I See What You Offer,

I've always believed in giving shows due diligence. I don't feel like watching something just because everybody says it's good. I take my time, and if I don't like it, I avoid it. That's exactly how it was with Breaking Bad and Peaky Blinders. Good shows, no doubt, but the fact that people kept telling me it gets better by the third or fourth season, or that the ending makes it worth it, that alone tells me the show isn't fully justified on its own from the start.

I don't see people talk about Mindhunter enough. Psychologically, in terms of criminal aspects, it might be one of the best shows out there, and most of its audience genuinely wanted it to continue.

For me, Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad have no real comparison. Breaking Bad wins on richness, on how tightly everything is written. But Game of Thrones did something different, it built an entire universe that isn't of this earth, and the execution of that is still unmatched in that kind of fantasy space. Every character feels known, feels like a Game of Thrones character, the politics, all of it.

I would never straight up say a certain show is bad, because I don't think that's ever fully true. I see what a show has to offer, and sometimes it's just not for me, like thrillers or horror. But that doesn't mean I can't still see the failures in them.
