I want to know what TV shows YOU think have the most complicated (not necessarily the best) plotlines.

props for Andromeda.

Burn Notice, and Desperate Housewives.

Most Reality Live-in Television... Survivor, Big Brother...

or perhaps that's stench of not caring. :roll:

SG-1 was originally high on my list... probably because I didn't follow it regularly...

The Red John plot also ranks up there. :P

I have yet to see a confusing story line.

None that I can think of on tv but then again tv is dumbed down so that the majority are entertained rather than the minority left thinking </cynicism>

As far as confusing story lines go though I think if you sit down and try explain it simply to someone the storyline of the Metal Gear Solid game series is completely messed up o_O

I can genuinely say that from the Matrix, to LOST to Inception and Shutter Island I have never been thrown or confused by a plot line.

As for intricate I would have to say Breaking Bad (things like a huge story line of a woman potentially being a taddle and Walter playing with a thread on his hat.. a loose end, just after the focus shift.. amazing), Shutter Island (ridiculous premise when the end is visualised, good composition when you head back and watch it) or LOST.. yeah.. lost is lost. The last two seasons were abysmal.. but seasons 1-4.. there has never been and I doubt there will be for some time be as good Tv made.

It didn't really confuse me, but I'd say Lost qualifies for the "most".

I wish there was something confusing to watch. Then again, typically most people switch channels when things get confusing.
I would give credit to Fringe, but that has a logic of its own, once you have that, none of it is confusing.

Oh well. ;) Fun times.

A show called Rubicon that was on about 2 years ago...I understood most of it but 98% of my mates had no clue what it was about....i also watched the Sc-fi channels Bigfoot the other day and i have to say it was that bad it was good :smt043

I think I'm in the position of never being WTH over a plot line in a sense of confusion.

The hardest thing by far, that I've encountered when following a show is keeping track of every supporting characters name in Game of Thrones. Supporting characters seem to get introduced so regularly and for such a brief amount of time...... :shock:

the old sci-fi show known as Sliders...
(think sliding through slipstreams in time, space, and reality into parallel universes.)

that could get confusing in a hurry...

and for those who say they don't get confused by the plots they see...

The plots that you have to pay the most attention to...
ie cooking dinner, shuffling kids, or pets, or moving laundry is out of the question. ;)
