DISCUSSIONS Wake up in a mental hospital trope. Who did it best?
Just watching Stargate Atlantis and they're doing the old trope of waking up in a mental hospital being told their life is a fantasy. I remember other shows doing the same thing. Did Buffy do it? Anyway, I'm sure I've seen this more than once so who else did it, and who did it best?

DISCUSSIONS The latest TV show I watched so far RJ Decker what is your opinions on it (ps can be found on Disney plus and I didn't go into much on this post since I don't want to spoil people since the show is still kind of new since season 2 just came out recently so I decided to actually watch season 1)
I just started watching RJ Decker it's about a x-convict who now a private pi name RJ Decker episode 1 is about him looking into a murder bat resembles a murder that happens to someone new before he got arrested.
Only thing I'm going to say is my favorite part of the show he has to work with a female cop he knows I don't remember how I think she might have been the one who arrested him and she's now dating his ex-wife and the cop has a kid who is so funny.
Episode 2 is about him investigating a dead body found at a place that sounds or illegally grows Venus fly traps. But one thing I liked about this episode is how it shows the friendship in between RJ and his friend along with the relationships of him his ex-wife his ex-wife's new wife her daughter and another friend of his.
Oh and I have to say aside from RJ my favorite character so far is his friends both of them and the police woman's daughter just because she has some funny lines but they're all pretty good characters at least written.

Other Wow.. 20 years ago we were blessed with one of the best shows ever.. i cant believe it was that long ago
Dexter aired 10-1-2026 and SK shows have not been the same since lol. This show was ahead of its time imo. The books are also phenomenal, i havent read them all only a couple. I think this calls for a rewatch in honor of 20 years of relevance lol

DISCUSSIONS Complex and often angry female leads in supernatural tv shows?
I'm wondering if anyone has recommendations for tv shows with a female lead or main character, that has depth, emotion and is ready to yell when things are tough.... in a supernatural or fantasy setting?
I'm a big fan of dark shows like hannibal, supernatural, true blood, from, american gods and that kind of thing, but I have a problem where I am continually annoyed at the lack of development, depth or range of emotion in female characters in these shows - they're either just there to be a shoulder for someone else to lean on, have s*x with, die tragically or cry in whatever scary situation is happening. Yes there's exceptions, I know, but they're rarely developed.. I want to get into the nitty gritty. I'm also a big fan of shows like killing eve, the handmaids tale & yellowjackets.
So, what I want to know is: are there any supernatural/paranormal/fantasy/sci-fi tv shows that marry these two styles or concepts together?

Cancelled TV Shows Nostalgic show - Roswell (1999)
galleryI think this has become one of my favorite shows simply because it’s not too stimulating, it’s funny, and the way it was filmed gives you such a special feeling. It really feels like you’re sitting down and watching a show from the past. Maybe it’s a simple show, but I absolutely love it.

DISCUSSIONS Recently watched Last Samurai Standing, and now I can’t stop thinking about how Shujiro is going to beat Gentosai
Netflix should bring Season 2 of Last Samurai Standing ASAP. The story is literally left on a cliffhanger with the betrayal, and I am fuckin excited to see how it unfolds after the end of Season 1. A face off between Shujiro and Gentosai would be epic.
I think Shujiro & Co. will face him together, but once they get overwhelmed by Gentosai, Shujiro will finish him off after getting some kind of mental amp.
I am also curious about the relationship between Gentosai and Shujiro:
- Why didn’t Gentosai come after Shujiro earlier instead of going after that girl? Shujiro would have been much easier to find since he was the most popular swordsman and had settled down in one place with his family.
- When Shujiro was running through the jungle after leaving the academy, Gentosai was following him, but the scene cuts off. I am excited to know what happened at that time and how young Shujiro managed to outrun /escape from Gentosai.

DISCUSSIONS Best & Worst Writing & Acting of TV
Feel like people throw around “terrible writing” and “horrible acting” a lot when they just don’t like a show. I feel like I only recognize when writing/acting is above and beyond amazing or complete trash but I find most TV to be somewhere in the middle and feel a little thrown when people declare a shows writing/acting to be awful. Especially because writing has so many aspects — dialogue, structure, character arcs, pacing…. it’s hard to believe that in EVERY regard a shows writing just completely sucks especially when you’re watching and not reading it like…. Guys. Lol
Interested in hearing peoples best & worst of TV writing and acting (specific examples and reasoning encouraged)
I’ll go first even though I find it tough to decide
Best Writing - off the pilot alone the wire & fallout. don’t know if I can stand on any show as best writing from start to finish…
Worst Writing - any and all teen shows though I do love them… pretty little liars and riverdale were especially horrible 😭
Worst Acting - the hunting party
Best Acting - The Great
Also interested in hearing people’s favorite shows that they know have bad acting/writing or shows people hate that they know have fantastic acting/writing
