There's this horror movie where a deranged lunatic with orange hair takes over the government of a powerful country and makes a fool out of himself almost every day. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

I finally watched The Office to the end, but no one wants to talk about it, so I won't. |

It ended for me after the 4th or 5th season. Same plotlines over and over, I stopped caring. Same is happening with Modern Family. The first 5 seasons were gems, now it's not funny at all. And it's been renewed for 2 more seasons. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I watched it till the end when it aired. It just wasn't the same without Steve Carrell. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

That's about where I stopped, too, but I was laid up for about a week and needed to binge something and I picked the last few seasons of The Office. There were some good laffs, but overall it didn't get any better, that's for sure. |

(unless someone claims, that's it's going to pay off eventually if I just have patience) You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

TV is where all the good stuff is now, it you look for it. I find most movies now are pure crap. Either poor writing and bad acting and all CGI, or good acting and an awful or boring story. I stick with the franchise movies, at least I know what I'm getting. Batman, Star Trek, Bond, Pirates, etc. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Some people say that when DVD's were released in 1999 and HBO came out with "The Sopranos" was the dawn of the new age of home entertainment. At the same time 1998 with "Saving Private Ryan" was the last year that a movie oriented primarily towards adults was #1 at the box office. |

| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | I was 12 in '61. Westerns dominated the TV dial, you could not escape them. And they were all the same, good guys killing bad guys. Nothing more than that. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
