If you could go back in time and watch any show for the first time again
 
What would it be?

To clarify, it would be like you knew nothing about what was going to happen on the show.

I wonder which poster inspired this thread.

Hmmmm?!

Cobra Kai, bitch.

Blonde Moment 09-07-2020 09:38 PM

To watch MASH

Destor 09-07-2020 11:55 PM

so wait am i the person i am now or the person i was then?

Lock Jaw 09-07-2020 11:58 PM

Dunno. Whichever one you want to imagine.

Destor 09-08-2020 12:09 AM

if my personhood is a collection of my past expriences and i went back in time to relive a show would i even be myself without having seen it as i have in the present timeline? can i be sure that without it i would be a wholey different person through some butterfly effect tomfoolery?


and if i am the person i was then who's to say i would have the same expriences? maybe i would make an infinite number of minor decisions in my mind differently; altering how a joke lands or a emotional climax grips me? what if i ruin the very thing i nostalgicly cling to?

Destor 09-08-2020 12:10 AM

no...this whole thing doesnt work for me

Destor 09-08-2020 12:10 AM

i dont think i can participate

Tom Guycott 09-08-2020 12:17 AM

Meanwhile, I say Firefly.

I still think it's funny that I missed out on the show entirely because I happened to be flipping channels one night, saw the first opening battle section of the pilot episide (which is another whole chunk of nonsense since Fox aired it out of order), and literally said aloud: "Meh. I don't feel like watching Starship Troopers."

Seanny One Ball 09-08-2020 07:37 AM

Destor's persona is solely made up of all of the TV shows he has watched over the years.

Sixx 09-08-2020 09:08 AM

I posted before reading the thread right. Married with Children.

Sixx 09-08-2020 09:10 AM

arent we all

Lock Jaw 09-08-2020 09:51 AM

I guess imagine how you were when you first watched the show and you would be that. For instance you could answer that you wish you could be a kid watching Looney Tunes for the first time.

Big Vic 09-08-2020 10:29 AM

I'll have to think of something that was spoiled for me before I watched it the first time....Only Fight Club is coming to mind.

Maybe the entirety of the Austin McMahon Feud from 1998 and 1999? Dunno.

TV: Avatar Last Airbender
Movie: Avengers Endgame

Seanny One Ball 09-08-2020 02:15 PM

If I had seen Endgame before I saw the spoilers I'd have been blown away by the ending I think.

Still pretty good though.

Lock Jaw 09-08-2020 07:31 PM

Maybe my answer to this question is 24, but maybe not, because I did watch some a year or two ago after it being years and it was still exciting as heck and I didn't remember a lot of the specifics.

Seanny One Ball 09-08-2020 07:47 PM

24 was lame af

Lock Jaw 09-08-2020 08:14 PM

So is yr face

Seanny One Ball 09-08-2020 09:12 PM

You're a stupid idiot!

Lock Jaw 09-08-2020 10:33 PM

That's not what your mom told me last night!

Lock Jaw 09-08-2020 10:34 PM

Yeah......


She was all yelling and screaming.....


"Who are you?! How did you get in my house?! Get out before I call the police!!"

For some reason, my brain jumped to five kids holding up rings of top five TV shows, and forming us Captain Planet style.

My problem was more in my experience with Infinity War. Saw it in the theatre, and mostly everyone let out a disappointing groan at the end and people like "aw man, I gotta wait for a sequel?!" ... like NOBODY KNEW this was in two parts. It was only planned and promoted as such forever.

Destor 09-09-2020 09:21 AM

back to the future

Apart from where they literally said they weren’t doing a two-parter?

Now I'm sad.

Sarah Chalke ended up in her underwear an awful lot on that show.
That is the best thing about Scrubs.

Lock Jaw 09-10-2020 11:31 AM

Hmmmm a comedy show is actually a good call. I was trying to think of only serious shows.... but thinking about it, discovering and seeing something like It's Always Suny in Philadelphia for the first time again would be amazing.

Oz

That was and still is the most disturbing show I’ve ever seen. Virtually every character was literally a villain and I thought seeing foes interacting and feuding with each other was highly entertaining because heels will do anything to accomplish their goal.


Another interesting thing they did on Oz was they would take a violent and evil character and put him in a storyline where we the audience felt bad for them. However, as soon as people would like that character, he would do something violent and shocking to show you that he was still a very dangerous person that belonged in prison.


On the flip-side, they would take generally less violent characters and have them do something shocking and violent to again show the audience....these are prisoners. And they do not belong in society until they can get rehabilitated.

No but after looking up what that episode was about since I didn't remember, that comedy series sure did have a bunch of depressing stuff in it.

If it wasn't for ABC trying to squeeze out a completely unneeded season, that series would have had one of the best ever finales.
