Yeah it could work well if they are older.
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
I did watch S4 with my partner, just didn't enjoy it.
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
@agamemnonymous ah that's interesting. Yeah my partner preferred S4 to S3 but I felt the whole thing had jumped the shark.
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
Omg yes I forgot about Year of the Rabbit! Would have been great to have another season or two.
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
True. The hiatus killed it.
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
I ferl you on The Expanse but I don't think anyone would have liked it if they'd adapted the last 2 books.
Because of the time jump everyone's middle aged and interested in meetings and things, Amos isn't himself, and people that fans of the show were wondering about (eg Naomi's son Filip) are just not in it.

@GlitterInfection you've made me realise I should give it a rewatch. I get the feeling time and age will have really changed how I view some of those characters!
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
Totally. I really wondered where it was going.
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
@GlitterInfection thanks for that! I'd been thinking how great it is to not have to keep pressing enter. Too good to be true.
I liked the first 3 or 4 seasons but I felt it started flanderizing and also I was over Mr Big but he just ...kept being a thing.
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
Good point!
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
Yeah I think we actually agree on GOT - it is on my list because it suddenly took a turn for the worst in the last 2 seasons. I'd have loved it if they'd just made it all and followed the books.
Who knows, maybe GRRM might have been motivated to finish them if it had gone down that way.
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
@GlitterInfection have I fixed the formatting? I'm on kbin and lists with no enter between them look ok but I did sort of wonder if they don't on Lemmy.
I'm super old and started not liking Futurama over a decade ago. You guys are convincing me to give it another watch.
- Comment on Which shows do you think ended too soon, or went on too long? 4 months ago:
@otter have to admit I haven't seen it in a long time, should check it out and see if it's returned to form.
I remember in about 2011 thinking "huh, glad I didn't buy that Planet Express t shirt after all."

If people had just believed Anita Hill none of this needed to happen.

- Comment on Any classic B&W movie recommendations? 4 months ago:
Yeah it was a toss-up for me between recommending Yojimbo and Seven Samurai as an introduction to Kurusawa.

Or maybe the other Gaslight.
- Comment on Spike Lee and Denzel Washington reuniting for Akira Kurosawa remake 4 months ago:
Sure but I don't much want that to happen either.
- Comment on Spike Lee and Denzel Washington reuniting for Akira Kurosawa remake 4 months ago:
Yeesh, why make Kurosawa. That's like remaking Hitchcock.
- Comment on Addressing off-topic meta discussions and moderation of this community 5 months ago:
@Djinn I think your approach is totally fair enough.
This is the fediverse; a community doesn't have to be all things to all people.
If someone wants a review spinoff they can make one.
- Comment on RANT : The thing i miss from reddit is that when a series or movie came out or ended there would be a big discussion threads. 5 months ago:
Come to kbin, we don't federate downvotes so if the lemmys downvote you, you can't even see it.
Or try Beehaw, they don't have downvotes at all.
- Comment on Addressing off-topic meta discussions and moderation of this community 5 months ago:
There's a multireddit style aggregate of fediverse movie communities at https://kbin.social/c/Cinema if that helps with discovery.

@TheImpressiveX seconding this, they're the largest lemmy movie community. @THEDAEMON are you subscribed there?
Doesn't help with the TV stuff I guess.
- Comment on Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience? 6 months ago:
@XbSuper I didn't know anyone on reddit who doesn't subscribe to any subs. No one just sits on All the whole time. This is no different.
The cool thing about Collections is you don't have to curate them yourself. The people who do, can choose to share them as public (like the ones I've been linking to in here) and clicking follow adds them to your feed.
- Comment on Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience? 6 months ago:
@betabob I think it will. Also, I find myself developing preferences based on the typical commenters, mod styles etc.
- Comment on Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience? 6 months ago:
@betabob yeah give it a whirl. I have accounts all over the place but this one quickly became my main.
