OK, maybe I don't need to watch it.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago (2 children)

don't listen to them, it's excellent.

It's pretty obvious to me that graymess was turned off by the gore part of the previous commenter's statement and not the sitcom part so I'm not sure it matters to them how "excellent" it may or may not be...

But, what do I know?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

not obvious at all considering that was only part of the criticism and they did not specifically mention that's why they won't watch.

I said it was pretty obvious to me... Clearly you didn't have the same understanding.

And you are wrong for thinking it was so obvious for the reasons i stated above. you jumped to your conclusion.

My dude the gore in the show is toned down from the comic. It's not trying to be edgy, it's trying to make garth goddamn ennis palatable to more people.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Which has nothing to do with my guess that it's what turned the previous commenter off.

Thanks though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah I meant to reply to them. Whoops.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Lol... No worries... That makes a lot more sense.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Even if you disagree it doesn't make only your opinion the correct one. It's opinions after all.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

where did i say my opinion was the only correct one?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

What does don't listen to them mean.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

it means "don't miss out on a critically acclaimed, highly rated show just because this one person didn't like it."

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I didn't know I was the only one that didn't like it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

jfc, obviously i did not mean you were the only person on planet earth who didn’t like the show.

You have now straw manned three consecutive comments, and are clearly not interested in meaningful discussion. good night.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Out of curiosity, was it the reference to the show "becoming a sitcom" or the one saying that they'd used "gore to make it seem mature and edgy" that turned you off? (or both)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Neither are what I'm looking for in TV these days.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Fair ... Me either really...
