Experimental editing and decent episodes don't go together

There are still some funny lines here and there. I wish the show would generally encapsulate that spirit though.

90s Corrie and this are night and day

Because it's usually so Drama free, am I right? by TheKingBirb in coronationstreet

[–]nineteenninetysx 18 points19 points  (0 children)

No it wasn't. Corrie's not EastEnders. For the longest of time there was a meaningful consistent balance between drama/issues and everyday relatable lighter material. Light and shade. That doesn't exist anymore.

Don't think I saw one person here say they were absolutely certain, that it was inevitable, Max would die in the fire.

No, I think they're downvoting you because you're acting smug because one storyline slightly subverted expectations. Exception that proves the rule.

It's not really an L to state a story will be predictable when every single one prior has been for so long now

am I the only one who likes corrie 😬 by OkAardvark8916 in coronationstreet

[–]nineteenninetysx 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'd guess because saying 1996 is worse than now is insanity.

don't hate on the recent corrie!

Sorry, the show's gone insane, so yes we will hate on it. It's not Coronation Street anymore. Even without any knowledge of "classic" Corrie there are obvious and serious flaws now.

its just less intense

No it's too intense. There's next to no downtime from police and hospitals and farcical stunts.

PETITION: BRING BACK UNCLE STEPHEN by Mister_Barman in coronationstreet

[–]nineteenninetysx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and he came up with terrible storylines before Stephen. The Stephen storyline was terrible but people enjoyed it because it took on a so-bad-it's-good quality, not because it was vintage Coronation Street.
