yeah the writing is pretty formulaic and terrible, the premise wears thins after a few episodes and then it just becomes tedious to watch... just like weeds.

That said, there is more dong in this show than most, so kudos to netflix for not being stingy with the cock like every fucking HBO show is.

I've never seen Game of Thrones, but South Park made fun of it for the amount of dongs they show on screen.

That has been one of my complaints with HBO as well.

Weeds was awesome. Or at least the first few seasons were.

in a thread full of people judging it based on tits, yeah it's pretty weird :rolleyes:

Basing a show on tit content is just as stupid as dong content. If you are watching a TV show for the purpose of sexual stimulation, you're doing it wrong. There are much better mediums that television shows for that. If you're watching for entertainment, the amount of tits / dongs in the show shouldn't be effected by that, unless the lack thereof is a serious detractor (like a show about strippers never had them actually stripping).

I must be amongst those very few who don't care for sex and nudity in TV shows and movies.

Another reason I liked Utopia so much (created a thread for it) that they didn't resort to cheap tactics to sell it... Same for Breaking Bad

Pretentious Weeds sequel shining the spot light on the poor souls in lock up.

Crazy Eyes and a small portion of the tits are entertaining.


I watched season 1 of OitnB last year. Started watching Weeds this year. UGH, nowhere close. Weeds is the bastard stepchild of OitnB. Sorry, but the lead actress of Weeds is so predictable and couldn't act her way out of a paper bag. That and she is always carrying a styrofoam cup around with her and its just annoying as hell. I had no problems stopping watching Weeds.

now do you understand the reply? no one points this out until I make a reference to the opposite sex, then it becomes 'weird' and people get judgey about it. mission accomplished.
in other words, where were you to reply to all the posts about tits? you wouldn't have made this post had I not made mine.

On a more serious note, I'll judge the show on its first year of art-school level of writing and completely uninteresting lack of dynamic character development

I wouldn't say it took your reply, just one more "has lots of boobs so I watch it" type of mentality post. It is incredibly juvenile, but I know these posts can't be 12. A modern 12 year old would go look at porn on his computer or iPad. It is a bunch of 40 year olds stuck in that 12 year old mind set when they couldn't easily access boobs they actually wanted to see when they were 12.
