Lost

This show was, at one point, the be all end all of primetime drama. You couldn't look away for a moment while it was on, (hope you took your pre-show bathroom break!), and if your jaw wasn't on the floor by the end of almost EVERY episode, you probably missed something. That being said, I think everyone knows the hamartia of this show was the final season. Ever notice how when shows are ending, reviewers say it could have a phenomenal finale, or it could go the way of Lost? There's a reason for that analogy. If you've never seen it, and you feel a harshly disappointing ending to a series will ruin the whole thing for you, (and I DO mean "HOLY CRAP, I WASTED 140 HOURS OF MY LIFE ON SOMETHING YOU SAW FIT TO JUST CRAP ON LIKE THAT FOR A FINALE!?!?), I'd recommend not watching the last season and making up your own ending. That's what I wish I'd done!

This show started out incredibly promising, my husband and I were really excited, but after the third episode, we're pretty much done with it. It gets harder and harder to maintain a positive opinion of Katherine Heigl's character, and once you start to dislike a main character, it's all downhill from there. I appreciate the whole 'girl power' thing they're trying to do on a political front, but it's just not working.

Initially watching this, I expected more of the same smutty, poorly written, and clumsily portrayed yuck that the CW has been putting out. I happily admit I was wrong. Jane the Virgin is cleverly written and is actually nearly as addicting as the actual telenovelas it has been modeled after! Looking forward to more of this show!

Absolutely fabulous show! It's smart, funny, dramatic, and addicting! Plus, season two had the most satisfying season finale I've ever seen on anything!

I really loved this show when it first came on, but after finding out that some of the kids on the first season were just there to pad an acting career, the show pretty much fell flat for me. I'm not sure if they changed their ways for season two, but I was really disappointed to hear about this whole debacle.

Greek is absolutely one of my favorite shows of all time. You can easily identify with the characters, the plot moves at a nice pace and the show is genuinely hilarious, yet tugs at your heartstrings when necessary. I would totally recommend to everyone!
