Senor Tron posted:This is like me and Seinfeld. I never watched it when it was first airing, and now going back while I can recognize that it must have been amazing for its time and had a lot of influence, I've seen other shows do the same things better now. I've been watching through The Simpsons recently, because my mom never let me watch it when I was a kid (and I was a kid when it was HUGE). A lot of it is funny, but it definitely cannot ever have the impact on me that the show would have if I had been old enough in the early 90s to understand all of the jokes. There's also the catchphrase component, where for example one has read a certain internet forum for years where the "my son is also named Bort" quote has been repeated endlessly. When one gets to the actual line being said in the show, it is underwhelming :-/ p.s. i LIKE frozen yogurt you weirdos. let me eat the thing that i like ok

I watched it through since when it originally came out and wow there's a lot of early season episodes that I watched when I was four or five that had some jokes that I definitely didn't get until decades later. And made the episodes a lot funnier.

Also remember that immediately before it at 9, the new season of Brooklyn 99 premieres! Now you have a double dose of Michael Schur and the two best sitcoms on TV right now all in one place.

Shrewd move on their part because that switch guarantees B99 gets my live views when otherwise sometimes I might have watched The Orville live instead.

I never watched it until late last Summer when I binged through all five seasons. I enjoyed them all fairly equally ![]() One of the hardest laughs television has ever given me https://vimeo.com/281101374

With them running back to back, I just hope we end up having an episode of B99 ending with a Kevin scene and a Good Place episode opening with a Shawn scene.

Yeah, the last season of B99 was as good as any other. I get differences in personal taste, but if you like early 99, not liking the latter seasons would be an aberration.
