I love this show, and I have a strong feeling this isn’t going to add anything to it. Have any of these “new” seasons for long canceled shows ever been good?

    Even in the original run the show had completely lost its juice by the time they added Lucky. Big fan of the show but I’m going to pretend this doesn’t exist and continue live in my pristine mind palace where the show ended after season 7.

        Might be different if you didn’t grow up in a town very similar to Arlen, but those first several seasons felt like a documentary of so many people I actually knew, but then it just kinda became disconnected from the setting and started to feel like a more generic cartoon set in Everywhere USA. Those first several seasons though are straight up magical in their ability to accurately channel the feeling of small towns in that region at that specific time.

        • No i hated it at first because i was a teenager and didn’t get satire and it’s like why would i watch a show about my dad. But that’s what makes it good, it really nails that cracker suburbia. And i disagree it never lost its magic
