1st season of True Detective is the best show of all time - imo
...and the second season one of the worst.
They third tried hard to redeem itself but went too slow and serious.
I went back and watched Season 2
It was much better second time around

Is that code for no Alexandra Daddario?
Season 2 was good but Season 1 was so good it was going to be hard to follow. Season 3 fell in between in my ratings. What I liked about this series is that each season has its own identity.

British gameshows with comedians on them generally add up to way less than the sum of their parts.
8 Out of 10 Cats has Rachel Riley to rescue the show when the comedians get a bit tedious. Used to enjoy Pointless

Popular doesn't equal good.
Rolling Stone magazine recently released their Top 100 TV shows. The list includes series and talk shows, and is US-centric. Like all polls, I don't take these too seriously.
The Top 10 was:
- The Sopranos
- The Simpsons
- Breaking Bad
- The Wire
- Fleabag
- Seinfeld
- Mad Men
- Cheers
- Atlanta
- The Mary Tyler Moore Show
The 100 Greatest TV Shows of All Time
The definitive ranking of the 100 best shows in TV history, as determined by a poll of actors, producers, showrunners, critics, and the staff of Rolling Stone.
Thought Homeland and Handmaids Tale would have been in there unless I scrolled too quick and missed.

Unpopular opinion: Seinfeld.
Kramer, Kramer shits me.
George and Newman had riveting machismo on a string but Jerry and Elaine were mostly just irritating. -

Found Newman annoying and unfunny.
Never bought into his diabolical persona
Just seemed like an overacting fat man. -

There should be a rule that if someone mentions in this thread something or someone they hate, that a smartarse (trademark @Bones) doesn't post that very thing/someone...

I'd agree people look too much into Matrix these days, but at the time I thought it was excellent and original.

If you didn't get joy from headbanging Bohemian Rhapsody in Wayne's World in the 90s then you missed a good time.
I'm not a huge fan but can appreciate his voice and their unique songs.

Matrix: First Matrix is great, sequels not so much.
Squid Game: was fun.
Dredd: Yes. But don't think it's a hot take or unpopular opinion.
Queen: Nope. I'd swap in Fleetwood Mac as I personally do not like their music.
Ace Ventura: Nope.
Cats: Nope.
Dogs: When they are it's usually the fault of their owners.
