      Aww thats a shame about Dark, I got sucked in to that show 100% until the end.

      The office is good background TV for when you’re tired and just need to zone out and chuckle, its a very wholesome show, same with Parks and Rec.

        Wholesome?

        I don’t see juvenile irresponsibility and adversarialism as “wholesome”. If you wanna say funny, to each his own, but in no way is that show “wholesome”.

        The UK version of The Office isn’t wholesome. The boss is awful and has no redeeming qualities. The rest is just cringeworthy and not funny.

        Agree. Season 3 jumped the shark in my opinion. It’s bad enough that they just kept

        introducing more of the same old "and such-and-such is actually the offspring of this guy!

        But the s3 finale just felt completely random and confirmed all of mt suspicions about them not being able to provide meaningful explanations for most of the interesting stuff that happens

          What I liked about it is that it DOES have a meaningful, clear explanation in the end, unlike shows like Lost.

        I disagree, I think Dark was much more coherent. It was admittedly a bit convoluted, but I think it did a good job tying everything together.

        Whereas Lost was them constantly creating new mysteries that they didn’t have the answers too, and tying it up in the end with some random bullshit.
