Twin Peaks has a wonderful first season, I think you'd be very into it, Iz! The second is unfortunately a bit of a slog in the middle but it apparently gets better at the end, I'm actually yet to finish it laugh.gif I do eventually intend to though.

Day 28. First show you were obsessed with: Merlin

It was most likely one of this, Doctor Who, The Simpsons, Dexter's Lab or Friends but I've gone this far without reusing shows so I'll use this. While it was fairly repetitive and episodic in nature, I liked the characters and there were some wonderful high fantasy moments that always pleased me. That ending was awful tho...

27. A show that deteriorated in quality. Trollied

I really enjoyed it when it was new but gave up on the most recent seasons.

28. First show you were obsessed with. Dick & Dom In Da Bungalow

I mean it's really the Teletubbies but I was too young to remember that and this was the first TV show I have memory of being obsessed with. I used to wake up early on Saturdays just for this.

Oh yes Misfits, another show that was weakened by it’s original cast leaving. Although I do feel it may have held up slightly better if they didn’t have to remove Lauren. I did like Abbey out of the new characters though!


I think the thing about Misfits for me is that I can clearly recall most of the first three seasons' plots and cared hugely about the characters and how they were going to live with these powers (I was really bummed out when Nikki died because she felt like she was naturally integrating into the group and if the new characters had been integrated like that it would have felt better) and she died if I recall in quite a trivial way and it always annoyed me that they didn't time travel back to stop it in some way. Hence Abbey was easily the best of the new characters because she was also integrated in a similarly steady way, giving her some character, but I can only recall like one episode from the later seasons kinda well and it's that one where there are sex numbers above everyone's heads for some reason so that's only because the plot is notably goofy rather than it being good.

Definitely feels like the the first season is legendary from what I know. I'll have to consider starting it.

I actually LOVED the final season and towards the end of Season 4 but omg was it a battle and a half to get there. I struggled and powered through and struggled more because it couldn’t capture me. I don’t know, I guess I appreciate it is a very very good production but, for the most part, it wasn’t my cup of tea

Day 29. A show that you don't get the hype for - Game Of Thrones (I've tried SO many times but just can't get into it at all, I have no idea how it's such a phenomenon because it's just so dull and overwrought)

Awww, I thought similar to you about Breaking Bad, Klaus, but I loved it from about Season 3 onwards! Season 1/2 was a complete slog though.

-x-

Day 29. A show that you don't get the hype for - Scrubs

idk I just don't remember anything about it, it's just kinda 'there' and I never got much of a laugh or particularly felt like revisiting it or even remember...anything, maybe it will benefit from a rewatch but ehhh

Day 29: A show you don't get the hype for: Friends

I only finished watching Friends from start to finish for the first time when it was put on Netflix, and while I thoroughly enjoyed it, I just can't grasp how it's the phenomenon it is? Sure, it's pretty funny most of the time, pleasant to watch and Phoebe is just everything you could want in a comedy character, but I can't say I feel the urge to go back and rewatch any time soon, or even watch repeats on TV like everyone seems to love doing whenever they've got spare time. laugh.gif

Friends is a good show but it's so overhyped. It has charm and It's comfort food for a lot of people I suppose, but there's no way it should be considered to be the greatest sitcom of all time.

I get that with Friends too, it's odd to say it's overhyped when I think it's a brilliant show but the level of hype and praise it gets is almost unparalleled and it's just not THAT good!

I mean even Seinfeld and Frasier are overhyped to a certain degree, just not on the same level like Friends is.

Day 30: Saddest character death: Derek Shepherd (Grey's Anatomy)

There are SO many I could have gone for here (Mike in Desperate Housewives, Maxine in Waterloo Road, Lexa in The 100, Mandy in Shameless, and (not technically a death, but emotional af nonetheless) Donna in Doctor Who) but ultimately went with Derek. It's not so much him actually dying that hits me, it's the sheer brilliance of the whole story when it happens, the acting from Ellen Pompeo in particular, and the ripple effect afterwards. The scene in the hospital where Meredith lets him go is truly heartbreaking. cry.gif And of course, we got Arizona in a later episode slaying someone for being inconvenienced by his death *.* It still managed to make me cry and feel all the feels even though my friends that had caught up before me spoiled.

Thanks for starting this Klaus! heart.gif It's been great to have a little throwback to some of the finest (and not so fine) moments of TV. Would be great to have another one with different questions later down the line!

Day 30: Saddest Character Death: Danielle Jones - Eastenders

Ok bit of a curveball for me for the last day but, back when I watched Eastenders, Ronnie was my favourite character and the storyline of her lost daughter was one of my favourites. Ronnie had all the tragic storylines and Danielle wasn’t living the best life either, this was like the potential for them both to have a real happy moment. And it was building and building and building and you were ready for the reward, only for it to be taken away at the blink of a second!!

Day 30: Saddest Character Death: Badger (The Animals of Farthing Wood)

I mean yeah the show killed a lot of characters, but this one was especially effective. Animal deaths are like the saddest ever, and I loved this show growing up and really liked how it didn't skirt over serious issues even with anthropomorphic animals. Badger (who completely gave me the wrong impression of actual badgers for a long time kink.gif) was a wonderful character and him dying of old age and getting dementia, not even remembering his friend Moley was just...cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

So in sum:

Day 01. A show that should have never been cancelled: Utopia
Day 02. A show that you wish more people were watching: Inside No. 9
Day 03. Your favourite new show: The Terror
Day 04. Your favourite show ever: Doctor Who
Day 05. A show you dislike: The Jeremy Kyle Show
Day 06. Favourite episode of a show: Band Geeks (SpongeBob SquarePants)
Day 07. Least favourite episode of a show you love: Silence Lay Steadily (The Haunting of Hill House)

BELATED CATCHUP

Day 24: Your favourite animated show
Gravity Falls



Two twin siblings spent their Summer in a mysterious town with their scheming great uncle. The show is filled with mystery and a good balance of humour and story. There's also some clever foreshadowing throughout the show (which I love in story-driven shows like this. Another notable example being the presence of a snail in a few scenes in some Adventure Time eousides to represent The Lich), as well as having one of my favourite villains in media in the form of Bill Cipher.




Day 25: An old show you plan on watching

Twin Peaks



I haven't seen this show yet, but from what I'm hearing, it looks to be excellent. Love the theme song and a few of the clips I've seen (The "Meanwhile" scene especially shook me when I first saw it and it shows that David Lynch is great at horrors and thrillers) were great.





Day 26: Your ideal spinoff show


I would like a Doctor Who spinoff showing the Doctor's adventures following the 1996 movie and before the events of "Rose". I would like to see more of the 8th Doctor, and it would be great to see what were the catalysts of the Time War that led to Gallifrey's demise. I wouldn't mind if it was live-action or animated.


Day 27: A show that deteriorated in quality: ???



Day 28: First show you were obsessed with

SpongeBob SquarePants


One of my childhood favourites that has aged really well with its colourful characters and its quirky tone. It's filled with many funny, quotable moments that have become memes throughout the history of the Internet.
