They lost me when they introduced so many new city characters in one episode and it became too much about teen romance and rebellion. I think this was start of second season.

Oh, when eleven runs away to the city? It gets even better: none of that shit comes back up again.

But it absolutely does keep leaning into teen romance. I always felt it was a decent show but overrated, and it dropped off hard.

Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones

Couldn’t get past a season and the fandoms are just obnoxious.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It feels like all the breaking bad characters were designed to be the heel. I couldn't stand any of them, and if I can't stand any of the characters, why would i bother continuing watching the show?

Firefly. Amatuerish acting and plots that barely reached "Atomic Rifle" levels of sophistication don't really sit well with me.

Altered Carbon. I couldn't get past the first episode. I love sci-fi but this just feels pretentious.

Arrested development and it's always sunny.

I really don't care for cringe humor where everyone is an idiot.

Game of Thrones.

The incest didn't bother me, but pushing a child out a window hit the wrong note with me and my wife.

Lost.

god help me it was so fucking boring and riddled with holes. I still don't understand how it was so popular.

Same! I gave it way more time than it deserved because so many people raved about the show. For me, it was like a snail-paced soap opera about the least likeable people in the world.

Firefly. I thought I could stomach sci-fi but I find it unwatchable for personal reasons. I wish I could but it's not for me.

Game of Thrones. I stopped watching when Aquaman raped the blonde.

Then I started reading the books. the rape scene was written slightly different, so...whatever. Then I got to the part where the brother/sister threw the boy out the window. Done. Violence against kids is my line.

GOT

It gets so boring and does nothing for you to care about the starks

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago (2 children)

It gets so boring

It starts so boring. I barely made it through the first season and some of the second. It was sooooooo fucking dull that I gave up on it around the time what's his name dies in the desert.

Buffy.

It was just a big sloppy plateful of Beverly Hills, 90210 with a small side salad of weird shit.

The Mandalorian.

Succession.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I love the Mandalorian, but the people on succession were all just so horrible that I couldn’t stomach watching it anymore. I didn’t wanna be around thoseawful awful people.
