so what other shows did you call that never became shyt huh? wow, you called 2 shows that everyone else knew were amazing shows

But isn't the premise of what you are arguing is you need to let series have four good season? :what: Do you think HOC will not be amazing and suffer a fall off?

You cats do this every time a show has a good first season. It happened with "Heroes" back in the day and more recently with "Homeland".

A show needs, at the bare minimum, 4 great seasons before it can even be considered an all-time great. Not 1 great season....not 2-3 mediocre seasons and a great season....3-4 certified great seasons. I don't mean great by Coli standards, but that's a part of it. I mean critically acclaimed, widely accepted as great, universally praised.

"House of Cards" has 1 season like that. Let's re-examine the show 3 years from now.

Well the executive producer said the show is likely done after season 2, so GOAT status isn't in the cards (pun intended).

Nope. I know this is the one. I called it with the Sopranos and with The Wire. Its just instinct. You can tell by the writing and development that this show will not fall off for at least 5 seasons. You could see the writing on the wall with shows like weeds, heroes, lost, entourage etc were going to go downhill because at the core their premises were weak. I don't feel the same way about HOC. Its kind of like how scouts were hyping up Lebron in 02 as the dude that was going to be the star of the decade. You just know it. You dudes are entitled to your opinion and thats cool but I disagree. This show is shaping up to be the one of the GOATS.

You do realize people said this, word for word, about the shows I mentioned, right?

And :what: at "this won't fall off for at least 5 seasons". It's a remake, there isn't even 5 seasons of the original series to remake, there's 12 episodes, that's it. The show could fall off a cliff over the next 2 seasons because at some point they're going to run out of material to remake.
