For Star Trek you might just want to pick up one of the Fan Collectives which have a smattering of episodes from each series tied together by a common theme. Captain's Log is, without a doubt, the best of these, containing: The Original Series: The City on the Edge of Forever The Enterprise Incident Balance of Terror The Next Generation: In Theory Chain of Command Darmok Deep Space Nine: Far Beyond the Stars What You Leave Behind In the Pale Moonlight Voyager: Counterpoint The Omega Directive Flashback Enterprise: Judgment These Are the Voyages (WHO PUT THIS ON THE loving SET?) First Flight

I just burned through The Middleman for the first time since it was cancelled a few years ago. The dialogue in the first few episodes feels forced, but its still a great show and holds up well. Kilometers Davis posted:When does The Office (U.S.) get bad and when does it recover? It dips in season 4 and becomes unwatchable in season 5. There are a lot of great moments in season 6, but it never really recovers.

kaworu posted:Honestly, I watched the first season of The Walking Dead on the strength of how awesome the pilot was, and slowly got more and more disappointed and less and less interested. I was excited for the second season, in the hope that it would pick up, and just lost interest after like 3 episodes. It's not that it was SO awful, it was just really flat and lame and uninteresting. I would be a lot more interested in the show if the characters had a motivation or end game besides not getting eaten. Its hard to get emotionally invested in a twenty hour snuff film.

Nate RFB posted:Knee deep into season 4, I would say that Breaking Bad really comes into its own in season 3. 1-2 are still pretty good though. The show really does get better once they move away from the concept of Walt solving crime problems through the magic of chemistry and made it more about Walt being a hugely hosed up person. Mad Men went through a similar transformation when it become less about the plot and setting (Don's past, the 60s, etc) and more about the characters.

Random Stranger posted:What started out interesting and tense has gone completely off the rails. I had heard that things got bad but I wasn't prepared for how thinly they stretch their premise. I can only guess that everyone who was competent on the writing staff jumped over to Lost at this point (and they'd jump ship from Lost after a couple of seasons in the same way...). The rumors at the time were that the network made the producers dumb the show down after the first season. I don't know if there's any validity to that or if fans are just wanking themselves off, so take it with a grain of salt.
