I really like televisionwithoutpity, but people who post that should be dragged out into the street and shot. First, they aren't watching it a "few more times", "a couple of times", etc. Nobody has that kind of time. Believe me, I should know. And, even if you WERE going to watch it that many times, why are you rushing to the computer to type that? just watch it again!

this all stems from my viewing of John From Cinncinati, which may be the worst television show in the history of time. After watching last week's episode, i rushed to the computer to figure out what just happened. What i got was three pages of "wow, that was incredible. i don't get it, but i'll need to watch it a few more times".

There's a difference between deep and confusing. At the end of the day, television (or any kind of art) is a form of communication. If the audience doesn't get the message, then you are doing a poor job in creating the art.

This show is becoming like a fanboy type of thing where the only people who are enjoying it are the ones who have the decoder ring and think they are "special" for putting the effort into translating.
