that poo poo was hackneyed as gently caress despite having never been done on the show previously. I can think of plenty of instances in shows where the camera pans or zooms out to reveal a crucial aspect that alters the significance of the scene immediately prior but literally hiding that aspect behind a column was trash directing

Well, that's just like, your opinion man.

Justified is a bad show that lots of people think is good (they are wrong)

I only watched the first episode but was thinking of watching more. The deadwood guy seems like kind of an ornery idiot with a good heart, just like in deadwood, but I love walton goggins and was hoping he was enough to carry it. What's your complaint?

Deadwood was good in spite of being a western which is something that iustified isn't good enough to do. I don't like the main character but walter goggins is good in it so if you're mainly watching for him you may like it

30 rock, review, broad city, peep show, the day today, brass eye, veep, the thick of it, dark place, all have real people

also parks and rec and the office are fine (well the first couple seasons of the office)

history's greatest crime is darkplace only having six episodes.

animated comedies have about the same batting ratio as live action comedies, i mean for every bob's burgers and clone high you get an allen gregory or bordertown

clone high ending on a cliffhanger with no second season is nearly as bad a crime.

It's mostly a good show because opening shots are done pretty artistically.

It's kind of like one of those indie games where everyone puts in their all to make it awesome and it's awesome but it's still only $20.

And the actors are mostly comedic actors and they use their comedic skill but the show guarantees life first and comedy second.

It's like...the Louis C.K. of drama.

I saw the pilot for Shameless and it's what I imagine rich people who have never seen a poor person think poor people are like

Favorite part was a piece of printer paper with "food stamps accepted!" conspicuously placed in front of a convenience store register in center frame

The first couple of seasons of shameless were p funny but it stopped being good, those we accept ebt/food stamps signs are def a thing. That being said it's way over the top
