well Lost is ok but for me all that supernatural stuff is too much. If they kept it more real I'd like it much more. And yeah I should have added the note to the rankings, like PB (first too seasons only), I agree on that one.

No dude, they're ending it at season 6, and seasons 5 and 6 will be shortened to 17 episodes to cut out filler and keep the story tighter.

Id recommend reading my article coming out next month on this issue.

Basically it's all about techinques for getting out of the downswing.

The Polar bears were not a screwup, they seemed random at the time, but there have been hints that there is more to that whole angle. More on this... ->

People seem to not get what lost is all about. The writers have known the ending since they started the show... only some of the middle stuff was "filler" (some excessive character development, some plot lines going no where, etc.) But since they signed a deal the gave the show a definite end date (end of Season 6), there have been almost no "pointless" episodes or plot lines. I'm pretty confidant that all the unanswered questions will be answered, and there are no major screwup that the writers didn't foresee. This includes the polar bears. This is a huge contrast to a show like Heroes, which had potential but is basically just a running sequence of writers screwing up and silly things.


Anyway, still The Wire > all.
11-24-2008 , 05:56 AM
Is the Wire really that good?
Never given it a try.

I think Dexter is probably the best TV show ever.
Prison break season 1 and 2 were very close, but lately it is just getting silly.

Lost is also great, but they are stretching it too far imo. Still I think that current Lost is better and more interesting than current prison break.
11-24-2008 , 06:20 AM
Yes, The Wire is really that good. It's like Shakespeare (or insert your favorite ultimate literature reference) for TV. Dexter is awesome, true, but Wire narrowly beats it imo.
11-24-2008 , 08:41 AM
oh, i also liked the first few seasons of "alias". got retarted at the end though
11-24-2008 , 08:45 AM
I get a little excited for your enthusiasm for Wire, but when I see what other shows you like the excitement always wears off.

THIS

lately i have been playing the BB in especific so f***** bad, maybe its just for starting to play lhe and dont defende well ( most prob.), maybe for trying to play4 table when not ready, maybe for beeing tired, tilted or playing without thinking (happpend when i am tired, making the "standard" play, and by standard i mean the worse obv), but lately i find myself i so many sh*tty spots on BB, not value betting them PF and find in bad spots post flop latelly.

ex. -not bet A7o in BB after 3 limper and the sb completes and finding myself leading on AJx two tone board without any clue what to do next

- not 3 betting enought.

- not calling and c/r many flop, but that is a huge leak i confess, since i normall like to c/r the turn instead of flop (today, i think you referend the hand where i got 97o and you k9 and i c/r/c on the turn or the other, one on a TTKXQ board? on that i folded a Qx on the river to your c/r on river.

-...

going to take 2 days out and see more vids and prob read the part of defending the blinds of the WITHG.
11-24-2008 , 10:24 AM
i cant remember the exact hands, but they were somewhat like that:

i raise CO/BTN, you defend Q7o, flop comes 347(somewhat like it) and you check/call

other was same preflop action, you defend 97, flop comes 29T and you check/call again.

you should c/r both there imho.
