Friday the 13th the series discussion

*turtlefanforever* · 10-04-2014, 02:00 PM

we got any fans of this classic show here? Chiller has been playing it a lot. Went from about '87-90 on CBS. Was a staple for the si-fi channel when it first started up. Just got back into it again and bought the complete series. In the process of watching the 71 episodes now. Discuss.

Still holds up. Really one of those rare timeless shows. The storylines are so good that you can forgive some of the CGI but even that is actually still good. That would be the only thing 'dated' on this series actually.

When I originally got into the show I had only watched a random episode and was like damn this is good! Its really a show where you can watch anywhere and enjoy it, but there's continuity throughout and the experience is intensified having watched from the beginning. Its also one of the rare occasions where the first episode is actually the worst. They took their time to set everything up so if you're starting from the beginning don't knock it based on the first episode, the rest are top notch.

First 2 seasons are phenomenal. 3rd is still good but took a serious dip when John D Lemay left. One of those rare occasions where a show stopped at the right time.
