Unpopular Media Opinions

[timtamWB]

Since we have one of these in the music and video game forums, I thought we should start one in here.

All of Lost's seasons were good, as was the finale.

Firefly isn't that good.

I'm lost.

Could never understand the hype around The Big Bang Theory. I tried watching one episode but changed the channel within about 5 minutes of watching it.

Don't think that's an unpopular media opinion around these parts. Fits if we're talking about the general public though.

My turn - HIMYM's finale was good and the seasons after 5, whilst not quite as good as the first four, were still good quality television.

Breaking Bad was really boring. I gave up after about 5-6 episodes.

Ahhh, see there's your mistake.

It took me 3 attempts to get through the first season, it just moved so slllooooow. Glad I persisted as it turned out to be a great show

 

[Extortion Threat]

NCIS & NCIS: Los Angeles are both good shows. They should've pulled the plug on It's Always Sunny after season 8. First two seasons of Breaking Bad are boring. The Seinfeld finale was great.

What is the bug hype around reality TV shows, especially the ones shown on Channel 7 (MKR and X-Factor). I also dislike Big Brother. However I will watch Masterchef and The Block.

There are two good things about TBBT.

Penny's left one, and her right one!

I never watched HIMYM regularly (saw an episode one night one time) and I predicted that the narrator bloke who is looking for a wife would end up with Robyn. I could see it coming from miles away.

Hated Avatar (James Cameron film).

I'll raise you one.

I've never seen Avatar But from what I've heard, it's not that good, it was just the 3D and special effects that were amazing.

Agreed, and the storyline was so typical of a romcom, that you knew what was going to happen.

Boy meets girl, they can't be together due to being from different species (families), so he goes against his families wishes and they end up together.

 

[Richard Cranium]

On Breaking Bad, Ozymandias wasn't even a top five ep and seasons 3 & 4 (and probably 2, but I don't remember it well enough) were better than season 5.

 

[emuboy]

I could not stand popular, highly rated movies 'American Hustle', '40-Year-Old Virgin' and '500 Days of Summer'.

At the other end of the scale, I loved the Tom Green movie 'Freddy Got Fingered'.

The plot was so predictable (probably because we've seen it a thousand times before). About 5 minutes into the movie you could already tell how it was going to end.

Spoiler

When he first got put into their world and was able to run it was obvious that he was going to become one of them, fall in love with one of their women and have to save them from the evil humans. It was kind of funny to watch all the predictions I made about the movie come true. It was that formulaic.

HUGE fan of NCIS here. Have only seen a couple of NCIS Los Angeles so can't comment on that yet . Just can not see the attraction of shows like Big Brother and the Block sort of show

 

[Red Black and Blue]

The first two seasons of Breaking Bad were the best. Only seasons with believable character development.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Tim Gilbert has to be one of the best personnel on Channel 9.

Doesn't push his agenda which is refreshing.

Its pretty much the Pocahontas story with Alien species. I enjoyed it though.

 

[Silent Alarm]

Firefly is so overrated! Yes. I just never understood the hype, but sci-fi never was for me

Front and back.

 

[phantom13]

Lord of the Rings flicks are long and dull.

 

[thurmanmunson]

Have never watched a 'reality show' and I never will, and I am very suspect of people that do.

Have no idea why people watch bogan empty vessel shows about cooking, cars, renovations, dancing, singing, etc

It's quite repellent

Exactly the same with this, but probably even more so with Modern Family.

Hot Mexican lady probably not quite enough to call it a good show imo. Everything else is terrible.
