[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 9852573, member: 22779"] I dunno what to say man. I don't do that? I'm pretty easy to please typically, so, I'll try anything pretty much. Tried it, didn't like it. Only tried it again because of recommendations (I.e. doing homework) that the show was worth my time. Turns out it wasn't. I'm a little surprised that the makers of a Marvel show thought that people who like Marvel shows would like a show with no super heroes, no super villains, no action and a bunch of scenes of standing around talking. I know people keep pointing to things like Winter Soldier for examples of blending genre. I'd point out that Winter Soldier has superheroes fighting, like, a lot. That elevator fight scene is iconic. Even Loki had lots of action plus the whole retro-futurism and SF thing going. I'm sorry for not expecting extended scenes of our protagonist sitting in a movie theater watching an old movie. :erm: Or spending extended time talking to his agent about getting a spot in a movie. Like, I'm sorry, I just don't care. If this wasn't a Marvel show, I wouldn't have even turned it on. As it was, I certainly would not recommend this to anyone. But hey, you do you. I'm still baffled why you keep arguing with me. I am AGREEING with you. Had I done homework and looked up the show beforehand, I probably would have skipped it. 🤷 Doesn't change anything really. For me, this was not worth my time. [/QUOTE]
