@john-folan They hook us in with gripping story lines for season upon season then suddenly out of nowhere rip up that good storytelling for some sort of deep message instead of giving us a good dramatic ending. Loved every single one of those 3 and use them all as references when im working on videos and production, just feel cheated by the endings.

Yes and oh The Star Wars Sequel Trilogy. Some great characters. Some brilliant set pieces let down with crap story telling. Thankfully Disney + putting a lot right. “THE Bad Batch is brilliant

@martin-futter Kinda like a Game of Thrones situation then.

Will have to think about it before I start Lost then. Thanks for the heads up

I would never start Lost based on what I've read of the ending.

I watched them all. Bitterly disappointing. The trifecta. Lost, GOT, and LOD.

Only 4 seasons of 6 episodes so well easy to binge

@matt-wood still well worth watching, the characters and writing were ahead of their time.

It's actually rare for a series to end well, the best example I can think of is Breaking Bad which was just perfect in every way throughout and had a brilliant ending.

Seen Catastrophe? That was good.

No, Netflix? will add to the list

@matt-wood the show itself is in my opinion outstanding, the ending was so disappointing that is kind of ruins the memory of that.

@martin-futter said in Netflix/Amazon/Etc Recommendations:

@matt-wood at least the ending can't be as bad as Lost this way (who the main guy was from)

Is the ending to Lost that bad? I have never watched but have it on my list.

Yep I really enjoyed season 1 of colony then learned they had cancelled it without a proper finish so forgot it and didnt watch anymore.

Exactly what I would do haha!

I feckin HATE it when they do this kind of thing.

Cancel a show by all means, but give it a proper finish!

Trying “The Sons of Sam”. Nothing like seeing messed up Americans to maker feel like we don’t have it that bad.
