I just started watching West Wing, fuck off. Yes, I know I'm like 15 years late to the party, fuck off again. It's a great show, and I just never got around to it. And it's NOT known in Europe.
.. fair enough. That kind of makes sense, I suppose.

No it doesn't. But that is English for you.
I'm teaching Smelly a language Red. Free lessons.
Were they the first four episodes? The show definitely gets better (though I thought the beginning was pretty awesome as well). There are some moments in the show that will leave you staring at your screen while the credits roll like "holy fuck". It's easily my favourite show. Bryan Cranston is an incredible actor.
Stop that. Watch Breaking Bad.

Shhh. Smelly is still learning.
Send it to PM, no one gives a fuck. We get it, you're an English major, time to move on.
I like how I'm the one getting grammar nazi'd but also the only not not offended.
No. I'm watching West Wing.
It's all that's making him feel better about having no career path, throw him a bone once in a while.

The last show that had me staring at my screen was... None. I think Mass Effect 3's ending caused it. But none of that for shows.
And yeah, the first three.

You sound salty. If you think I corrected him because I'm an English major, you're mistaken.
Are you surprised? It's Red.
There's a couple episode endings of BB in particular I can think of that left me sitting there for a few minutes. Season 3 and beyond, mostly.
Bad choice, Smelly.

Wonderful. I have to sit through three. :lol
I watched a few episodes of Dexter with my friend at her place back in... 2010? I liked it then. But I think it was Season 1. Does it go downhill?
S3 ending of BB is one of the better season finales I can remember of any show.
Have you ever SEEN West Wing?
Plus, I really like (US/general) politics. So I'm into it anyway. Also, the show's actually really good.

Our political system is fucking ridiculous. Watch House of Cards of you like the West Wing. You'll love it.
House of Cards is about the political system, too? I don't know much about it beyond it being the Netflix-selfmade series. I'll keep that in mind, thanks. I have 7 season of West Wing to cover.
I'm not sure. My girlfriend watched it. She was in love with the first few seasons. I didn't watch because I heard it gets really disappointing. She said it definitely gets worse as it goes on.
I can't recommend the show enough.
Haven't seen West Wing. Don't doubt it's a good show. Do doubt it's in the same league as Breaking Bad.

Yes. Very good look of the games that go on inside the political system.
Huh. will have to ask my friend if she thought the same.
West Wing won 9 Emmies in its first season, 27 total awards won, 4th most of all tv series. (Over 7 seasons) Breaking Bad has 7 awards over the course... 4.5 seasons?
So... if I were you I wouldn't throw out that statement so easily.

I hate gifs where the words don't match up to what is being mouthed
The fact that the west wing won emmys over the sopranos just shows what a joke awards are.
The fact that West Wing won more awards in its first season than Breaking Bad in its entire 4.5 seasons so far shows that you can't say "West Wing isn't even in the same league as Breaking Bad" as a generalized statement.
It's AT LEAST in the same league. I'm not saying the emmies are the best measure of quality, but if there's that much of a difference, that at least says something.

Okay fuck you too smelly
Part of it is being mouthed. He's saying "CAN'T DO".
Breaking Bad is not overrated. Or are you talking about West Wing?
LOST is overrated, though, I agree...and I liked the first couple seasons of LOST and watched all the way through.
:lol same in my gif, he says "Stand there in the wrongness". And I believe Red meant LOST, I got confused too. (hence the edit nvm post)

Pretty sure he meant LOST and one of Breaking Bad or West Wing.

I've watched BB, House of Cards, Sherlock, 24, Homeland, The Wire, GoT, Walking Dead, etc. etc.
Best season/series finale by far goes to Spartacus. What a fucking amazing show. The series finale drains you emotionally, all while giving you a sustained boner for the entire 60 minutes due to how badass it is.

I was referring to both Lost and TWW being overrated. BB is my personal "Best Show Ever", aside from Top Gear but I consider them separate.
It seems you've never seen the early seasons of The Simpsons.
Exactly, that's why I separate Top Gear from BB as well.
Note to self: Smelly's opinions about anything are now invalid
"Best Show Ever" sort of implies that any and all shows are included.

:lol I ain't even mad. I've given up a long time ago caring about what other people think about my tastes. I've said it before, but the new Fall Out Boy album is also pretty good. Just in case you need more material to hate me for.
I've seen every Scrubs episode at least 3 times. It remains the funniest show I've seen. To be fair, I'm biased by liking pretty much anything to do with medicine.

Touche...I guess I'd say I would never name a "best show ever" because, like I said, I'd find it near impossible to compare something like The Simpsons to something like Breaking Bad.
"Barney's movie had heart, but football to the groin had a football to the groin"
I'm going to pretend you never said that. It's best that way.

The GAF mentality of having trouble comprehending that people have different tastes extends even into here, I see.

Breaking Bad is great but The Shield is better.
It appears that you're having trouble comprehending that people have different tastes in hockey teams.
