Best television of 2015

[epilogue]

Fargo is the answer here team.

I'm so behind on this. But the first 3 episodes alone make me want to agree with you.

[epilogue]

Fargo, Mr. Robot (still need to finish both), Mad Mean, Game of Thrones, the most recent season of Sunny... all things I'd put in the conversation.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Was Sunny good again? The last season on Netflix is pretty dismal. I have a real bi-polar relationship with that show.

I liked the last season that's on Netflix more than most. So maybe don't trust me here. But I thought S10 was the strongest the show has been in four or five years. The opening episode is an instant classic and easily one of the best episodes of the entire series, I think.

There's also a really great episode that's all one tracking shot, no commercials when it aired. They seem like they're having a ton of fun and trying to find ways to keep the show fresh and interesting. But again, I'm not as down on S8 & S9 as most folks are.

Fargo is just so impressive. Top notch story telling.

Really pleased it got renewed for a 3rd season.

Fargo is on another level at the moment. Best show on TV.

[The Argonaut]

Man Seeking Woman deserves a mention. This one was actually the best new show of the year.

JJ hadn't been involved since the pilot, which makes the fact that....

Sorry

I've never seen anything that indicates that JJ had an idea for the end of the show, let a lone that Damon & Carlton used his idea. I have seen a lot of talk that points toward that being inaccurate, however. In fact, it's pretty widely regarded that a lot of what ended up in Fringe was originally in JJ's Bible for LOST (not the ending, however).

If you have any links or articles or interviews you can point me toward in support of what you're saying, I'd love to see/read them. I'm more of a LOST nerd than anything else (Star Wars, Trek, comics, etc). So, I'd like my knowledge of the show to be accurate.

I don't know where I got the idea from. I'll have to look into it later.

you mean, you'll have to try and remember?

I mean I'll do some googling and try to find out who came up with the stupid idea in the first place. New research project!

Biggest disappointments of 2015:

1. True Desucktive (UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
2. The Muppets (I'm happy it's back, but it's not nearly as good as it was.)
3. Orange is the New Black (Season 3 was a chore and Piper remains the most annoying character on TV.)

[Norah]

The Muppets has sucked.

[epilogue]

Season One of Orange was a chore. I'm not sure how people stuck around for three of those fuckers.

[E.H. Ruddock]

3 is the worst. We made it like 4 episodes in and gave up.

Congratulations. And I mean that.

[VinylGuy]

True Detective was a huge disappointment...i didnt hate it like everyone else, but if you compare it with season one or Galveston, the material was really really messy.
