MVP RULZ Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 yeah American Horror Story is an awkward one to judge, technically they are different in that characters, setting is different but I'd still class them as one show as a fair few of the cast members are the same and they are season 1,2 and 3 etc, I can see the argument for splitting them but I'd say they are perfectly fine as one whole show CSI's are completely different shows though as mentioned I can see how though If your not fan of the shows it can be an easy mistake to assume there all the same, they are linked yes with a few crossovers etc but yes separate entries for each is 100% the way to go.
Paid Members Monkee Posted August 15, 2013 Paid Members Posted August 15, 2013 (edited) All fair points made on AHS. Also, just wanted to say thanks to LaGoosh for putting all this together. Not an easy feat, I'm sure, so I hope any sniping about 'should be higher' or 'you can't lump them together' or 'I don't agree with your synopsis' isn't taken as criticism or anything negative because I think this is my favourite thread in a while So thanks.

Paid Members LaGoosh Posted August 15, 2013 Author Paid Members Posted August 15, 2013 Cheers! It's been a lot of fun to do. I hope I'm not posting the results too fast though. Just I'm pissing off on holiday in 2 weeks and wanted to get it done and dusted before then.
Paid Members Monkee Posted August 15, 2013 Paid Members Posted August 15, 2013 Nah, I like the pace. At first I thought it was too slow but now I'm liking the discussion between each one. Top job!
patiirc Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Tinker Sailor Soldier Spy, very nearly made my list. It is fantastic from what I remember, though I've not seen it for nigh on 20 years, and cant really remember enough about it, to warrant it's inclusion. Or at least that's how the decision process played out Ive never got the CSI stuff, I've seen episodes of all of them, but nothing really stands out as being super fantastic or anything. Reading the discussion here, is there anything particular I should seek out from it aside from series 1?
Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted August 15, 2013 Awards Moderator Posted August 15, 2013 I don't know which season it was, but the Tarantino episodes of CSI Vegas were what hooked me, he did a two parter called 'Grave Danger' where a member of the team was buried alive and the rest of them had to find him before the air ran out. I'd say any Vegas season with what I'd consider the best core cast - Grissom, Catherine, Nick, Warwick, Sarah and Greg - are worth watching first. It all went downhill for me once they started leaving the show, and I lost interest once Grissom left to be replaced by Laurence Fishburne and then Ted Danson. They're both good actors but thy just aren't Grissom!
Paid Members LaGoosh Posted August 16, 2013 Author Paid Members Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) List now fixed with House as the new number 50. 34) "Dana, I have never cheated on my wife, not since she became my wife. But if you want to jerk me in the car now, I'm game." Entourage Voted number 1? No. What's it about? Inspired by the life of Mark Wahlberg, this HBO comedy-drama revolves around the friendships and Hollywood lifestyle of actor Vincent Chase and his childhood friends from Queens, New York. What do you say? "I feel for Entourage. Didn't know if to vote for it in the other list and i see people aren't sure if to vote for it in this one. Just a really funny and cool show. It became cameo city later on but i rewatch it all the time. For me it's the funniest show ever." Clips! 140 Ari Gold F-Bombs Edited August 16, 2013 by LaGoosh
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted August 16, 2013 Moderators Posted August 16, 2013 Yes! So glad Entourage made the list (although obviously I would have put it higher). Loved this show. It is well due a re-watch. One of my favourite Ari moments was when he went to the beach house and . Johnny Drama is an amazing character. I love the dynamics in the relationships between all the guys.. E and Ari is a particularly great one that shifts a lot throughout the series. Uh.. Turtle is a knob, but whatever. Favourite cameos? Jeffrey Tambor's recurring guest spot has to be up there for me. Matt Damon was amazing as well.. "He Jason Bourne'd me!"
Paid Members SiMania Posted August 16, 2013 Paid Members Posted August 16, 2013 Shit, I forgot about Entourage (I did a rushed list). I would've definitely included it.
Paid Members Dead Mike Posted August 16, 2013 Paid Members Posted August 16, 2013 Entourage would've definitely been in my top 5. Still think it's more of a comedy than a drama though.

They're both good actors but thy just aren't Grissom! that was the conclusion to Season 5 I believe. I stopped watching around Season 8 as it just became so formulaic.

Yeah, I already lost that argument in the Sitcom List though, so I had to put it in here! There's this guy in my new office that is such a Lloyd. His walk and his mannerisms are so bang on. Also, I recommend to anyone nicknaming one of your mates Lloyd because it's really fun to shout in an Ari Gold voice.
The Cum Doctor Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 American Horror Story isn't even remotely awkward to judge as far as being the one show goes. Unless you also want to count every episode of The Twilight Zone as being different shows as well.
d-d-d-dAz Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Where would The Thick Of It all? Because seasons 3 and 4 of that are super dramatic.
