you said you wanted the 4k cut, you didn’t say anything about postproduction

This is a telecine error because they clearly went to the original film to make the 4K transfers that were originally created for 1080 TV. They use a matte box on set to create the ‘crop’ while still taking the full frame with stuff like booms in them. I think, usually, they crop it in telecine, but this was probably requested to be done in editing. A lot of eyes should have seen this so it’s unbelievable something like that got released. It looks like the show was going to have a problem being in 4K based on not thinking forward.

Pretty sure I’ve seen the Chappelle episode and that’s it.

Oh wait, I did watch the first Survivor.

So we’re trying to make “rage bait” the word i see

LOL at not having any classic sitcoms on that list.

Edit: I guess it’s only since the year 2001…ho-hum

3-6, 8, and 9 actually are all incredibly elite so I’m feeling surprisingly unbaited.

I can’t stand when randoms say ‘Best’. Just say it’s the list maker’s favorites and then it’s accurate.

“The Constant” is definitely mega elite.

You haven’t seen the Sopranos? The Wire? Breaking Bad?

What the actual fuck?

Not everyone cares about quality TV, come on…

I would rank Half Measures above Ozymandias, realizing this is heresy.

Right there with The We We Are in terms of best final scene.

It is very hard to remember singular episodes of great TV shows so this thing is usually really hard to pick.

Periodic reminder that Connor’s Wedding was a good episode of TV cosplaying as an all-time episode of TV and probably wasn’t in the top three Succession episodes just that season.

The Fly is better than both of them.

Could honestly pick 20 of them as my favorite on a given day.

Half Measures resonates because of the Mike speech.

Yeah, I don’t know names of episodes. I had to look up which one was “The Constant”.
