Seven years later and I’m still re-watching episodes of the show hoping I stumble on one I haven’t seen.
I rewatch them whenever I remember that I've forgotten them. It's like they're all new again! ... :(
Ifn yalls willin to pay, then im sure willin to give yall some of this here content you damn well might not know about
@@KuueenKumi me too
Saem dude
9 years later, still doing the same 🤣
Those title cards is why I come back to re-watch this episode every 3 months.
See you in a month man.
Lol, White People is my favorite.
Maxime Boileau welcome back
Hey there! :)
Only 3 months!?
The 8 shows:
Sympathetic anti-hero/anti-villain
Rich white people problems
Dysfunctional cast
Quirky charming guy with a twist
Aggressive, Inescapable good guy
Bad boys that are right all the time and a holes
Comedies few people see
The Wire
Eh. Fargo perfectly fit with the description they had of The Wire. And the new show Preacher on AMC seems pretty similar too.
what would deathnote be? or the walking dead?
oh and orange is the new black
helloo helloo I think the description for The Wire works for that show.
The Walking Dead would be The Wire, and Death Note's protagonist is an anti-hero who kills people, so I think that's pretty self explanitory.
Daniel (as always) shows incredible knowledge of even the most obscure sides of pop culture.
15 seconds pass.
"Dan isn´t an expert at anything".
i agree hes a tv expert.
Because he;s an expert in everything...
Very very very true. Daniel is unappreciated. He's a 1/4th of the reason I watch After Hours.
Kabitu1 pretty sure hes a pop culture nerd of all genres but the the master of none
I love hearing Katie say HBO isn't going to "listen to some internet comedy dicks" now that we know that one of these four people went on to write for a multi-Emmy-winning HBO show.
Who was it?
@@360FireFallen Dan O'Brien works on HBO's Last Week Tonight.
@@billyweed835 Ahh, the sexy friend got his time to shine
@@afterdinnercreations936 you have refined taste
Soren went to work on American Dad, and while that's kinda eh at times, its nothing to scoff at
I like how whenever Michael brings up a topic, everyone always ends up agreeing with him.
I love Michael. In a way, I feel like he's the smartest one of all of them.
I totally agree with that. It is an extremely bizarre yet intensely focused kind of smartness!
+ZeldaFan217 You know you can edit comments, right? You don't need to make three separate comments
How about a show about World War II, and it would start with a certain soldier and follow him through his pains and greifs of fighting in the war, but then, a plot twist five or so episodes in. He dies. And a new character on another side of the war (Russian, British, German, Japanese, or any of the other countries that fought in WWII) would be the new main character, and it would show the war from their point of view. Sometimes the character would live and get sent home sometimes to wait out the war because he did enough or something. It could show the hardships of being a U-boat first mate, or a soldier on the front lines, or a soldier that flew in a plane. Every episode would be thrilling because you wouldn't know if the guy died or not. It would be hard in the fact that you would need historical accuracy for it to be good, and you would have to make the character likeable, and someone you would want to see survive the war. But maybe every now and then, there is someone you just hate because they had been changed by the war so much, that they lost all of their humanity. And sometimes their stories could cross together, with a German commander shown killing a previous character. Every episode the war would progress, and it could be shown somehow maybe in the beginning of each episode? I would really like to see a show like this with four or five seasons in it, and not to be carried out to long. And maybe a memorial at the end of each season for soldiers that had fought for their countries in WWII. I think if it was historically accurate, had likable characters, and correctly showed what it was like in WWII, I think everyone would love to watch it.
TL;DR I want a show about WWII that has a different main character every few episodes. Some of the main characters can die, or sometimes live, and some of the main characters are on different sides of the war (Russia, Germany, Britain, etc.). It should be historically accurate, have likeable characters, but not be carried on for too long (with only 4 or 5 seasons).
I actually think that would be a good idea. By changing the main character every so often you can keep the story moving in different directions as they center around a new main character and it would get very difficult to get stock in a dead end story line.
OK - I'm stealing this. It would be very expensive to make however. I like the seasonal aspects to each character. Sort of like American Horror Story or True Detective. Nice.
I also like that you used your real whole name, that way I can have the lawyers ready and know which numbers to block. Welcome to Hollywood, kiddo. ;)
ered203 Make sure to put me in the "special thanks" portion of the credits when you make the show XD
I would buy the dvd box set of that.
I really want to hear the other seven versions of
Dinosaur Detective.
ILuvKonata DinoSORE Detective--a detective, who's also a dinosaur, with a sore back.
ILuvKonata DINEosaur Detective - A detective investigating dinosaur deaths by food poisoning.
ILuvKonata Dinosaur Detective: It has become common to clone dinosaurs and our main character is the head of the dinosaur-related crimes department.
Dinosaur Detective: It's like the show Dinosaurs where in dinosaur times dinosaurs are smart and live like people, except we're looking at a detective in that world.
Dinosaur Detective: Our detective protagonist is so old and old-fashioned that everyone calls him a dinosaur, but his old school techniques show up those lab nerds as often as not.
Dinosaur Detective: A National Geographic show where a scientist looks at various dinosaur remains and tries to figure out how they died.
I could keep going but that's enough
Well, we got six! Who shall supply that final Seventh one? =O
ILuvKonata Dinosaur Detective: a show in which the main character is a drugs cases Detective, fighting both family problems and the mysterious new hot drug sweeping the nation into cases of believing themselves to be cannibalistic, known simply as Tyrannosaur.
Dexter: Quirky, family man working as a blood splatter analyst in a police department who, TWIST, is a serial killer.
Loved Dexter, right up until the last episode, similar to Lost series and the last 2 episodes... Best TV series ending i've ever seen, Battlestar Galactica reboot. Without knowing a thing about the original series or how any of it played out, i was completely mind blown at how they chose to conclude it, 10/10.
I am stupidly proud of how quickly I picked up that they were talking about The Wire in that last bit. And I do mean stupidly.
Buffoon1980 Egads. So am I. And I see we look alike as well. Creepy.
Ha, clearly you, too, are a man of taste, distinction and stunning good looks!
Buffoon1980 Their description of The Wire bears uncanny similarity to Orange is the New Black
Nigel Foster-Jones Could just as easily say they were talking about the Walking Dead, too.
Jonathan Martin Except, interesting instead.
At 4:49 to 4:54 it's Lin Manuel Miranda from Hamilton I didn't know that until now
Me neither!!
that's what I said.
Julianna Kopa k
Alex Ramirez omg I see it now
I was gonna say something about this.
at the end I thought they would come up with Community.
It fits with all the conditions
+Mark Lester Celozar (Marcus Leicester) oohh... yes. you're right.
+TheBlackDoor #AndAMovie :(
So does "American Horror Story"; especially the part about changing up the location all the time.
@@PaperbackWizard Also Black Mirror and even Scream Queens to a degree. So I guess any horror anthology
They could've come up with Fargo the show, too.
I thought it was going to end with them realizing that After Hours is the prefect different show. It's not really a protagonist or villain but just friends talking about what they loved and once and a while talk about something outside a diner.
wouldn't be very long though unless you want to drag on the debate for 20 minutes. to do that you'll probably have to script in some extra dialogue. which would ruin the realism of this show which is just 4 guys giving their honest opinion on a subject. not actors saying whatever directors say they should say. terrible idea
NoForksGiven I didn't say I wanted this to be a 20 minute tv series I just said I thought that was how it was going to end.
thetickrules Or the majority of shows that are on G4 (or at least, used to be on G4. I'm not sure what that channel is like now, it's been a while.)
They got to it when they chanted "White People!".
thetickrules
I was just thinking that!!! :D
This is the smartest RUclips show ever. Been 5-6 years they recorded their last episode, and still, this one show rules. Wish them the best, wherever these guys are, whatever these guys are doing
Dan is a writer on Last Week Tonight on HBO. Soren works on American Dad. Michael has a podcast. Katie was a producer for a show on Quibi til they shut down but I think she's working as an artist now.
If you’re interested in more Swaim, his RUclips channel is called SmallBeans. Occasionally, people from Cracked come on and guest star on their various podcasts.
@@JITCompilation thanks a lot, dude. I will subscribe to it right away. Thanks again
@@donnadelgado8164 thanks a lot for sharing the information. I knew about Dan but no one else. I am glad that all of them are doing well. Thanks again.
@KunalKMehta08 daniel and soren have a podcast called quick question, been going on for a while but theyre doing filmed episodes on youtube now. Also swaims small beans have alot of great podcasts
Pretty sure TheGoodPlace has all the trope breaking attributes they were listing at the end. Phenomenal show.
White People
Oh, you're totally right though!
Lame
The Good Place and The Wire…basically the same.
It does have a main protagonists though
1:57 it's called the "Pretty White Kids with Problems" genre
+Michael Cutler MADTV did an excellent parody on their show about that, lol.
+belias360 And thanks to the internet, you can watch the skit on youtube.
+Michael Cutler And all four examples of that kind of show were produced by HBO.
When I saw Die Hard as a kid on tv the phrase was, "Yippie Kai yay Mr Falcon."
"I HAVE HAD IT WITH THESE MR FALCON SNAKES ON THIS MR FALCON PLANE"
+David Butt
Surprise Mr Falcon!
Your Dad I believe it is “monkey-fighting snakes on this Monday to Friday plane”.
For me it was "Yippie Kai yay Mother lover"
Isn't Game of Thrones about rich white people in a fantasy world with problems no real-person would have?
The south have incest problem
Well there is the constantly getting killed thing.
+OrdinaryGuy571 I guess African Americans can also kinda relate to that?
As a note, because tone doesn't convey easily via text - my implication was an attack on a culture enabling that phenomena.
+Awesomeness Continued In Braavos you have people of colour (Grey Worm, Missandei)
Twilord Well, there's also the struggle for power which we all face in one form or another. All I'm saying is the show isn't exactly "Friends."
what we need is some kind of genre breaking space western with comedy charecters where the real protagonist we care about is their ship. Maybe they could pick up a couple of wanted fugitives from the evil space nazis. That would be shiny.
Star Wars?
Firefly?
Lexx
Cowboy Bebop?
+Nova Sky there three names here i support the return of, star wars is not one of them..but i am a fan of there anime series.
"Theodore Rex" was about a dinosaur detective. Shit, everything has been done!
Shawn Ravenfire or alternate, clone version of teddy Roosevelt sent to fight crime.
All the variations of 'Vagina Whisperer' had me laughing so much. xD
Then u have a terrible sense of humor lol that stuff was so dumb :/
I'm I the only one who thinks Dinosaur Detective sounds kind of awesome in a chessy kind of way?
You are not alone
+Definitely Catherine I would watch Dinosaur Detective
+Definitely Catherine they had a movie like that with whoopi and it was terrible. lol
+Definitely Catherine which one?
+Zack Wheelhouse (popscotch112) the one where the human detective who goes back in time who goes back in time to solve dinosaur times solving dinosaur crimes.
"Did we just make The Wire?"
And that's when I lost it.
Am I the only one that would watch "Sue me B****!"?
Can a network pick up "Hippy by Day" for a pilot?
And cast ricky martin as the main character
ABC would pick it up, in a heartbeat. or the SyFy network.
This is the one I actually want to watch.
When they described The Wire i thought they were describing LOST
I was getting Orange is the New Black, except that it's an old video so it couldn't be, but HA! They're right.
lol so true, especially the part where they say that they're gonna pick a cast from different races and stuff
I thought they were talking about American Horror Story.
I thought it was OZ
Wendla Bergman is it weird that of the five shows mentioned, two are prison shows and another essentially is (the whole Lost purgatory thing)?
Here's a concept that might work: the world after a Dr. Horrible type supervillain wins. It would be about his and the world's experiences as he discovers that conquering the world is the easy part. He would mostly make things better, but sometimes really screw up, and have all the usual card-carrying villain things (brutal dissent crackdowns, shark tanks, evil laughter, etc.) sometimes serious and dark and sometimes played for comedy. Throw in a romance arc (because what woman would turn down being queen of the world?) and you've got a show. (Actually, regarding the last sentence's parenthetical - why not make it a woman who does all this? She'd be motivated by the mistreatment of women the world over and stopping it.) The pilot would be the classic "villain downfall" scene, except the superhero gets killed instead of the villain and is never mentioned again, followed by "villain" and world realizing he/she has won.
That sounds awesome. I'd fund that if the villain was actually Dr. Horrible. NPH is the man
Sounds like that animated movie from awhile back Megamind
Mmm Ghool
It's a similar idea, but different, mainly in the motivations of the respective "villains".
+William Brennan Megamind. That's Megamind.
+William Brennan What if Dr. Horrible was gay/lesbian as a plot twist?
They kinda described Sense8.
Sense8 reminded me of Heroes.
and lost
+Keith Barrett I was thinking Oz since it was really the first "ground breaking" TV show HBO did.
Never watched Oz. There was a rape scene in the title credits, and I said, "no thank you".
+Keith Barrett THANK YOU!!
i'd watch dinosaur detective
there is a series of novels about a velociraptor detective called anonymus rex
Dr Who has the next best thing: a lizard woman from the dawn of time who solves crimes.
@jrpipik AND she's also the original inspiration for Sherlock Holmes! AND she's a lesbian!
JEEEEZ Doctor Who is weird!
Mallika Banerjee I’d watch Hippy by Day.
Which one?
Honestly, what would make for a good tv is honestly, *The Purge*. Instead of it bein another boring, typical slasher and shooting flick, it could have been a tv show of countless people from all different walks of life from priests, drug dealers, business mangers, politicians, doctors, racists, petty thieves, mass murders, rapists, and of course the good people who don't even want to cause crime, all dealing with and acting out their lives during that 12 hour period where nearly everything is legal. That would make for an amazing and incredibly dark tv show depending on the perspective of the people we're watching. Talk about a wasted idea.
I would watch a show about the four of you discussing pop culture for hours.
I agree. I could keep watching it, even After Hours have gone by.
*PAIN*
reboot of "The Twilight Zone" in the light of modern worlds problems.
good sci-fi is whats really missing on tv.
Black Mirror.
Good AMERICAN Sci-Fi.
#murica
***** there was a twilight zone reboot with Forest Whitaker as the host
I heard Freddie Wong's next project was supposed to be a "Twilight Zone" style take on modern life.
eight years later this is still my favorite and most memorable episode of after hours
Hippie by day, Ricky Martin!
How about "Dinosaur Whisperer"! It's about a man who can communicate with dinosaurs to fight against evil dinosaurs and.... DAMN CHRIS PRATT!!!!!
" a time period HBO hasn't used like the future or the civil war" you guys called Westworld four years before it came out
"Yeah but Fox has a hard time canceling their shows too early. They either cancel good shows too early"
You have no idea how much I thought of Raising Hope and the Mindy Project. I know there are other ones I could list but ah well.
The Bunny You win for being the first person to mention shows with female protagonists who aren't shallow, boring, brain-dead morons.
The Bunny Yeah, I liked Terra Nova. But they spent so much on the per episode budget. There was no way that show was going anywhere. Even though it had such a high budget it was incredibly cheesy. But the characters were likable imo.
+TONY SETTLES Terra Nova was Dinosaur Detective.
Kwitzats I thought it was Jurassic Housewives.
Bring back Firefly!!!!
The one thing Fox ever did right was Fringe. That was awesome.
Jasmine Ward YES! And picking up Sons of Anarchy.
+Luke Marchant Fox's problem is, they don't know how to handle their shows.
+Jasmine Ward Yeah...Married with Children never existed.
+Sherlock Hooves I'll agree with that, Fringe just left me bored after awhile.
same
"Different people- people on different sides of the law, people that cross the socio-economic spectrum. And they're all in the same place, stuck together, and they're learning, without even realizing it, that although they're very different, deep down inside they're just the same!"
"Is it- did we just make- GILLIGAN'S ISLAND?"
Yes!!!
I personally subscribe to the theory that there is no such thing as an original idea. Everything was based on or inspired by other things and taken one step further. TV has been recycling plots since the beginning. Each new generation grows up without knowledge of the past so the recycled things appear to be new, but really it's only new to that generation. It's just been given a face lift or reupholstered. And before that, TV took from books which took from real life, and now every medium steals from others. I love poking fun at American television, but it's not as white washed- actually no it is. Even if the main cast is intentionally diverse, background characters are all white. It could just be that the pool of actors available to pick from are mostly white rather than institutional discrimination. Something that a lot of people forget is that 3.5 of the seven continents consists of white people. Did you know that a lot of American TV actors are actually Australian or British in origin? I watch Paley fest interviews and there they are talking in all their accented glory. There are also a lot of ethnic people on America's A-list of movie stars. In any case, I don't fault the US for having mostly white actors. It is a white people country (or was originally anyway). Do we accuse Koreans for not having more Japanese in their dramas or vice versa? No. Should we bash Bollywood for not incorporating more Pakistanis? Absurd. The race of the protagonist for most visual media will always be the dominant race of the country. In addition, if you really want to experience diversity, watch foreign films. That's a real breath of fresh air. I warn you though, Korean dramas don't just tug at your heartstrings, they break them.
haha you had me until Korean dramas. every protagonist whether male or female has lost their memory from a car accident lol
Hahaha so true!!!
Again I'm going to refer you to Black mirror which I can tell you was an original plot(s). It's British but you might be able to get it repeating on a American channel
I actually was given a chart like that in college where we were given the six or seven basic story lines and were challenged to find a story that didn't, at it's core, fit one and match tv shows, book, and movies that we liked that did. Needless to say, no one could find one that differed because there really are so many ways a story can be told. The characters may differ along with the events, but strip it all away to the basics and they will all fall into a few different categories.
No matter what idea you come up with... the Simpsons already did it...
Their last idea for a TV show sounds like American Horror Story too and that's an awesome show
Im so glad I wasn't the only one!
lol I was like umm American Horror Story, but then I realized this was written around season one of AHS.
LOL spot on!
***** Yeah and the second season probably had just either started or season ended (hence around). And it still wouldn't apply because most people didn't know AHS wasn't a continuation story during the second season.
I thought of AHS as well, but then I remembered that the Cracked writers wanted there to be few to no white people in their show. I'm having trouble recalling any non-white characters in AHS.
2024 here. Circling around again and refinding that a lot of my favorite online personalities were once here. I'm glad these are still around and have not been deleted.
Someone should archive this before it goes the way of Machinima or 2000's programming.
what about a sitcom show about a bunch of white people hanging out and getting into mischief every week?
...wait...
Maddie Wilson With absolutely no legal or larger social repurcussions...
whoa, genius :O
Maddie Wilson What about a show about black people dealing with everyday problems of the middle class... No wait...
+Drace90 That's the Cosby show.
Esteban Rincon
One of those. Right guess.
The wire sounds a lot like lost the way they described it .-.
Nah Jack is kind of the clear main character in that
Bruce Wayne Agreed. Though the description of what made the Wire great and why it stands apart is very similar to Lost. Then TV just started making Lost with domes, or Lost with worldwide power outages, or Lost meets Jurassic Park, or Lost but only everyone is a superhero, or "ahhhh screw it just the guy that played Locke and people will watch" WOOPS, GUESS NOT!
it sound like they were describing heros till they said linked by a place.
they made the dome or whatever that crappy show is
Near the end I thought it was breakfast club. Iv never seen it but the way poeple described it to me that's what I thought
Actually both versions of the Dinosaur Detective have already been done. The short lived Fox show Terra Nova had Jason O'Mara as a detective who time travels to the Cretaceous period to solve dinosaur crimes. While the 90's movie Theodore Rex had a dinosaur detective teaming up with Whoopi Goldberg, (she tried everything to get out of making that movie,) to solve future crimes.
😆🤣 👍
Micheal: let’s pitch HBO a show in a time period they haven’t used yet, the future, the civil war... wait did Michael write west world?
How's about a show where the main protagonist isn't the central character? The main protagonist is just a member of the leader's entourage, like the jack-of-all trades, the secondary chick, or the strong/supposedly dumb guy. They have some things happen to them, of course; their parents or partner die, they get kidnapped, and so on. However, the show proceeds like it would if it was focused on the central character; all the stuff that usually happens to protagonists happen to the central character, not the protagonist.
***** Thanks; I read it in a book once.
***** That's what happens. There's nothing new under the sun, only various iterations of things.
You do understand that part of the definition of the word 'protagonist' is that there the lead character?
Bruce Wayne I mean that the 'hero' of the show isn't the 'hero' in-universe. For example, in a fantasy universe, we would be following the archer, say, rather than the hero or chosen one who initiated the quest.
***** That I understand, but then that guy would still be the protagonist
I love how much fun they had with the blurbs at the bottom. That's like 65% of the enjoyment of this one.

Six years later and I still want everyone of their ideas to get made.
I thought they were describing The Good Place. Now I want to watch the Wire.
I also thought this.
How about a show that follows someone with depression. It goes through the number of stages, struggling with identifying the problem along with other people saying to simply be more happier, to suicidal thoughts, and struggles the protagonist will have with their family and friends, dating and the trying the number of therapies the protagonist will go through. It'll be more ironic to make it into s sitcom, like pushing daisies
Amanda A Reminds me of the Anime "Welcome to the NHK" about a guy suffering from heavy social anxiety; trapping himself in his apartment for months on end being too afraid to go out. Not the same as depression although he does suffer from it because of his condition.
Detective Dinosaur: a Kid's show about a Dinosaur who solves relatively simple mysteries. In other words, Blue's Clues with a dinosaur wearing tweed.
Can you really call Walter White an anti-hero? Be the 3rd to 4th season I'd say he is more like a villain in disguise.
Homeless people traveling the nations highways looking for the best hand-outs; ensemble cast that is disposable, scenes change as needed(where ever filming is cheap or the producers what to hang for a while) and people singing are outcast along with teen-ages. You could call it "The Gutter-Snipes" or the "Lost Ones" or "Between the Cracks", which is a nice double entendre(sp) to bring up drugs and off-camera weirdness.
isnt that just storage wars???
Hmm? kinda maybe.
It's weird, the term "Guttersnipe" actually pre-dates the use of the term "Sniper" but today people would think Guttersnipe was about some really gritty snipers.
Starting at 4:35 - She says Heroes was on Fox but I believe that was on NBC.
I have an idea for a tv show about time traveling kids. The twist is that at the end of every episode, one of the kids has to stay in the past, to watch over the timeline.
The title cards make this definitely my favorite episode of this show, so hilarious
Sounds like American Horror Story...
well they said no teenagers so that eliminates the first season
Piss...... First time seeing this, and I LITERALLY thought the exact same thing
+The ComparisonChannel Lost is complete nonsense, it's mind boggling that it became so popular. Decent character development, but the plot makes no sense, obviously a seat-of-their-pants production.
White ppl and angsty teenagers and severe lack of common sense
+KTMWTF I'd argue that Black Mirror might be more of a fit.
I miss these guys and gal.
hahahaha. this almost makes me feel like I have friends
I love the little pop ups on the bottom. Those are pretty amazing.
8 years later... still amazing.
HIPPIE BY DAY RICKY MARTIN!
I don't think I've ever seen The Wire cuz when people try to explain it to me and say how it's not like any other show I've ever seen, they end up kinda describing every other show I've ever seen. So.
+Zachs Mind it was acutaly a decent crime show that told was told from both the rising star drug dealer and a rising cop, sure the cast expands to the point its from lower gangbangers and street cops then Judges and lawyers then politicans, best way to put it a weird semi game of thrones experince but instead of seven kingdoms its seven city blocks and they tax the serf..i mean drugdealers for protection and supplies to push wheat..i mean drugs.
These videos may have stopped years ago but I still put on a playlist of all of them, and fall asleep to them every night
Hippie by Day Ricky Martin
Is that real?
nope thats the censored version
If you really want to laugh just watch Scarface on regular tv. It's absolutely hilarious
NNamdi he meant is it real that USA changes the catchphrase to that, duh
Starring Ricky Martin as "The Hippie".
I did see a version on TV where he says "Yippie Kai Aye Mother lover." True story!
Soren said "UPN" and got no response to it. Lmaoooo
The first time I watched this, with the part at the end, I was almost positive it was going to be Sesame Street, which (mostly) fits
I was thinking lost
+Gordon McNulty I thought it was going to MTV's Real World. lulz
That rap moment was an isolated incident. The insane asylum House arc was a masterpiece. Breaking up with Cuddy song episode was a crime against god and a cowardly backpeddle, but the show was still fantastic to the end.
Before that stumble, EVERY episode was a masterpiece. Last season was the worst but the bar was so high that it was still really good
I don't know enough about House to have an opinion one way or the other, but I appreciate your impassioned defense of it.
I really enjoy the After Hours bits.
Good boy
1:53 this basically sums up two of their most popular shows in the last few years: Succession and White Lotus.
"A strong, male, anti-hero's journey to redemption." That is the exact opposite of Walter White.
Dudes, your channel is like college humor, but yours is smart, and humorous.
As if they went to some sort of college. For... humor.
When they were pitching The Wire i kept imagining Community. Just me?
Is that what The Wire is about? I thought they were describing American Horror Story, lol
I hated the first season of American Horror Story...does it get any better than that?
Ben Salinas
The second season is actually much better, in my opinion. Less focus on the supernatural and more on character development, plus a much more cohesive storyline.
phantommangagirl I so thought it was AHS also.
I like the premise of AHS, but yes the Wire definitely did that first. They shifted the entire focus of the show overtly four times clearly. Also AHS is entertaining but is no where to close to the quality of the Wire.
I'd like to see how they'd describe Hannibal. He's not the anti-hero looking for redemption because he's PURE FUCKING EVIL and NOT looking for redemption at all. It's partially a procedural like some of the CBS shows but instead of drug dealers and pedo's, it's different serial killers, but there's also a main overall story, this cat and mouse thing (and also kind of a weird bromance thing) between Will and Hannibal. And Will does actually care for Hannibal and in many ways doesn't want to really catch him.. so he's far from your usual protagonist too.
Quirky, charming guy with a twist [eats human livers]
Came back after all this time to point out that Action Hospital was sort of actually made in the form of a new Netflix show called Medical Police
What about a TV show with people who have super powers, but are terrified of them. Like a guy who has the power to fly, but is afraid of heights.
they'd probably already have it if you looked hard enough
Its called Heroes
stephon johnson wow, Jesus Christ they have everything.
stephon johnson Never thought of that, but you're right. Pretty much everyone in that show is afraid of their powers. Except for Sylar, of course, and he just makes everyone who knows about him even more afraid of their powers.
Smallville
this is what happens when you find a stranger in the alps
I’m hurt and offended that RUclips apparently peaked 10 years ago
So, the hero is either a quirky, or not quirky hero, or an antihero who either does or doesn't find redemption. They face problems that are either too problematic or not problematic enough, surrounded by characters that are similar to them or not similar to them. Or it's a comedy and they all end either before they should, at the right time, or they go on too long. Man, all shows are totally the same.
Get these guys to cameo in Sunny in Philadelphia!! Ah, a guy can dream
+ed cap That would be a great episode!
Btw, I don't mean to be "that" guy, but where is your profile pic from? I've searched all over and can't figure out where you got it from.
+whiplash779 Anime called Aquarion Evol. Character name is Mix.
Hey, where's the character in your profile pic from? It looks weirdly familiar
This video show Randomly today, boy the good old days of early YT content. These guys were awesome.
Anyone missing this series, watch Michael's reboot called off hours
Ahaha! I was thinking The Wire even before it was shown at the end. Best tv show I've ever seen!
That sounds a little bit like Community
Their description of the Wire could also have been Orange is the New Black.
So we will never get anything better than the Wire?
Doctor Who. Granted it's not American, but still.
mindstormmaster quirky doctor who is an all powerful time lord….
Who-- twist-- is a new actor every few years.
THANK YOU! Someone else was thinking of Doctor Who. :)
I wonder why they didn't mention any science fiction shows.
Yeah we really need a vagina wisperer on the enterprise.
The Good Place. You just described The Good Place. I know it hadn't come out yet for years, but, FYI, we have The Good Place.
The irony of every talk show, even youtube channels, filled with white people criticizing every other show for only having white people lol.
ha
+Mike Calhoun You gotta have some white people.
+Ella Igwe What if I don't care but I like to pretend I do only to secretly hate every one and every thing. What if I want to pretend I care so people think decently of me, but in secret I troll the internet and commit cyber-bullying?
+Ella Igwe Are you saying the hosts of the show secretly cyber bully people? Presumptuous much?
Ella Igwe Well obviously you can't read then.
Shred penguins last line: "but in secret I troll the internet and commit cyber-bullying?"
Your reply: "then you'd be exactly like the hosts on this show?"
So yes you did say it plain as day, quit lying it makes you look dumb.
You haven't lived until you've seen Die Hard uncensored. Honestly.
I think it's hilarious that Swaim suggested Dinosaur Detective, because there actually was a made-for-tv movie called Anonymous Rex (2004) where dinosaurs disguise themselves as humans in the modern day. The protagonist is a strong, conflicted, male velociraptor who solves dino crimes with his triceratops best buddy. Seriously. Google it.
...also described American Horror Story...
My all time favorite USA show is "Burn Notice"
4:30 Dan nearly cracked at that Gordon Ramsey joke
Watching these After hours always makes me hungry.
"vagina whisperer" had me rolling on the floor
The ketchup stays on the table when Michael keeps talking and Soren apparently keeps shaking the bottle lmao
They forgot the key one...ethnic family comedies
I don't think there were any on the air at the time this video was made
There's like only two ethnic family comedies and they are both on ABC
popeye697 ethnic family comedy is any comedy featuring an "ethnic" (non white) family and/or a comedy where the ethnicity of a white family family is heavily portrayed and referenced to imply they are not stereotypical WASPS. These shows have been on since the 70s usually there are 2/3 per 5 year period and would include family matters, good times, 227, Moesha, Grounded For Life, George Lopez, and Everybody Hates Chris to name a few. More recently the Goldbergs, Fresh Off The Boat, Dr. Ken, Blackish, and Uncle Buck.
curly sue Goldbergs, Blackish, Uncle Buck, Dr. Ken, Fresh off the Boat. I listed more in my other comment that have been on since the 70s and not all on ABC (in fact FOX used to be king of Ethnic family comedies and CBSbefore that). Jesus, Just because you do not watch it doesn't mean they don't exists. Jesh white people really do think they are the center of the universe.
***** as opposed to whites bashing ethnics in real life? STFU
