About Our Rankings

For some, watching the first few seasons of a TV show or playing 10+ hours of a video game to get to the “good stuff” isn’t a problem, but for others, looking for a show or game that hits its stride in the first couple of episodes or chapters, knowing at what point you have enough info to make a decision about whether not to keep going can be difficult.

Does It Get Good sources rankings directly from fans and critics alike to present you with the information needed to know how many episodes or hours you should give a television show or game before making a decision about whether or not you want to continue.

With hundreds of new TV shows released across dozens of television networks and streaming services, or new video games coming out every day, it’s next to impossible to give every new piece of content a shot. Our goal is to make it easier to get you the information you need to avoid wasting time on shows and games that you aren’t sure about whether or not you want to commit to.

With an ever-expanding index of shows and games, Does It Get Good is committed to being the go-to resource for potential new viewers for almost any show or game.

How do we rank shows and games?

The team at Does It Get Good uses a mix of the following:

  • User-generated input
  • Critical reception
  • Aggregated data

We put the above data points through a machine learning process to output the popular consensus on when fans of a show or video game felt it got good enough to keep watching or playing. We are confident that our models will present readers with the most accurate representation for any TV show or video game.
