On the other place I constantly saw memes of shows that I thought ‘well if they’re that popular they must be pretty good’

Shows like:

Avatar, The Office, Parks and Rec and IT Crowd

I’ve watched them and I just don’t get it. They aren’t so amazing that they are worth that level of adoration IMO. Avatar has its good spots and Parks and Rec is pretty enjoyable but I cringe at American office and IT crowd is forgettable.

However a show I actually really like, Community, only started getting the same type of treatment after the pandemic because people watched it on Netflix. Although it’s still not as popular as these others. Are people just really basic or am I out of touch?

Anyway, what show did you watch and think ‘I don’t get what the fuss is about’? Maybe it was Community?

    Nah it doesn’t require violence but when the camera pans away as the villain dies it’s a bit unsatisfactory.

    Or a large rock just falls on them it’s a bit cliche.

    Avatar is set in a world where people use fire and no one is burnt to death? If that was shown people would really fear/loathe the fire lord etc etc. it’s not required but there were definitely parts in the show where it felt like the show creators were limited by it being a kids show.
