"hey Reddit, give me the twelve best examples where a second half of season 4 is vastly superior to a second half of a season 3, but not as good as the first half of the same show's season 2."

commenters:

- 12 comments about gritty 20 yo HBO shows for/about men over 40

- a comment about Dexter, House, Lost

- a snarky comment that says "did an AI ask this?"

Edit: oh, and someone saying that "Breaking Bad" and/or "Better Call Saul" is actually "underrated"

Was wondering why this is necessary but it’s honestly quite funny.

yeah, it was mean of me to comment that here: it's something I could have just as well commented under dozens of other postings in these last few months.

I like ratingraph - the website where imdb user ratings for individual episodes of a show get turned into a graph; and I wish that ratingraph had a detailed search function where you could just enter something like "4 seasons, all with an average above 8/10, and all four averages ascending" etc.

(...plus, I always wonder if some of these questions could be answered with "Yes! (a female-skewing show like) 'Knots Landing' had 4 popular seasons that got better and better" but the reddit demographics just always give us "House" and HBO instead, lol.)
