Nah I more meant a gang of people hopped on the bandwagon, and ultimately went overboard, because it was the "in" thing to do. "Homeland" is the "in" show now because of the Emmys. A year ago nobody gave a fukk about it, now it's top 5 and has the GOAT first season. People are crazy man.

That's all I'm trying to say breh

Check the thread on SOHH, I fukks with Homeland but no one was really talking about it like that back on SOHH.

Dudes had multiples threads for just one character on Breaking Bad as far as SOHH is concerned.

WTF...we got a Smug Draper smilie...we had EPIC Breaking Bad Sunday threads with damn near a gig worth of gifs

But Homeland is champ now? Come on :beli:

Sure, if you're a moron.

Homeland is just okay to me..u homo
I aint see none of u fakkits praising this show while it was still airing..but u coming outta woodworks after the Emmy's?

They couldnt find a better actress[in looks and talent] to play the lead?
:what:
old man from Criminal Minds is doing a much better job than that c*nt
bytch is a C-list actress at best

and that whole bipolar angle is just crap to me

24/Sleeper Cell/Spooks>>>Homeland

First, it's airing right now. Second, I've been on this show....I don't much care about anyone else. I definitely don't care about Emmys.

........why?

24/Sleeper Cell/Spooks>>>Homeland

24 was entertaining.....but I've never put any thought into the story after watching it. I know it's not really fair to compare a network show to one on cable, but....the differences are stark.

Second season just started u idiot..

U think they got the Emmy's for what they are doing on season 2?

Nobody was talking bout this show being GOAT during and after season 1..
You're giving it GOAT status off the strength of season 2 episodes?

:rudy:

U like the show?cool..me too..but lets stop all this "best" show on tv nonsense

And imo ol girl is not very talented/good looking..
I was cringing in most if not all of her 'emotional' scenes..

Homeland Season 1 had 434 posts on the old site

First season of Breaking Bad, 34

Breaking Bad...Series Premiere on AMC...Post Your Thoughts... - ProjectCOVO.com Global Forum

Second Season, 147

Breaking Bad Season 2(who's watching) - ProjectCOVO.com Global Forum

Season three, 204

Breaking Bad Season 3 Starts March 21 - ProjectCOVO.com Global Forum

Season 4, 2179

FINALLY It's Back{7/17}!!!!!Breaking Bad Season 4 Thread - ProjectCOVO.com Global Forum

And you had random threads comparing it to other shows.

Fifth season of Mad Men had 676.

Draper Season Has Returned: Official Mad Men Season 5 Thread - ProjectCOVO.com Global Forum

Sure a show gets a bigger thread as it goes on, more people hear about it, decide to check it out

The idea that no one gave a fukk about Homeland until the Emmys is ridiculous. People in that thread were singing its praises and the acting in that thread.

Alot of people, like me didn't watch Homeland till the season was over. Like who the fukk watches the first season of a tv show unless it's heavily promoted or has some creator of a former great show behind it?

I got into the show at the very beginning of the year and have been singing it's praises since.

What this show did in one season not just with foreign affairs but interpersonal relationships and the human psyche is something I've never seen on tv before.

Yeah Walter White went from good to bad, yeah Don Draper is cool on the outside and troubled on the inside, yeah Boardwalk Empire is very Shakespearean, yeah Game of Thrones has one of the GOAT plots. But it's Carrie and Brody over everything right now.

Get down or lay down :birdman:

Some of y'all don't realize nobody takes your opinions on certain shows seriously based on the clear biases you have don't you? nikkas will do Mr. Fantastic levels of reaching to discredit any show getting love that isn't their favorite. We're basing the quality of a show or if it deserves to be called the best show on television on the length of a fukking thread, gifs, and nikkas talking about it on a forum? How hard is it to discuss the fukking merits of what's going on on screen? It's always the same nikkas with these type of arguments against every show too. Homeland was one season in and a lot of cats never heard of it until it started getting the Emmy buzz. I'm one of them. It wasn't until people watched the first season and have been watching the current season that they heaped any praise on the show. I didn't see the show get mad Emmys and automatically say it's the best show on TV. I don't even think it's the best show on TV, but I would agree season 1 is better than most seasons of any show currently on.

Yes, I agree with the premise of the thread. Homeland isn't better than the three shows you listed. But when cats are saying it's the best show on TV they're talking about the present since it obviously can't compare with shows that have three or four season head starts. Cats aren't putting Homeland on a Wire or Sopranos level, it's just purely a right now thing.

And my main point is that the very existence of the thread is ridiculous and the arguments being made against Homeland are ridiculous. Breaking Bad stans will be the first to say they don't care about awards (besides when Cranston is winning Best Actor every year) but want to hate on a show winning an award?:what: And the method of hate is based on thread counts and popularity?:what: God forbid nikkas judged anything on its own merits.

(minus the awards :youngsabo:)
