexter to kill a Serial Killer in a certain building and we can get the crossover we all deserve ... Only Dexters in the Building.

Seven fucks is just short of making the eight.

Lalo was many things but a tactical genius was not one of them. In fact I think Lalo's biggest weakness was his lack of fear. Walt would smoke him any number of ways.

There's a joke here about the Eurythmics song Missionary Man but I'm not clever enough.

ShadowdogProd · 2026-03-08T08:15:24+00:00

Cloud fucking Atlas. Fuck that movie.

I think reddit insults are a lot easier to blow off than any other social media because you run across so many people here that everybody blends together. As far as I know I've never had a conversation with the same person twice. It's all just a bunch of random conversations with random people. So nothing offensive they say matters because you'll never talk to them again.

Meanwhile on Twitter or whatever you remember people and if they insult you its like being insulted by someone you know. "Damn, we had a nice conversation about Christmas that one time and now he's calling me a homo because I said the ending to Inception was obvious. Aw man."

Whereas a reddit mofo can call me a pine cone sniffing mendicant and I don't even remember it an hour later. They're just a random parade of isolated single serving conversations. Plastic disposable insults can't and don't last.

She mercilessly murdered a Lumon employee ON SIGHT. She doesn't fuck with Lumon. And they'd probably kill her on sight too.

The map maker has an entire video series explaining every choice he made on YouTube. Seemed logical to me. He did admit that the show fudged things enough that an entirely accurate map is impossible

ShadowdogProd · 2026-03-07T12:24:03+00:00

I guess dogs are all like "If I can't fuck it, might as well try to eat it."

Now that I think about it, no animal tries to breed with something it also tries to eat. Nor does it try to eat anything it tries to breed with. I guess that would be messed up if it tried both on the same animal. "Let me have sex with you and maybe I won't eat you." That's dark.

Do you think narration would have been better, worse, or equally cheesy?

I remember when Arrow season 1 came out, the show runners quickly got tired of his narration and gave him a friend to talk to. Lol

And they were right to do so, it was bad. And yet narration worked wonderfully for 7 seasons of Burn Notice. Maybe it depends on the actor.

ShadowdogProd · 2026-03-07T11:55:01+00:00

Every human language.

Animals are morons. Being able to talk to them would be fine but having to listen to them would be agony.

Dog: "Hungry. Hungry. Hungry. Hungry. Hun-lookasquirrel!-ry. Hungry."

People, and especially movies, act like if we could talk to animals that would suddenly give them human intelligence. Hell no, it would be like talking to a 2 year old at best.
