My wife and I consider ourselves folks who appreciate quality TV. That having been said, there have been shows (Leftovers and Deadwood come to mind) where we didn't like them anywhere near as much as critics and 2P2. I raise this because we're nearly done with S1 of Reservation Dogs and we're like.......um, what is this? It's well acted but we feel like we're just watching a day in the life snapshots, without much of anything being interwoven. Without spoiling, does it stay like that through S2 and S3? We're thinking of cutting bait, but then again how hard is it to get through like 10 more hours of TV and risk missing out on something that we would think got better and is so widely acclaimed.

I liked the show and loved certain episodes. I’d stick with it because three of the best are in season 3. The show doesn’t change a lot from the way it is in season 1 but at the end you feel like you’ve said goodbye to a friend. I think it’s a bit overrated but there are some fantastic episodes mixed in. Deer Lady was probably my favorite.

along those lines, does what we do in the shadows improve after the pilot? kept hearing how good it is, and i know the pilot is often the worst ep in the series, but the whole thing was basically the same joke; hey we're weird, dorky vampires doing weird, dorky vampire things, yeah i get it. do they ever come up with a 2nd joke?

There are other things but it is a lot of that.

I loved rez dogs. as a native American, it probably means more to me than other people.

but if you're almost done with season 1, and still not enjoying it, you should quit. you won't be missing out on any vast improvements in later episodes. it stays fairly consistent.

ratingraph is a great resource for seeing how much shows improve or decline

Definitely gets better from S1E1 though the end of S2. Very hit or miss starting in S3 until present.

Just binged first four episodes of Baby Reindeer last night and got hooked. Very dark and twisted if that's your thing, and the acting by the female stalker is top tier.

I love What We Do In The Shadows. I know you can scoff at ratings and awards/nominations, but it does do pretty well...



Also has a bunch of great guest stars, if you like that kind of thing.

I think What We Do in the Shadows is really great stuff. I'd stick with it. Even when there was a season long arc that I didn't love, there were still plenty of superb episodes. And it finds humor in all sorts of manners, so there really is something for most everyone, or at least that's my view.

alright, thanks everyone
