    Honestly I prefer watching a series a few years after it came out. Because if there’s one thing I hate today it’s that you may watch the first season when it come out only for the next to either be cancelled or be delayed, only coming out 2-3 years after the first one. At that point I have to watch the 1st season again just to remember the details of what happened. By waiting until multiple seasons come out or if the show ends I can watch it all in one go and have a coherent story (unless the writers just give up by season 3 LOL.

    I guess FOMO makes us watch everything right when it comes out. Or if it’s a really really good show and I enjoy the premise I’ll of course watch it as I go but man the wait can be excruciating sometimes.

    Cartoon wise, I strongly recommend the netflix adaptation of She-Ra And The Princesses Of Power.

    Babylon 5 and Farscape for live action, they’ve not bern mentioned yet either, I don’t think.

    grimm, seems like a supernatural Replication, but only focused on the human/monster part of it, with some magic. with the cheesey monster transformation like SPN, but with a German lore twists though.

    I came across The Newsroom with Jeff Daniels and Olivia Munn. HBO 2012-14. Munn is a much better actor than the shitty roles she has had since, but the show predicted the corporate takeover of US media and the subsequent enshittification of news. Scarily accurate, and in fact was too optimistic because the current shit show is much worse than they predicted would happen and they gave the IQ of the American public far too much credit.

    I much prefer a show that comes in, does it’s thing, and fucks off again. Respect my time.

    Stretching it out to a million seasons with a million episodes each just for archaic syndication purposes is a big no from me, dawg.
