If you genuinely don't like something, that's your prerogative.

I think we just have this subclass of people in our society who simply dislike any show or movie that is too popular.

I fell into that trap a few times myself... notably after the first season of Game of Thrones I kept telling myself it sounded stupid.... then I watched it and loved it.

Idk why but there is some pseudo gag-reflex we get when too many people start going "OMG HAVE U SEEN BLAH? IT IS SOOOO GOOD"

There is this like auto-response counter culture that must exist for anything that is too popular.... you saw it on this board with the Blackhawks when they were winning Cups... you see it with people who go "I've never even watched Game of Thrones, it looks stupid".

If you are being contrary just because, that is where people get ironically annoyed with you.... if you watch a popular show and just don't like it... then to each their own.

PS: I felt this way about Breaking Bad when it aired... then I binge watched it once it completed and I still feel it is overrated.... it was a good show, but having watched the entire thing I will say I think it was overrated.

I always thought that most 2000s pop music sucked. Then someone told me to give it a chance and I only didn't like it because it was so popular. Then after hearing 101.9 for a few years, I found out it truly does suck. People have their heads up their asses.

Or... you just don't like that genre of music and other people do.

A few years back I was attacked by a pigeon in Chase plaza downtown.

Now I believe pigeons are part of a global banking conspiracy and I must kill all of them.

Ahhhh. Thank you. This makes complete sense.

Nah, I'm just sick of responding to the whole Tatiana Maslany bullshit that is so beyond worn out at this point. You guys are like bad comedians that reuse jokes show after show. Get some new material.

'Oh poor me, everyone is so mean to me, why must I endure such abuse, why will they never leave me and my Tatiana doll alone, WHY?'

Have you checked out you sig? It's her, if you want to move on so bad, change your fucking sig numbnuts.

Suck a **** old ****. Usually men your age are getting their affairs in order before they pass on but not you, being a ****** on a message board is your priority.

Look at you morons ganging up on someone because I'm not in your Westworld circle jerk. Grow up bozos and accept another person's opinion even if it differs from your own. Bunch of cucks is what you guys are.

Too much over reaction, it's just the internets.

Even your arch nemesis Spunky isn't all that serious when he makes fun of you for Buffalo Bob'ing women so you can wear their skin like you are Tatiana.

So, back to the original topic. I haven't watched any of this show. I was a fan of the movie with Yul Brynner, but the production values were low. In this updated version are there any sweet duds worth purchasing?
