On the other place I constantly saw memes of shows that I thought ‘well if they’re that popular they must be pretty good’
Shows like:
Avatar, The Office, Parks and Rec and IT Crowd
I’ve watched them and I just don’t get it. They aren’t so amazing that they are worth that level of adoration IMO. Avatar has its good spots and Parks and Rec is pretty enjoyable but I cringe at American office and IT crowd is forgettable.
However a show I actually really like, Community, only started getting the same type of treatment after the pandemic because people watched it on Netflix. Although it’s still not as popular as these others. Are people just really basic or am I out of touch?
Anyway, what show did you watch and think ‘I don’t get what the fuss is about’? Maybe it was Community?
The Star Wars prequels.
The prequels were memed because they were awful (except episode 3 which I will still maintain is better than episode 6) but somehow perception warped to make people think they were good or okay at best. The first 2 are terrible.
If the star wars universe debuted with episode one, we would not have a star wars universe. The sound track rocked, and uh, there were rocks on planets.
That’s a really astute observation, and not one I’ve heard before. Episode I would not have been enough to form the bedrock of the Star Wars phenomenon.
The third one is also terrible. Just slightly less terrible than the first two.
I though the 3rd one was worse than 1 and 2 tbh.
Each one was worse than the one before
It’s like poetry, it rhymes.
No you don’t understand, it’s the darker one. That makes it good.
Dark?
But it ended with a 20 minutes long flawlessly choreographed dance number. I thought it was super fabulous!
