    Maybe, I should correct myself. Only five minutes of it. Not the whole episode. Cleared up for ya?

    No, not at all.

    Dammit, you're fast. Went back and edited it. The point is, I never understood the hype about the show. Couldn't get into it after five minutes.

    And my point is that you can't judge a series based on 5 minutes of the first episode lol

    Agreed.

    I think Dexter was pretty overrated. I made it to the beginning of the 4th season before I gave up.

    ^ That's because Breaking Bad isn't mind-blowing within the first five minutes. Sure, it can be slow at times, but there's a beauty in that; this speed shows the gradual development of the protagonist, a seemingly good-natured guy, down a path of darkness in a horrifyingly intriguing manner. Just saying. You should give it another go. :)


    I haven't seen the Walking Dead, but the idea of it doesn't really appeal to me. Just because it doesn't appeal to me do I think it's overrated, though.

    ^This. Breaking Bad is about the transformation of Mr. Rogers to Scarface.

    Not interested enough to try it, again. A lot of people would ask me over and over if I've seen it or what episode I was on, then acted like I wasn't normal for not watching it. To each their own. Not losing any sleep over a show I don't care to watch.

    never found big bang theory funny, and only moments in HIMYM are funny... not really overall

    i get why breaking bad is popular and i think it should be but it's way over hyped, and this is from someone who religiously watched every season and saw the finale the day it aired.

    havent seen the walking dead but i hear about it too much.

    supernatural... or maybe i'm just not far enough in? i've seen a few episodes and really didn't understand the appeal. the gifs on tumblr make it look so good, too.

    You have to give a them a chance.. I didn't like Game of Thrones till about the 4th episode. That show is ****ing amazing.

    Anyway. I thought LOST was so overrated.

    Agreed. Marginally less corny than HIMYM, but only marginally. I could bear it, if I didn't have anything better to do. Like de-fluff my naval.

    Parks and Recreation
    Game of Thrones(i know i really wanted to like this but..it's basically boobs. I DO like Daenerys)
