Don’t hate me, but Breaking Bad
deleted by creator
The first season is pretty bad. It feels so low budget, low stakes and boring.
I wonder if Better Call Saul would be a better entry point and then you’d be more invested in these characters and situations so you could deal with the slow pace of season one of BB
BCS knew what they were doing and had a larger budget from the get go, so you can feel the storylines immediately without revealing too much about the end of BB
If pacing is a problem with Breaking Bad’s first season, Better Call Saul offers no relief there. I love it, much more than I liked Breaking Bad, but the plot was a very slow crawl.
Same. I made it all the way to season 3 but really couldn’t continue.
Same here. Tried it once, didn’t care for the pilot episode and lost interest. A couple years later, some people encouraged me to give it another try after hearing that I tend to love character dramas. I made it partway through season 2 before I stopped and realized this show just isn’t for me.
The subject matter holds no interest to me, and the characters aren’t likeable or compelling enough for me to get invested.
I can appreciate that Breaking Bad is a well made show, but I don’t understand all the universal love it’s garnered.
Seinfeld. It’s just not funny.
Severance
I can understand even though I like it! I believe it’s because of the philosophical question I ask myself when watching it. I find the concept fascinating. Is the other you really you, or is one a slave. Notably with Helly when her innie don’t want to work for Lumon.
I know it’s a crowd favorite but The Bear.
I have watched three episodes. All of them get my anxiety to the roof. I asked my friends if it didn’t make them anxious, too and they replied ‘yes, but that’s the fun’.
Maybe I’ll watch it when I’m done with my studies… See if I miss my anxiety.
I watched the first season. Loved it, but yeah the anxiety is a LOT.
I only made it about two episodes into the second season. Still very very good TV, but it really is quite a burden to feel all that anxiety.
Breaking bad, soprano, dexter!
For the last two because it’s too slow paced! Breaking bad I believe having watched first season but couldn’t get into it.I watch the last of us but a lot episodes are also slow paced and if it wasn’t for short seasons and not watching it alone probably I would have dropped it.
At last house of dragons! Would really want to like it as it’s my kind of show.
office (us), it’s cringe
It’s supposed to be
This one took me a long time to get into but was ultimately worth it
Farscape.
I had a roommate that loved the show and some of the later season stuff seemed really interesting when I caught it by chance, but I just couldn’t get into it every time I tried to sit through the first season. I think it’s a lost cause now with how much sci-fi TV has evolved.
The funny thing is Claudia Black’s character was my favorite part of Stargate SG-1, and I also liked Ben Browder on it too. At least I saw enough of Farscape to catch the little wink-and-nod there.
There used to be a fan edit version of Farscape edited down to a few key minutes per episode, and it was surprisingly good.
(And surprising how many minutes of each episode could be cut without any meaningful loss…)
Sex And The City. I get so bored!
Let me set my deflectors to maximum before I say this:
I’ve never watched… Umm… “Lightning Bug”…
I feel that at this point it won’t live up to its own hype and I’ll be disappointed every time someone mentions how great it is, so I just… Don’t.

Anything with Nathan Fielder. I just can’t with that guy. He gets under my skin.
The expanse, tried twice…so far
As a fan of The Expanse and James S.A. Corey. I get it. I love the show and think it’s great, but I know it is not for everyone.
