When it's a BS episode and then they toss the cliffhanger at the end, it's not entertaining, it's annoying and sort of lazy.
I mean there's no right and wrong here, if you're enjoying it, then it's working for you and it's successful. I just hate when shows pull this crap.

Meh, each their own, I guess, but I can still appreciate good scenes in the midst of a crappy TV show or movie. I hated Jurassic Park 2, but that scene where the T-Rex parents attack the research vehicles and the bald guy is trying to haul them up with the chain in the middle of it all was kick-ass. Rest of the movie, not so much (and, oddly enough, that movie also has one of my most hated and despised scenes on film - that little kid defeating the raptor with those stupid gymnastic flips). The Phantom Menace was an annoying POS, but the Darth Maul fight scenes were kick-ass. Doesn't mean I'm a fan of the work, though.
