There were some parts that were better than BB imo. Every episode was full of suspense, there was no filler and the cliffhangers, wow.
The ending.
mah N
watch the movie G

Nah, if the show's unique and good in its own way, then I won't need to compare it to past shows I liked.

Re: The TV Series Thread - Part 3
I wanted him to be free at the end, but because of what he is, wasn't so sure. So then I started thinking of ways for him to be free without being a threat to the public. But that wouldn't be possible unless he turned face.

Re: The TV Series Thread - Part 3
He nearly did turn face. When he faked his way through that job. He was enjoying life as a proper man. I don't remember if they ever did his childhood but he did try to turn face few times. Like when he was living with that woman and her kids. The only reason he had to leave was because they found out who he was. Obviously he was a pedo and a killer and should be locked up and I am not standing up for him. But I think he had a difficult childhood. Maybe was abused himself. Maybe he wanted to be a normal person like we saw in the last season when he felt happy with working at the office and only had to give it all up because of his past.
He was a brilliant character. One thing Prison Break got so right was the variation in characters and how they all were so good to watch. Even that kid who got shot by mahone lol. Felt sorry for the drug lord though.

Re: The TV Series Thread - Part 3
I liked the entire show, season 1 was the best though. It's a lot like TWD. Even though the story might drag out at times, the suspense and characters made up for it imo.

Re: The TV Series Thread - Part 3
I don't think T-bag would've remained a face even if he turned. If something went wrong, he'd most likely return to his old ways. The happy family stuff seemed a bit phony as well imo.
At first I didn't even realise Sara was Lori from TWD. Also the prison officer T-bag stabs in season 1 is Sheamus from TWD.

Prison Break must have a record for the amount of face/heel turns, swerves and plot twists. Never know who to trust.

Season 1 was so goat. I couldn't even go through the first 3 or 4 episodes of season 2. The drop in quality was so huge it was laughable.

MT if you want unique.
Look no further than Lost - the story is one of its own. And if you want a unique GOAT character driven show than look no further than Dexter.

Re: The TV Series Thread - Part 3
Does anybody know of a show approximately 26-26.87 minutes in length, that features a bald female lead/co-lead preferably with a Goatee. Needs to be set in 'Murica too and can't be set in the past or the future either. Must be based in whatever year it started from and it's essential there's no horses or other wildlife shittery involved.
Thanks in advance.
Yours faithfully, Pos.

Krysten Ritter Nabs Lead In Marvel’s ‘Jessica Jones’

Re: The TV Series Thread - Part 3
Finally finished Dexter.
- Spoiler:
- So let's start with the bad/the let down for many people. For some people it is everything after season 4, and for some it is just season 8 and for some it is just the show's finale.
Well, well, well where do I fit in?
Not anywhere, or at least not exactly where everyone seems to.
I think season 8 was the least best, but it still had its moments. After season 8 a eenzy weenzy bit of quality dropped I admit, but not that much, it still had its wit (what I love secondly most about this show, after the character Dexter) it still had very good Dexter monologues(narrations/voiceovers) and the Dexter - Debra dialogues were still great as always right up until the end. Dexter was becoming more and more complex and started questioning himself more and more in the later parts of the show, but one thing remained constant - he is a serial killer and he is forever drawn to the darkside and that could have never changed and that's I think what the writers did with the ending (finale).
I read reviews and checked ratings for the finale over the internet. And I just don't get people. How can they say that the finale was just absolutely bad. I think people just wanted/expected something epic to happen to save the season, but after the path which the whole of the season walked that was the best way (or at least one of the best) imo that the show could have ended. Season 8 had no real direction, I doubt whether the writers knew how they wanted the show to go that season and how they wanted it to end, maybe only right up until the penultimate episode they had an idea. The season was loose really. Some old lady shows up out of nowhere for the first time and claim she's Dexter's "spirtitual mother" - she helped create Dexter. That right there already blew the realism of the season way out of line, and that was just a bad idea, they could've introduced some other serial killer like Brian (season 1) or Trinity (season 4), but instead it followed a shaky storyline that dragged at some points, and some unnecessary filler in between.
But the way it ended was justifiable. I mean, Dexter recked everything in his life even if he was such A BLOODY BADASS COOL CHARACTER, and that was the only way the show was going to end - everything falling apart - that's realistic. So f the people that say it wasn't realistic, yeah sure the storm and all that in the finale was a bit over-the-top but the finale had a lot of symbolic meaning to it at the end. The emotion was real in the finale and I felt it. I felt sad, and kind of empty when it ended - and that was how we were supposed to feel after the last episode. FFS this is a serial killer, what did you want, a happy ending?
After the first few seasons I also had my idea of how I wanted this show to end, and I knew it would have to end in shambles for Dexter - what i wanted was maybe for Debra to stop him (find him out and plot a plan to arrest him which would probably lead to the electric chair The Green Mile-style. A ending like that would've been great. Or maybe for Debra to kill Dexter herself in one final emotional ending.) What I also felt could've worked is if LaGuerta or Batista found him out and they worked a good plot around that.
But the actual ending was very good imo. People just wanted something impossible for a poorly-structured last season.
So what do you guys think about the way Dexter ended? How would y'all have wanted it to end?
I know I'm a bit late, but would like to see what you guys felt back then when you watched the finale.

That's one show I won't be watching. Can't stand her tbh. Worst thing about BB.
Still not a fan of Marvel involving tv and movies, and hope they don't mix.

Re: The TV Series Thread - Part 3
Gonna change my criteria.
Can anyone suggest shows that are:
Similar to Prison Break and Breaking Bad.
Has endless cliffhangers.
Is suspenseful, has one main story and a binge watch effect/keeps you up all night saying '1 more episode'.
Ideally fast paced.
Currently watching 24, Homeland, Dexter, GoT, Lost, Shield, SoA etc etc.

Should be an or, since they're nothing alike.
Fast pace and Prison Break in same post.. wat.
Endless cliffhangers. What about watching a cancelled show? those have cliffhangers that will never end
