gogo Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I like the Riches. I just saw it's not coming back I liked the parts of The Riches that stuck with the concept. And I liked most of the actors. It seemed like a lot of time was spent wrapping the characters up in impossible situations, though. They never really got to just live the life.

Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 ...Must be one of the earliest shark-jumping examples. No...that would be MY OWN WORST ENEMY. Jumped the shark 15 minutes into the first episode. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
M. (hristine Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 my bad. that was so un-me to throw that out there like that. sorry.So last night I get to the episode where Hank and Karen do it, and I'm not surprised. I rarely watch series when they are actually on so I'm used to knowing plot lines before I see them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Moses Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 (Six Feet Under was amazing til the end, the final episode wrapped everything up so perfectly.) the final episode was pretty good, i suppose. it was the third to last episode that absolutely pissed me off... Nate just dies? Just like that? Horseshit. I think I misunderstood the theme of the show perhaps, but Nate's search for meaning in life was epic and there was no payoff. Although George's speech about Nate at his funeral was pretty amazing Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just to be clear - I never meant to imply that you didn't understand it (and I'm not saying you're saying I implied that --- ahh, the web), but that was actually what I loved about it. The only letdown for me was the final episode, which had been hyped greatly by friends who saw it before me, rendering it kinda meh in my book. The show gave us as many answers as it could - showing when everyone dies. It couldn't show us after. I guess I like the lack of overreaching. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I like the lack of overreaching. so basically, you're calling me a dumbass? i've never been able to really stress exactly what i mean when i have this conversation with people. almost everyone has shared your opinion. i guess all i can really say is that i loved the show until nate died, and then it was basically ruined for me. i don't think i could ever go back and rewatch the show knowing that will happen.

OOO Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Sorry. In the Wizard of Oz, Verbal is Keyser Soze Also, the show Newhart was just a dream that Bob Newhart in The Bob Newhart Show had. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In the Wizard of Oz, Verbal is Keyser Soze Also, the show Newhart was just a dream that Bob Newhart in The Bob Newhart Show had. Just what exactly is the statute of limitations on spoilers? Jay Davidson in the Crying Game...safe to refer to or not?Bruce Willis in the Sixth Sense...safe to refer to or not?John Hurt in Alien...safe to refer to or not?Tim Robbins in Mystic River...safe to refer to or not? I say that if it happened in a movie...once it hits the video store and cable tv...it's fair game.For TV...once two weeks have passed...fair game. This is the wild and wooly internets...Al Gore didn't create it so we would have to use the stupid spoiler space for something that happened on a cable network show a year after it aired.
