Four-Eyed Raven Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I really wanted to like this show. I believe I gave it 5 or 6 episodes before falling off the wagon and not getting back on. It just didn't develop like I'd hoped, and I had a lot of issues with the writing not being very good for some scenes. But I can be pretty picky about that kind of stuff, so maybe it's just me. I did enjoy the time period aspect of it, and I think Lee Pace did a good job. But I never got attached to any of the characters either. If the next season greatly improved, perhaps I'd try it again with some convincing. AMC is going to have a hard time making a show as captivating and quality as Breaking Bad or Mad Men, in my opinion. Looking forward to Better Call Saul.

Jack Bauer 24 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I really enjoyed this first Season and I hope it is renewed for a second Season. Anyone think it'll be renewed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denstorebog Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I stuck with it to the end, and I'll continue if a second season comes up. I wasn't always entertained or completely able to comprehend what was going on, but it had enough worthwhile elements. It was certainly more interesting during the convention episodes with their do-or-die premise. What on earth was up with the car theft? That just came out of nowhere and wasn't mentioned again.

the hound of sansa Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I came to this show for Lee Pace (because <3 Lee Pace) , but actually his characters wasn't that good.As everyone is saying , they made him a poor lookalike fot Don Draper. But he is missing Don's best bits. He is not nearly as charismatic. I mean everytime he wanted to sell himself it fell a little flat.His best parts were when he differentiated from Don. For example Don would never lose his shit in front of a costumer. He would yell , maybe get angry but he would leave the room with his dead held high, because he is a narsicist.Joe, on the other hand, came many times to a position, were he was losing an argument , and simply had nothing more to add to save his situation, and was frustrated that the other person couldn't understand his perfect vision. Joe is acting like a spoiled kid who thinks that the world owes him everything, just because!And in that moments , i think , he shined most.Luckily the show was renewed for a second season, because i want to see more of Donna.

Martini Sigil Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Is this show a comedy?... I got the impression that it was... If it's humor is organic, and worked into the plot --like Justified or Fargo or Banshee-- I'm fine with it... if it's a sitcom I probably won't dig it.

RedEyedGhost Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 It's not even remotely a sitcom. Drama all the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetyrPunkinhead Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I found S1 was a bit sluggish at times, but I enjoyed it overall. Great cast and I love the setting. I'm curious to see where this all goes in S2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedEyedGhost Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Season 2 has been fantastic, but I am a bit disappointed about how many innovations they're shoehorning into the show and these characters. I loved how addicted the Clark girls were to Super Mario Brothers, that really took me back. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
