The walking deads first season is great! Not the rest though

TV series: You have to skip the first season, it’s a slow start and kinda shit. Go back to it later, except for S01E07 and 08, those are necessary to understand the story arc.
I’m S02, watch E03,04,05,08,11 and 02 in that order. Still drags on but there are some memorable moments. S03 is great. Except for the ending, skip that. And it all goes downhill starting in S04.
But if you stick with it, S07 is bearable again.
Best series of all time!

I bought and read the first comic, watched the first series, and called it good.
Speculater@lemmy.world 1 year ago
You did well. The first season and every following season are the exact same. Chaos, find safety, traitor/calamity, run, chaos… Repeat

Honestly, if I’m told that I need to watch something in a weird order in order to enjoy it, I just drop it from my watchlist. There’s plenty of good media to watch, I’m not gonna do that stupid shit.

You’re not gonna like Fate then. It is a good series just complicated time-line and a complete mess.
Kedly@lemm.ee 1 year ago
I mean, you can just watch said series in release order as well if optimal order is too much work

Does anyone really watch a tv show like that?
rtxn@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis.
dev_null@lemmy.ml 1 year ago
Yeah. Both can be watched separately, but if you want to watch both, it’s nice to do it in chronological order where episodes of the two series are mixed together, as you get some references to the events in the other series.

My friend insists Battlestar Galactica has a crazy order. His partner wants to watch it and he got irrationally angry (at the show, not at her).
I guess she watches it without him now. He refuses to even discuss it. I like to poke at him about it occasionally.
ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.ml 1 year ago
What do they think the order of Battlestar is? I just watched through it again and it’s fine as is I don’t know how changing the order could help
ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.ml 1 year ago
Not this extreme, but Always Sunny I couldn’t get past the second episode. Gave up on it until someone told me that I can just completely ignore the first season and start on season two. Actually got into the show like that, never gone back to try and watch the parts I missed

You’re talking about Clone Wars, right?
wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 year ago
No, clone wars has a convoluted watching order weaving between various episodes in the early seasons, then eventually settles down into chronological order in the last couple of seasons.

I thought you were talking about Jojo for the first half and was ready to defend part 2.

I was thinking of what I was told about TNG and Babylon5 but the episode numbers I wrote are just random.
Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I applied these rules to True Detective and I am now sad and confused.
rotkehle@feddit.org 1 year ago
no shit. that’s exactly how everyone talks about the series I need to watch.^^
superkret@feddit.org 1 year ago
TNG or Babylon 5?
MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 1 year ago
Pretty sure i forget seasons 01 - 04 until i’m in 07.
Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 year ago
The only serious I’ve seen this sorta shit for is BSG and then it was most recommended to just disregard that bs and watch it in release order
Theharpyeagle@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yeah, I can get into a series if people say to skip the first couple episodes/seasons because it takes a little to figure itself out (like how you can skip the first season of Parks and Rec and miss nothing of importance), but weird watch order is not something I’ll bother with.
FenrirIII@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I had to get a watch guide for Supernatural. It had some great episodes and a lot of duds. I still never finished it, stopping on season 7.

When does game of thrones get good? Season 8?

I personally recommend watching all of GoT in order, not because it’s good, but because you won’t appreciate the flawless genius of S8E3 without the other 7 seasons of context.
