Character-driven shows are not necessarily soapy. Zalis Send a noteboard - 11/03/2011 08:45:52 PM
When I hear people make this claim, I wonder what shows they like. If it's anything like my friend of the same opinion, he generally doesn't watch shows with any kind of character development. He prefers a decent show that entertains, has some action, but ultimately doesn't require him to attach to the characters.

What's good to you, then? (I ask this out of genuine curiosity, rather than antagonism) LOST wasn't perfect, but it's one of my favorite television series.
The sword might be grateful to the forge fire, but never fond of it.

I ask you the opposite, is there such thing as a good one? I personally think not. *NM* - 11/03/2011 02:42:18 AM 445 Views

The whole show was basically a soap opera, so by definintion, no episodes were good. *NM* - 11/03/2011 03:22:37 PM 442 Views
