That sounds really interesting.

Teresa and I finally saw Solo - A Star Wars Story today and I thought it was okay and it had a lot of action, but the actors who played Han and Lando didn't have the charisma or charm that Harrison Ford and Billy Dee Williams had, and I felt that the movie didn't really have a cohesive plot and it ran a little too long. It was "watchable" as my late father used to say, but it wasn't as good as most of the other Star Wars movies with the exception of the Prequel Trilogy movies, which it was superior to.

I finished Desperate Housewives and actually cried over it. One of the very few shows created that made me feel this way. It was a really wonderful show that I wish I started sooner.

What would you rank it out of ten?

Thanks for the links!

Strongly agree or disagree with any?

Regarding best shows...

There’s so many I’ve never seen... it’s hard to comment...

However, three things come to mind...

1. If Everwood would have been on ANY other network, it’d make every list of best TV shows.

2. M*A*S*H is one of the greatest shows of all time (especially during the time period of when it aired). It shouldn’t be so low.

3. Classics like The Andy Griffith Show and I Love Lucy are missing. Just no. Lol.

I find it so weird that gg is lumped in with these quality shows. It was a trash teensoap. Lower your expectations guys.

I don’t understand why a lot of a wb shows are ignored. I still believe everwood/felicity/Buffy/Veronica Mars were the best from cw/wb

Agreed. I don't get it either. I guess the WB and eventually, CW, were/are never taken seriously. You are right... those four shows were phenomenal and basically Buffy (and to a lesser extent, Veronica Mars) are only recognized from time to time. Everwood and Felicity, forget about it. It's ridiculous.

I liked it more than the regular Star Wars fanboys and fangirls did, and it seems you agree. I agree that neither Han Solo or Lando had anything close to the presence that the original actors had, and as much as I like Emilia Clarke as Qi'ra, none of the characters introduced in Solo will linger in my mind as a beloved character. Rogue One was definitely a much better extended universe entry.
