re: #371 Walter L. Newton

I can’t change the way you feel.

I “found” the show 3 years ago, had to catch up on the whole meme, but I’m certainly a fan, not fanatic, but certainly someone who follows the show much closer than a couch potato, and unless someone has manufactured a six year hoax, most of the “insider” information I have read and seen discussed back up the claim that this show was well conceived and planned from the beginning, unlike many episodic evening TV that rambles on and on until canceled, and then the writers have to come up with hopefully a plausible wrap up to the story.

I really like these shows that have a specific story to tell and they tell it and then they end it like The Wire or BSG or Life on Mars (BBC one, not the one on American TV, which was good, but not as good as the BBC).
