  Z Nation was so great.

    I just started a rewatch tonight after having mentioned it here :) I loved the show and I think it’s time to give it another go. I am surprised how much of the permanent cast is introduced in episode one.

  Yeah the fact that The Office UK is on here and not The IT Crowd just shows they included it due to proximity to The Office US and don’t watch British TV.

  South Park is not eligible as it started airing in 1997.

    ridiculous rule for shows that have run longer than everything else on the list, and still popular.

    Yeah that thought occurred to me - but since the list is as dumb as it is to begin with, I didn’t bother looking for rules of eligibility.

  What’s controversial about The Walking Dead? (I only saw the first season).

    It just quickly got old and repetitive,completely uninspired rehashing of the same problems and storylines. Season 1 is gold, 2 is decent, don’t bother past that

    You can stop there, The first season is gold. After that TWD doesn’t have a clue what to do with his premises and becomes stagnant

    The torture porn for Season 7 first episode. The show went from splatter / hack & slash to a breach of the psychological contract between film makers and the audience. Instead of cutting away for the ultra violence, they stayed fully on it, turning this franchise from a zombie splatter movie into sadistic torture porn, with the sadism directed at the unsuspecting viewers.

    I was able to skip past one of those sections because it was telegraphed in the previous season’s ending, but the next one was intentionally designed to catch the audience unaware and was ultra explicit. I did not want to see this and I never consented to this kind of sadistic fucked up shit to be broadcast onto my screen.

    Fuck the makers of that franchise, fuck AMC and fuck everyone involved in that decision for all eternity.

      I felt like it was an overcorrection of the season 6 finale where they left it on that shitty cliffhanger of who died. So they eeee like “well you want answers, we’ll give ya answers!!!”

      But yeah it was bad.

        Luckily it seems they were punished for it in terms of ratings. I honestly felt abused after being exposed to that scene, without a warning to close my eyes or skip ahead.

      Well now I kind of want to watch it.
