I just found the greatest site

It lists almost every TV show known to man and lets people debate on when the show lost its way, if it ever did.
My interest came because Joe finally caught the series finale of Roseanne last night. I'd heard it sucked and betrayed the fans, and both Joe's report and the commentary on Jump the Shark confirms it. I hate those finales that say it was all fake. Well, yes, inherently it was always fake, but you know what I mean. You get into a good show and love the characters and the writing and then they go "Just kidding!" Except Newhart, cause I never really liked that show and was glad to see some of those characters relegated to bad Chinese food dreams. If you're gonna do it, you have to do it just right.
I will never watch Roseanne's finale. This is not like the Holiday Special that one must suffer through. It's painful to see characters you love twisted beyond recognition. Guess that's why I hate the EU. ;)
But I really enjoy this new site. :D
