Did you consider that with such a complex story and large cast the show might take more than one and a half episodes to show you everything?
The show has indeed been about power projection mechanisms, once it set up the universe and cast enough.
It's one thing to watch an episode and a half and say "eh, not for me." It's another entirely to declare you know "the show" and speak authoritatively about it as a whole when you haven't seen four fifths of the material.
- malermeister 5y agoThose two (not sure where you're getting 1.5 from) episodes have been completely incompatible with the source material already. There's no reason to go any further, in the same way you don't need to see the derailed train come to a complete stop to know it's not gonna make it to the station.
- KennyBlanken 5y agoYou said you didn't even finish the second episode. If that's not what you meant, chose your words more carefully. Tortured analogies ignored: you declared the series to be absent something that has been present in spades in the latter episodes and you still don't realize how that makes you look.
- rockemsockem 5y agoOP deserves credit. They accurately classified this show after less than 2 episodes. I'm resigned to watching all of season 1, despite how awful it is. The worst thing is that they already renewed this crap, so we'll have to wait even longer for a potentially good Foundation.
- boublepop 5y agoYour comment reminds me of a friends recommendation to watch The Arrow. “The first two seasons are really bad, but if you stick through it they become ok” It’s ok to not want to watch a show that sucks originally. We don’t need to watch it to completion in order to pass judgement on something that just didn’t hit the mark.
- simonh 5y agoI love this guide to the key Buffy episodes. There's no way I could re-watch the whole show, but this looks achievable. I wish there were more guides like this. https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/buffy-the-vampire-slayer-an-episode-roadmap-for-beginners/ https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/buffy-the-vampire-slayer-an-epi... I watched the first season of Arrow but it was a bit of a slog towards the end, and never got anywhere with season 2. It showed a lot of promise it almost delivered on. Maybe I should give it another go, but a guide like this would be invaluable.
