Goons hate everything that other goons like, and they love being vocal about how much they hate it. They'll watch a show for 5 seasons just so they can go into a TVIV thread and go "Hey guys I've been watching this show since the beginning and it always sucked and I hate it and I hate all of you for liking it. I'm just trying to understand what all the hype is about."

And they will post this same thing verbatim in every new thread for the show.

Never understood people like this or the ones who go "the first three seasons are terrible but season 4 is so awesome!!"

Why would I invest my time in a linear narrative that's bad for hours on end to get to "the awesome" bit?? :shrug:

well, TV IV is a special breed of badgoons. like for awhile there, you could get probated for saying anything about Girls and you better like it!!!

anyways, i don't look there much but i remember noticing most people in tviv being rabid fans who show up the second you say anything negative about a show, even the most shittiest poo poo (i.e. helix) you'll find people defending that. i think a more exact comparison would be goons on game of thrones where they read all 5 10,000pg books and watch every single episode while saying how bad it is because gasp, other people like it!

It's actually pretty terrible because of the supervillain poo poo, but I like to think that the guy who plays Gordon could be good on an actual detective show.

It's bad, like young adult novel, only a show, bad. Adults should be embarrassed if they watch it and say it's good.

Yeah, like I said, I agree, Gotham is terrible. That was more for when people started going "Also, all these other shows suck." Goons are hate-filled monsters

lol I remember when Terra Nova was on and, despite my being really excited for it, the show sucked and they were losing literally hundreds of thousands to millions of viewers each episode, so I said something like "man this show had a lot of potential but I can totally understand why it's hemorrhaging viewers in the 6-7 digits" and had a poo poo load of responses like "gently caress you this show is just finding it's core audience" and "yeah "hemorrhaging" loving idiot :rolleyes:"

It made me pretty happy when the show was :aaa: CANCELLED BECAUSE OF LOW VIEWERSHIP :aaa:

I watched the first 2-3 episodes just to give it a fair shake. The cinematography is really good, but man there's nothing else there to like. Bruno Heller was involved with Rome, which is one of my favorite shows. But drat. They really should have made a Gotham Central show instead.

Here's my impression of TVIV:

Thread About a Bad Show: Haha, this show sucks so much I can't believe how low it's sunk since the first season! Can't wait to tune in next season!
Thread About a Popular Show: Hey guys did you notice this thing that just happened, I predict that (gives away the ending).

Geeky girls. The same ones that watched angel and buffy back in the day. Agent carter, shield, and the flash also fall into this category.

I agree except for the Flash. You haven't actually watched the Flash yet, have you? The show strikes a great balance between Barry Allen's everyday life and his Superhero persona. The Flash is actually awesome.

The Flash made Captain Cold a legitimate bad guy.

Or were you talking about the post Burton-Batman Flash from 1990?
