>So what are some recent emotional song moments like the 2000-20teens shows?

Ted Lasso funeral song

plot holes and lazy writing are acceptable if they are done in the pursuit of comedy

not acceptable for drama

The Witcher was a mess, but Cavill is legendary and it had some good elements.

If they could have condensed it into a cohesive narrative, it could have been easier to get attached to. And it would have been nice to focus more of the budget on fewer monsters so they looked better.

Tom Cruise is going to be starring in Mission Impossible movies for 200 years after his death. His estate is going to single-handedly keep Scientology afloat.

Teen Wolf?

the tv series Once Upon a Time featured the Big Bad Wolf with a new twist

I don't like horror movies, but Sixth Sense is unquestionably a great movie

>I think the thing that aged the worst is Sam's lack of change over the course of the film.

It's a small-scoped movie that doesn't have enough spare time to tell more than one character's story. It has something to say about a character. I don't think it should be criticized for not having more to say about more characters.

Could it have been a better movie if it expanded the budget and extended the running time beyond 102 minutes to include more character development? Possibly. But Braff probably didn't have an extra million dollars laying around to make it happen. And I don't think he should be criticized for that.

Dredd 2012 remade Judge Dredd (which was considered to be a box office flop)

Jaime and Cersei Lannister

criticize all you want, but this relationship had the most going on. Stakes, obstacles, phases, passion.

Claire Forlani in Mystery Men

there's no reason for her to be in the movie other than to tick a box to say that the movie had a romantic subplot

>Amazon Prime, and Amazon owns MGM.

Amazon Prime is not the same thing as Amazon. Prime is just one of the services that Amazon sells. MGM+ is another.

Your question is like asking if you buy a Nissan Maxima why do you also not get a Nissan Murano. Just because you buy one product with the word Nissan in the name doesn't mean you get every product that company makes.

>Is POI good good or like, good for a procedural good?

It's half of the best of both worlds.

If you're a boomer who likes your comfortable procedurals, the latter parts of the show might seem to "drift into the weeds" going deeper down the rabbit hole into complex hard sci-fi concepts about AI.

If you're a Severance fan who wants that deep, hard sci-fi packaged concisely, then you might feel bogged down having to sit through 103 episodes of procedurals to "get to the point".

It tries to be both and succeeds more than it fails. Some of the seemingly-one-off characters end up popping back up and joining the serialized story.

The show aired from 2011-2016, just when our appetites were changing.

All in all, I'd say that the show is a bit like eating ribs. It's too much effort for too little meat, but there's no denying that the meat you get is damn good. But if you're a nut for AI plotlines and feel the need to consume them all, then I'd say PoI is worth the effort.

each period of Avatar The Last Airbender has things that make it feel different. New cities, new powers, new party members including some side-switchers.

>If you don't like a show for creative reasons then sure

and those are the only complaints I've heard so far

True Detective S1

The Rehearsal

The Wire

Peacemaker

Barry

that's the price of fame

Why is the meme that "Bush did 9/11" instead of "Karl Rove did 9/11"?

I'm sure she's experienced plenty of benefits from being famous, gotta take the hit when something doesn't go well too

I liked watching each new episode of Better Call Saul as it aired. That way I could keep up with the discussion on social media when other were watching it and avoid spoilers. I heard a bunch of complaints about AMC+ so I'm glad I didn't have to deal with that.

Same situation with live sports. I'm not sure what packages exist to watch game in real time, but watching live in satellite works fine for me.

>How any one watches commercial TV anymore is beyond me.

one way is DVR (fast forward through commercials)

another way is when I have something to do on commercials (food, bathroom)

But just muting the TV during commercials isn't too bad. Even when streaming movies I have to keep the remote in my hand to micromanage the volume anyway. It's actually easier to manage the volume when watching satellite by comparison if I'm just muting commercials.

I happen to agree with your sentiment which is, ironically, the reason why supporting Andor is so important to me.

A consumer's responsibility is to vote with his wallet. If we provide feedback to Disney that we don't want more of the crap that came before (prequels, boba fett, obiwan) but instead want more stuff like Andor, then we have a chance to turn the tide.

I agree with you. If the show had found a way to introduce Dedra and Mon Mothma in the pilot, it would catch people more easily. It's odd for a show to wait until the 4th episode to introduce the two best main characters.

In fact, I'll go one step further and say that Mon Mothma should have been a co-lead of the series with her name and face equal to Cassian in the marketing. That would have better communicated to people what kind of show it is.
