Yeah, he hasn't even met the best characters yet. [Reply]

At the very least follow the story arc that leads to the end of season 5 (that was the creator's arc--planned it to be a 5-season series). After that it lulls a bit, then picks back up, and then lulls again with this past season, imo. [Reply]
I will get back to it, just am behind on so many shows as it is. One episode of GoT left. Two seasons of Dexter left. Three seasons of Breaking Bad left. Ton of books and comic books I'm working on too. Just finished Preacher (awesome, going to be a tough transition to TV). If it weren't so CW it would probably be higher on my list of priorities. Love the soundtrack, and there have been some really good episodes and stories. [Reply]

I was checking this thread out because I got into a few episodes of Supernatural and I was entertained. I have a lot of old shows to watch/catch up on so I wanted to read some of the feedback. But...
Dexter. I know you won't stop watching. It was really, really good up until the end of the fourth season. You will want to follow the characters and you probably don't believe that the show could get that bad that quickly. It does. It falls off a cliff. The writing turns to shit with poor dialogue and the integrity of the characters is destroyed with unbelievable, cliched actions. The plots have giant holes that will leave you shaking your head. The production value plummets to CBS Movie Of The Week quality. This giant shit-filled snowball just rolls on and on downhill until it builds into a massive Coyote versus Roadrunner finale that is somehow simultaneously devoid of impact and yet infuriating. If you think you would enjoy being dry humped by a large beagle for two hours then by all means watch the next two seasons and destroy any positive memories of this show that you still have. [Reply]
Thought the season premiere was okay. Not great, not terrible, just okay. Hopefully it gets better, but given last season, I'm not holding out high hopes. And...

Rage zombies? Really? Come on Supernatural... Welcome to 5 years ago.
