"Dumb tv pretending to be smart" just seems like such an incredibly subjective assessment that I can't agree with the secret. I agree that there are shows which I personally feel are not as smart as the creators seem to think they are. But that's complete personal opinion on my part, and I'm aware that others will perceive the quality of the show, and the authorial intent behind the show, differently than I do.

I would personally agree with Lost as an example. I don't think it was as smart as the writers seemed to think it was. (Though for my money, Sherlock would have been my number one example of a show that, IMO, wasn't as smart as the creators seemed to think it was.)

I've only seen S1 of TWD, but I would personally disagree on that one. I thought S1 of TWD was genuinely well-written and impactful, and I don't perceive it as a show where the creators thought they were telling a qualitatively different story than they actually were telling.

Season 1 of TWD was fine. Later seasons turned to shit real fast.

Ah, okay. I can definitely see that happening. IMO, S1 set it up as the kind of show that really couldn't afford to lose its edge. I think that's one of the reasons I didn't come back for S2. I thought S1 was really strong, but I was wary of where they were going to go with it.

Finally someone who agrees with me! I really liked S1, gave up part way through S2 because it was so dull, picked it up again at 3 (?) because people were hyping it and then dropped it again. Not worth the effort for me.
