        Yeah, and it was a generational plot too. Most of them had parents doing the same stuff 20 years ago. It wouldn’t be ridiculous to do it again 20 years later.

        I think the worst part was cliffhangers, and modern streaming eliminates that. If they drop a season at a time, they don’t have to always have a giant plot point teasing next week’s episode.

        It probably won’t be ground breaking TV again, but I’d watch it.

    Plot suffered from characters becoming too powerful without limit, getting painted into corners, and rules of their own universe being broken for dumb plot points at the last second. If they don’t put much better constraints into place, it’ll just suck.

    Is this the one with the cop who literally smells crime?

    Ed: I’m wrong, he was a mind reader which is a bit less hokey

      You’re thinking of Always Sunny. “And then he smells crime again, he’s out busting heads. Then he’s back to the lab for some more full penetration. Smells crime. Back to the lab, full penetration. Crime. Penetration. Crime. Full penetration. Crime. Penetration. And this goes on and on and back and forth for 90 or so minutes until the movie just sort of ends.”
