You're building a veritable wedding cake of logical fallacies here. I liked the one where anyone who dares to dislike this show must--obviously!--like shitty NBC sitcoms. Now do the one about how critics who think it sucks are just trolling to get paid for pageviews like a bunch of Gawker fucks. Oh, no, wait; The fucking Atlantic did that already.

Let me guess: you're one of the people who loves this show simply because it's rank-and-file Democratic Party word porn?

I can only speak for myself, but I'm a fan of Sorkin. Since long before his shows were filled with "Democratic Party word porn"

I like the show. I watch the show. Its the first season where characters develop. It will get better. I know there's lots of silly drama between the characters but realism and TV rarely ever go together.

Its a fictional TV show made by people that are good at it. i dont like THE Walking Dead's subject matter. I think its silly actually. But its done well. I watch it anyway. Some here watch ten episodes, will probably watch next season and do nothing but complain about it.

Critics review shows all of the time. Thats their job. They loved Lost. I hated it. I didnt watch it to prove to them they were wrong. I gave three episodes and I was done. I DIDNT WATCH it after that.

The 4th episode of Lost was "Walkabout" and was the best episode of the entire series.

It would have hooked you and set you up for years of disappointment from heightened expectations.

I think Sorkin deserves an apology for the complaints about how stupid he made Alison Pill's character...because apparently she tweeted a naked picture of herself she meant to delete:

http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/gossip/alison-pill-nude-photo-newsroom-actress-accidentally-tweets-t0pless-picture-article-1.1157944

At least her fiance is taking it well:

"My fiancée is an hilarious dork. #imjustgladitdidnthappentomefirst. Smartphones will get ya," he tweeted.

Disagree, the epidosde arc where they introduced Ben as Henry Gale and he basically mind fucked everyone in the hatch were the best IMO.

You can't say an episode arc is the best episode. That's more than 1 episode.

You are both incorrect and I am, of course, right.

I agree. Daniels and Waterson were an A+. The acting overall was between ok and decent. The writing was like a D.

Not sure why this got in over The Walking Dead. Not a lot of dialogue in Dead but much better show.

Not too shabby.

Need to figure out an alternative to DirecTV that will allow me to start watching these again...I'm a big fan and I managed to get the gf hooked on them during a marathon viewing session a few weeks ago...

There is no reason for this show to be on HBO, unless we start seeing some skin.

I enjoy the banter between Daniels and Mortimer, but it was a pretty weak start.

Gawker has Dan Rather reviewing the show, and he's about as vapid and slack-jawed as you'd expect him to be.

This show would be so much better without an ugly Alison Pill. WTF were they thinking casting her in that role??

Really need someone younger and hotter. And someone who will get naked.
