I'm more of a movie guy but there are a couple of shows that I like such as M*A*S*H, Miami Vice, Knight Rider, Walker, Texas Ranger, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Two and a Half Men, Kirby Buckets and Cobra Kai. I've also seen limited series like The People Vs OJ Simpson: An American Crime Story and The Spy. Next show I'm going to watch is The Sopranos. You dismiss Breaking Bad but you're a fan of shallow '80s cop shows and painfully unfunny Chuck Lorre shows. Ah. Entertainment is subjective. You like what you like. I'm not going to argue over what I find entertaining. |

Yes, of course everyone has the right to like what they like, but we are entitled with weight and justification on our side to dismiss the proclamations of those who are ill-informed on subjects.

Likewise if you HAVE seen Two and Half Men how can you say it's not crap? |

People are allowed to dislike critically acclaimed shows no?.

Well, I've completed Two and a Half Men 2 or 3 times and it's one of the funniest shows ever made, IMO. When did entertainment become objective? It's not. |

Nobody says it's objective, everybody knows that. But 'ignorance is bliss' is no argument. If you haven't seen any substantive amount of the show then you can't have any opinion on it. It just doesn't make any sense. But Two and Half Men is a vacuum of comedy and quality. |

Saying "overrated and overhyped crap" about a show you've never seen.
This is like saying a five-star restaurant sucks and has shitty food, despite having never eaten there. Absurd, yes?

Breaking Bad is highly rated because it appeals to a range of viewers. Joe Bloggs who may have a limited knowledge of filmmaking and art can be drawn into it for its thrilling story, interesting characters and superb action. Film enthusiasts will be enthralled by its stylish genre influences from Westerns and Crime thrillers; its multi dimensional characters, and provocative subject matter/themes on masculinity, isolation, death, destruction, addiction, power and corruption, and family unit relationships/bonding etc. You've acknowledged that you haven't seen it and have made damning judgement on it despite your ignorance. Your criticisms are just shallow and inconsiderate.
