This is a type of show I like because you can watch one episode and enjoy it, but you can enjoy it so much more if you watch the series. I feel that this model of show is the best model for this generation. Many people have hectic schedules and are unable to commit to a show for more then a few episodes. This show model makes it accessible to everyone but more meaningful to those who can commit.
The reviews of 30 rock I found were a bit less organized then the ones I found for Community. I didn't particularly agree with the ones I found though. Many of them were a bit more critical and hard on the show then the ones I found for Community, this could explain the lack of enthusiasm towards formatting.
The first time I saw 30 Rock was on an airplane, this quickly made me skeptical but was even more quickly dismissed by how much I enjoyed it. I do have a big ole' celeb crush on Tina Fey though, so that kinda helped.
With both shows, before and after review reading, I would definitely start watching them. The reviews made it sound like i didn't watch the three good episodes of the bunch and the show is definitely worth watching.
It:s so funny, I watched 30 Rock on a plane too! Why did you think you didn:t watch the good episodes? Did you read reviews on episodes you didn:t watch?
ReplyDeleteI didn't think I watched the worst episodes. What I meant was, some shows are really bad and you might by accident watch the few good episodes and get the wrong impression. 3 is a relatively small sample size. I did read a couple on episodes I didn't watch, It was a bit hard to follow because I didn't watch the episode and the reviews were 100% spoiler alert.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's what I gathered from reviews for 30 Rock as well, like I was missing out on a better bunch of episodes. Oh well.
ReplyDeleteI agree that you said 30 Rock is less organized. I think the reason why it's not organized because it has to many season-long story lines. Every character has own story and experiences. Community seems like has new story and event in every episode and most of the problem happen in that group students. In this case, Community is well organized and it's easy for audiences to follow.
