I always stop watching after he leavesIt went downhill without Michael Scott.
I loved Pam more than Jim did.

The post Michael Scott era of the Office is practically unwatchable.Everyone on Friends is just so unlikable. Not like Seinfeld where them being unlikable is the point and makes it funny, but they're supposed to be protagonists but they're all flat caricatures of 90s twenty-something hip New Yorkers with like 2 personality traits each.
I like the Office, but the problem is that after its peak (seasons 2-5), it feels like the writers got full of themselves and were way too self-serving. The last few seasons were a drag.
It wasn't the same for sure.The post Michael Scott era of the Office is practically unwatchable.
we watched it too. Surprisingly, it wasnt half bad.
@Gee Wally I’ve decided to start Deadwood due to your high praise.
So ***ing far, so ****ing good, but it’s only been one ****er****ing episode, go*****it.
Also started Lady Dynamite on Netflix. I like how bizarre it is.
I’m already hooked. The pilot was excellent.IMO, Al Swearengen is one of the greatest tv characters of all time.
It gets better and better.
Yes I'm hooked as well...I’m already hooked. The pilot was excellent.

The original Death at a Funeral versus American Death at a Funeral the same (unwatchable).The amount of character development they destroyed was something else.
What made the show unique was how every character, and their storylines, complimented the over-the-top boss in Michael Scott in their own quirky way. Then Michael Scott left, and they just cranked every character's idiosyncrasy to 11. It went from an incredibly well written show to an incredibly lazily written show. Which makes sense since a lot of the original writers had left.

If you are into Westerns, and you haven't seen the Lonesome Dove mini series (Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones), its a must-watch. Not the bullshit Lonesome Dove spin-offs......just the original miniseries. Augustus McRae and Woodrow Call are 2 of the great characters of American Literature.Yes I'm hooked as well...
If you like the cowboy thing consider watching Godless (A Must), Hell On Wheels, Billy the Kid, and 1883/1923 YellowStone prequels.
I'm a big old school cowboy movie junkie.
Hey thanks for sharing...I most certainly will watch!If you are into Westerns, and you haven't seen the Lonesome Dove mini series (Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones), its a must-watch.

That novel is still in my all-time top 3 favorite books as well, and the mini series does the book justice.
You mother f***ing er...
If you like it and want another show to watch after you're done with Deadwood, most of the same people involved with that show ended up doing a show called Justified. No Al Swearengen, but quite a few of the other actors and writers.
Yeah we’ve been watching. Elmore Leonard is my favorite author so I read the book the reboot is based on a long time ago. They’re doing a good job of being faithful to the original story despite it not being a Raylan Givens story.I don't know anyone who didn't love Justified. The new Justified: City Primeval series isn't bad either. Olyphant's real life daughter plays his daughter in the show.
Went back and finished Season 3 of Peaky Blinders tonight after a very long break.
Grantchester is back.
Love British period dramas.
My 23 year old nephew is living with us and just had to get knee surgery. He asked if there was a good “old school”TV show we could watch. He never heard of Band of Brothers.
Screening starts tonight. Episodes 1 and 2. So excited to watch for the…20th? time
I've been watching Taxi and All in the Family...so good.
IMO, Al Swearengen is one of the greatest tv characters of all time.
It gets better and better.
