What's a good show? A good television show?

What's a good show? A good television show?

mom(anna faris is funny)
last man standing(tim allen=good)

friends(horrible actors, but a great script/director with many good puns),
seinfield(if you're feeling retro),

and some other cool shows
transparent(jeffrey tambor is funny, so its good),
arrested development(not good, but wacky stuff DO happen, and jason bateman=awesome, will arnett=cool).
(it also has jeffrey tambor, which makes it funny as well).

i dont know man, im just bored. what would YOU want from a good TV show?
some solid suggestions are:
saturday night live, the (to)night show, and any show that has good comedians in it.

What's a good show? A good television show?

Anne is pretty good. New CBC adaptation of Anne of Green Gables. Only a handful of episodes in so far so its an easy time to jump on.

I sometimes wonder how many of the significant people from my past are dead; especially the school teachers. Many of them were already pushing retirement age when I knew them. God I hope they are fucking dead.

man, i feel exactly the same for some shitty teachers that i used to have.
good teachers can help people to become better,
bad teachers can ruin school years/the learning process for everyone.

especially if they give you bad grades for the strangest of reasons: in one example,
i had an awful teacher who was never satisfied with anyone's writing of stories, no matter what: she always gave everyone low scores and most of the student's stories/answers were correct, with perfect grammar+good spelling.
so, she would give low scores for things such as ''having too many paragraphs, or a thick/detailed story''.
when ppl would write shorter stories, she would then change tactics, and she would demand larger stories. and if the story's ''length'' would be correct, she would find trivial things to stick to, and she would give F's to everyone, everytime, until the students/parents/fucking everyone complained to the headmasterand, and so, she finally stopped giving F's to everyone's papers....
....she gave D's.
what a fucking twat.
everyone from my school hates her, to this very day.

Well like I said it's a very small town, so there's only a manor of sorts. From what I gather it was built in the 17th century by Earl Rembrandt II (no relation), member of a rather obscure noble family called Van Paardenkuth tot Poepershoek.

The jewel in the crown of the museum is a (regionally) famous collection of nuts.
Nuts, which one of the granddaughters of the Earl, a Lady Nell, gathered from the nearby forest. She shaped these nuts into tiny figurines of owls. On Wednesday afternoons there are workshops, where you can bring your own nuts and give it a whack. If I get to live there, I'll sign up.

aha! interesting!
it seems that poepershoek is a quite charming, interesting little town.
thanks for the info, grey clock!

the tiny-chestnut owl figurines sound adorable.
also the chestnut owl-craft workshops sound very interesting.
PS: OK.
also, i know that rembrandt's full name was ''rembrandt van rijn'', so there's obviously no relation with the town's earl.

You know, on the internet the phrase "mind blown" gets thrown around a lot, but it doesn't even begin to cover this post. It's mind-shattering, mind-obliterating, it's a mind holocaust. Your post is the stuff aneurysms are made of. Are you fucking kidding me? When asked about good TV shows you saw it fit to mention both According to Jim and Arrested Development in the same post? Not only that, you felt the need to specify that Arrested Development didn't actually qualify for the "good" label? As opposed to According to Jim? According to fucking Jim? Different strokes for different folks and all that, but this is not a simple matter of taste, this is a symptom, either of some serious mental health issue or a brain tumor. Seek help immediately.

Case in point:

Well like I said it's a very small town, so there's only a manor of sorts. From what I gather it was built in the 17th century by Earl Rembrandt II (no relation), member of a rather obscure noble family called Van Paardenkuth tot Poepershoek. The last living heir died childless in the trenches of World War I, after a freak accident involving a leaky cannister of mustard gas and a German spy, after which ownership of the estate transferred to the State. These days the manor houses the family's (rather limited) art treasures and library, ranging from a number of rather unconvincing trompe-l'oeils, a cycle of obscene etchings with considerable water damage and the collected works of Emily Brontë. The jewel in the crown of the museum is a (regionally) famous collection of nuts. I'm talking chestnuts, acorns, walnuts and hazelnuts (no beechnut), which one of the granddaughters of the Earl, a Lady Nell, gathered from the nearby forest. She shaped these nuts into tiny figurines of owls. On Wednesday afternoons there are workshops, where you can bring your own nuts and give it a whack. If I get to live there, I'll sign up.

in my defense I have always imagined you living in a magical realm full of history and snark

no, this IS a simple matter of taste.
if i dont like ''scandal'' or ''game of thrones'', that doesnt make me a worse person, it simply shows my taste/my view on a specific show.

that is, if i, for example like potatoes and you hate potatoes, that doesnt make me an idiot, it simply shows us that i like potatoes and you dont.
its a simple matter of taste, and this thing exists in every aspect of life.

Is there anybody else who read my post and thought: "This seems legit"?

mang, why so serious?

i KNOW that ''poepershoek'' means ''shitters corner'' or ''poop corner'', because when you first told me of the ''poepershoek'' i immediatelly thought that ''Poeper''=poop in dutch, while i assumed that ''shoek'' meant shoe in dutch, but it actually means ''corner''.

as for poepershoek's history, it wasn't hard for me to believe it, because:
i googled it, and it had an interesting(yet small) story to say:
poepershoek is located in the region of steenwijkerland, whereas the whole region is included in the county of overijssel, which has an awesome red-yellow-and-green flag.
but i digress.
the point is, that the small town/settlement of poepershoek DOES have a historical house of a dutch nobleman, and it DOES have some small art festivals/folklore events, so it wasn't exactly a hard thing for me to believe...
the facts matched, and after my initial research, the story of the town sounded legit. (and it most likely is, except from your parts about the rembrandt-poepershoek bloodline, the WW1 demise of the duke and the chestnut-owl statues parts.)
the joke's on you, man. the town of poepershoek HAS a cool history, and an inteersting house/art festivals.

Is this your lame idea of a double bluff our are you in fact delusional? First off, get your google-translated wikipedia facts straight. Poepershoek is not a small town or settlement, it's a glorified neighborhood. Steenwijkerland is a municipality. Overijssel is a province. The flag is red-yellow-and-blue, you color-blind fuck. Time and time again we seem to arrive at this point, where you try and pass off the simplest shit out there as if it's the most groundbreaking piece of information ever dispersed. Shit that the person you're explaining it to in all likelyhood probably already knew. In this case, I did know, you want to know how you should've been able to tell? Because I was the one bringing it up in the first goddamn place. Did you think I grabbed a random name out of thin air that also happened to be an actual hole? As for the art and festivals you mention. You're talking about Sint Jansklooster right? Where did I mention a monastery, a flower parade and a yearly market? Research my ass. I made the whole goddamn thing up.

You got Poepershoek, but Paardenkuth means Horsecunt(h) and it's also the name of a character from a Dutch TV show for children.

Mustard gas and spies?
Unconvincing trompe-l'oeils?
Obscene etchings with "water" stains?
The collected works of Emily Brontë? Bitch wrote one novel.
Lady Nell who does shit in a forest?

Owl statues made out of assorted nuts? (Not beech.) Workshops?

You're really bad at researching and reading and watching television shows, you utter doorknob.

[RobClock]

I sometimes go to this Robins Doughnuts on my way to work rather than Tim Hortons since they are both on route but it's a total coin flip with that place. It's either the best cup of coffee I've ever had in my life, or a cup full of cream. A large coffee with one cream and one sugar should be easy as fuck, it's as basic as it gets outside of plain black.

It's this one bitch who's always working too, drives me insane.

[GreyClock]

You nibbled-down cheesedick.

[GreyClock]

You ill-fitting sock.

[BilliardBall10]

First off all, get your translated facts straight.
Poepershoek is not a small town or settlement, it's a glorified neighborhood.
Steenwijkerland is a municipality. Overijssel is a province.

a tiny town/a small settlement could also be described as a big neighborhood.
as for the municipality/province dispute, im sorry if i dont know how to correctly translate dutch county/regional expressions in english.
you dont have to be a dutchbag about it.

The holy flag of overijssel is red-yellow-and-blue, you color-blind fuck.

hahahaha! good one, grey!
well, i only saw the small overijssel flag pic, and i didnt bother to look at the larger resolutions,
so i thought that it was green in the middle.
OK, its red-yellow-and blue.

Did you think I grabbed a random name out of thin air that also happened to be an actual hole?

yes. you do have a wild, vivid imagination.
just look at your funny posts/your cool movies, and your latest fabrication, the ''features'' of poepershoek; everything was fake/a movie reference.
good stuff sir, good stuff, right there.

you can create bullshit out of thin air,
case and point:

I made the whole goddamn thing up.

^^^^^

As for the art and festivals you mention. You're talking about Sint Jansklooster right? Where did I mention a monastery, a flower parade and a yearly market?

no, im not talking just for the sint jansklooster festival... i've also discovered a few local art/music festivals that happen on/near the glorious town of poepershoek. but since art/music events happen in every town in the world, its not exactly impossible...

You got Poepershoek, but Paardenkuth means Horsecunt(h) and it's also the name of a character from a Dutch TV show for children.

this is so strange. WHO WOULD NAME A CHARACTER OF A CHILDRENS SHOW LIKE THAT?
i mean, if it would be an adult-standup comedy show, then ok, it would be funny, but should children watch a show with a guy named ''horsecunt''?
disturbing.
(if you're lying (yet again), then its not my fault, because im just expressing my disgust for people who use awful names for characters for children's shows on TV.)

Unconvincing trompe-l'oeils?

they could be unconvincing, if the artist sucks at drawing trompe-l'oeils....

Obscene etchings with "water" stains?

delaminations/grease marks on a metal surface could also be called ''water'' marks, due to their ''wavy'', water-like appearance.(even if the metal surface is resistant to acid chemicals).
so, those faults would be transferred into the print, as well.
again, i dont know anything about etching, so its not really my fault.
next!

The collected works of Emily Brontë? the woman wrote one novel.

well, to be fair, i thought that you was saying ''the collected works of XXX bronte'', (or the collected works of all the bronte sisters, since all of them where talented at writing.).

with that being said, i've never read ''withering heights'', and i only knew that the bronte sisters wrote many books+poems and that they were very talented in writing.
apart from that, i've never read any of the bronte sister's books, so its not my fault if i didnt get your literature hint.

Lady Nell who does shit in a forest?

i've never seen this movie.
it seems rather unpleasant.

im sorry that i dont watch the same movies like you do, or that i dont have similar tastes in movies/books/art with you, and im sorry that i dont know how to speak dutch.

settel downe, grey!11oneone

You're really bad at researching and reading and watching television shows, you utter doorknob.

i am an adorable doorknob.
its not my fault that you're lying to me, instead of being sincere about the glorious town of poepershoek, you bloody pinocchio.

now greyclock to be fair there are a lot of not especially impressive trompe-l'oiels out there and--

Obscene etchings with "water" stains?

i wouldn't be so surprised to hear of water damage to surviving copies of--

The collected works of Emily Brontë? Bitch wrote one novel.

Owl statues made out of assorted nuts? (Not beech.) Workshops?

no joke this sounded incredibly plausible people do shit like that and those people like owl figurines (and sometimes there isn't a good beechnut to carve)

according to jim is the gold standard for unambiguously atrocious tv sitcoms
greyclock is correct it is not a matter of taste there is no acceptable way to like that show

[RobClock]

I would assert that King of Queens is worse than According to Jim in the same way that being raped is better than having your dick chopped off

[BilliardBall10]

sexy update:

Owl statues made out of assorted nuts? (Not beech.) Workshops?

no joke this sounded incredibly plausible people do shit like that and those people like owl figurines (and sometimes there isn't a good beechnut to carve)

well, see?! ^^^^^

it does sound like a possible thing to do in a smal town.
in my lands, people create cool little statues out of wood, and some are even making little animals. (no owls tho, even tho that would be an awesome trend to start, (if possible), especially since athena's symbol was always the owl).

with that being said, lets talk about TV shows:

according to jim is the gold standard for unambiguously atrocious tv sitcoms.
greyclock is incorrect; it is not a matter of taste there is no acceptable way for someone to like that show

its a matter of taste.
some people hate cheesy sitcoms, other people hate violent historical series; its all a matter of taste.

well, i also happen to like:

-my name is earl(jason lee is awesome and VERY underrated).
-two and a half men(minus charlie sheen. everyone else in it=great)
-the simpsons
-the cosby show(its a funny show, despite the fact that ol' bill is evil, after all)
-rules of engagement(bear with me, the best part in it are the scenes where david spade is messing up with adhir kalyan's life, i personally find it very funny, its a funny boss-employee relationship.)
-last man standing(tim allen=win)
-married with children(come on, at least this one is funny).

aaand many more shows. i mostly like comedies.

with that being said, i will agree: king of queens is truly awful.
also: william H. macy's ''shameless'' seems to be awesome. should i watch it? macy is a good actor, so im sure that he will deliver a good performance either way.

lastly: suggest me ''good'' shows/sitcoms, clocken crew: i would like to see your tastes on TV.
help me to raise my culture!

(note; its all a matter of taste. except from ''LOST''. this show is awful. awful.)
