What's a really popular TV show you just couldn't get into?

The Office

It makes my skin crawl.

Friends.

Shallow, punchable people who made being dumb fucks a virtue.

Big Bang Theory, and all 'reality' shows.

The Office

Any and all "reality" TV.

Big bang theory. Cannot stand the characters on that show, especially Sheldon

Game of Thrones. To much a period drama.

The Orville.

I'm sorry! I'm a trekkie so I really wanted to love it. I can't stand Seth McFarlane, though, and apparently it isn't just his animated shows like Family Guy or American Dad that I hate.

• Attack on Titan
• The walking dead
• Vinland Saga
• Game of Thrones
• Arrested Development
• Curb your Enthusiasm (can't get past the first episode)

Lost - for some reason I just could't bring myself to care about any of the characters or the premise.

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.

Stranger Things.

Lost.

Boring af.

Mr.Robot

So much drugs, depression, late stage capitalism.

Idk wtf I was watching. Too dark and too confusing. I thought I was watching a WW2 Holocause movie, the vibes was depressing AF.

Did I mention the drugs?

So. Much. Drugs.

There were More Drug Scenes than Plot Scenes that I actually understood.

(Maybe I just have a smooth brain who knows 🤷‍♂️)

Arrested development and it's always sunny.

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

Severance. So. Goddamn. Slow.

Lost.

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

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

I don't understand Parks and Rec.

Buffy Supernatural Smallville The Arrowverse stuff

I dunno man. I just couldn't get into the serialized urban fantasy pretty people vs monster of the week genre, even thought it feels like it should be right up my ally. I used to play a TON of V:tM and WW:tA, and Im all about camp and community theater energy. I liked some of the other Whedon stuff at the time, like Firefly. And I'm a life long fan of all things super heroes and I even respect Arrowverse from a far for its commitment to its status as a multimedia project (before the MCU, even).

More recently, some similarly themed shows have been made and I got into them way more; What We Do In The Shadows and Stan Against Evil, and I think maybe the magic sauce was that I would have liked the energy paired something less earnest and more tongue in cheek. All of these shows also had the issue of really annoying fandoms. Its probably the reason I couldn't lower my hackles around Doctor Who.

Attack On Titan ( basically all the Anime )

The Sopranos

Andor season 2, doesn’t catch on after 4 episodes. Done with it.

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.

The Mandalorian.

Succession.

Breaking bad, walking dead, any star wars show

So uninteresting imo

Andor. It feels so different and it is interesting because it builds the empire, but somehow it just felt too different. I watched a video essay about it recently, where the essayist made the point that he loves it for being more serious and darker in tone than most other Star Wars Media. I wonder if seen through this lens I'd enjoy it more during a rewatch.

Yellowstone. I wanted to like it because Americans riding horses and doing cowboy gun things is a vibe, and I wanted to get that without actually having to travel there and be around Americans. It’s just so bad though.

Friends

Seinfeld

Yellowstone

The Office

Euphoria and The Office.

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

The Leftovers. Tried twice.

office, walking dead, ISAIP season 13+ only, Nutrek its just so bad and its a disrespect to the continuity of the franchise and roddenberrry, plus KURTZMAN has said he doesnt care about consistency(it was pretty clearly when your stealing or lifitng material directly from memory wiki alpha and beta site), which why it became pure garbage. GOT, ROP i assume people also think its terrible too.

Buffy.

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

Any sitcom or comedy.

My this question certainly comes up very often on here doesn't it.
