Seasons 1-3 of Coupling (British version). You could argue this is the most underrated comedy of all time since nobody knows about it, yet it was extreeemely good |
06-11-2012 02:42 PM

|
Relevant to note, on the IMDB page for Coupling, it shows six "people who liked this also liked these...", three of them are British shows, three of them are American shows. The American ones are Arrested Development, Sunny in Philly, and Community. So yeah, that's the best explanation I could give for why it's an awesome show |

I'm sold! I've had recs for coupling before so I guess it's time to bite the bullet. I'm watching workaholics right now. It's kinda stupid but has its funny moments. Doubt i'd enjoy it sober, but it's quality intoxicated watchings. | |

They may have. It's definitely good, but it's not GOAT like almost everybody on 2p2 likes to think. It's possible it doesn't even break top ten in dramas. I haven't seen everything, but off the top of my head, The Wire, Carnivale, Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Boardwalk Empire, Rome, Six Feet Under, and Firefly are all better. |

Some would say Deadwood is better than Sopranos, but they would be wrong. You could argue that Oz is better, but only if you're talking about the first three seasons. Mad Men and Twin Peaks are probably better, but I haven't seen either yet so I couldn't say |

Sopranos delivers, comparing is subjective but I thoroughly enjoyed the whole series and was in a similar position to kiwi having heard how amazing it was for years and only finally watched it this year. | |

I don't think I've watched any of these besides Breaking Bad. And while I think Breaking Bad is great, I still don't think it comes close to Sopranos. Trying to figure out why I think one is so much better than the other, Breaking Bad is definitely lacking a lot of things that I haven't pin pointed yet though. fwiw, I'm only part way through season 3. | |

Not watching The Wire is almost blasphemous as far as rating any TV show. It's the show that all others are rated under | |

Breaking Bad > Sopranos. | |

Naw the show was fantastic for three seasons, then they replaced a character coming into season 4, then cancelled shortly after. I've never even watched a whiff of season 4 because I knew all this before starting the series. |

I wasn't really even that into Breaking Bad that much when I was halfway through season 3 |

I've only rewatched Sopranos once, last year, and found it still held up really well to how I remembered it. The only episodes I really disliked were those "filler" type season 6 episodes. I actually like his therapy sessions, I remember you saying before how you hated them, which would make it tough to like the show as much as others. I agree it's probably so popular because of the development of Tony, but I do think it's actually a better job than any show I've seen thus far does. | |

QI, that's where I know him from. I've heard his name heaps but never checked out any of his stuff cos there was a kid in my class in primary and intermediate school called david mitchell | |

Omar isn't even the second coolest character there ever was, that spot belongs to Lucius Vorenus in Rome. Can't tell you who the awesome dude is in Carnivale because part of how awesome that show is is finding out who does what and why |

Yea, I think Omar was top 2-3 for me, but I haven't started Soprano's or Rome yet. With that said as soon as you go to comedies there are a few that could be easily above Omar as well. Hell half the Bluth family could be in the top 5 | |
06-13-2012 12:59 PM
#8293
| |
nah, the Bluth is funny as a unit, similar to how the characters of Seinfeld were funny as a unit. Krammer is a great character, but only in context. This goes for a lot of sitcoms, since there is typically very very little character development. | |
06-13-2012 01:05 PM
#8294
| |
Yea I agree, I think I was saying it more in jest. I don't think Seinfeld rates the same as other sitcoms though, I think the character development was great. It's pretty much the whole show in how the characters personalities are and how they reacted to the life situations. I think I get a better sense of George, and Kramer's characters than a ton of main characters on other shows | |

I killed 6 baby mice in my garage yesterday, although not with my bare hands (or teeth). I feel dirty and maybe want to cry a little bit. Just a little. | |

Last time I was involved in any kind of animal death was hitting a cat in a car but I was very drunk and it didn't bother me that much at the time. We hit it at about 50mph so it was a pretty quick end. I did feel pretty Shit the next day though, imagining some kid looking for kitty in the morning but kitty ain't coming home. | |

I wasn't driving BTW, but I prob could have told the driver to stop to check it was dead, but he was my boss and pissed and in a 30 zone so he wasn't too keen on stopping. | |

ya sometimes we get these annoying fruit fly infestations - last time i set up a trap with like fruit juice with a layer of dish soap to take away the surface tension, so they basically surprise fall right into the liquid and drown. dozens of them died. i did feel a bit bad even though they were just measly bugs. | |

I'm not sure I like the rule that after points obtained, result against each other is used to separate teams before goal difference. | |
| |
06-17-2012 10:51 AM
#8311
| |
Well I do. I think it's a bit wrong having a situation where Team A can beat Team B and finish on the same points but Team B qualifies because they scored more goals against Team C. I hope they keep the rule as it is. | |
| |
06-17-2012 04:07 PM
#8312

But the goals scored rule rewards and incentivises attacking football which has to be a good thing. | |

Yes, but where two team have the same points, I would want the better team to progress. Team C could be eliminated by the last game, have four players suspended and have three more injured, and get thrashed by a strong Team B, while the even stronger Team A, who beat Team B, grinds out a 1-0 win against Team D. But because Team C was so weak and had nothing to play for, Team A are eliminated, depsite proving to be stronger than Team B. | |
