    The sopranos. I got halfway through season 2 and decided I just didn’t give a shit about finishing it.

    I feel like it was a show that was greatly helped by the once a week group viewing era.

    Lost. I got about halfway through the first season back then until I couldn’t shake the impression that it was a bunch of convoluted horse shit produced by hacks who thought they were bleeding edge. History proved my impression correct.

    Stranger Things. Gave up after the first season. It just felt like the show was trying too hard to feel like something nostalgic from the 80s without any of the substance or writing the things from the 80s it was trying to mimic had.

    The walking dead. A good show with high production value I will admit.

    But I found it to be souless morbid and honestly disgusting.

    Amerikans.

    Like really y’all that addicted to the honey‽ Everybody is fucking everybody and only the two main characters know and can talk about it?

    Always Sunny and Arrested Development. Both shows are just people being really fucking stupid and it’s somehow hilarious.

    Surprised to see so few mentions of For All Mankind, I really wanted to like it I did, but I only got about 2 episodes in. I realized the setting was the only thing that remotely interested me, the characters were bland at best, and absolutely incompetent at worst.

    It was a series with the ripe call to the “competency porn” as I’ve seen described as, but the characters couldn’t contrast the setting any further. I did spoil myself before I tried getting into it, a few moments stuck out to me. Firing on two unarmed cosmonauts, getting crushed between two interplanetary vessels while trying to covertly siphon fuel, and having a child on mars. Just did not feel very NASA by the end of it, tell me if you think I’m wrong and should give another chance however.

    Oddly enough I think I found that aesthetic I was looking for in Stargate SG-1, I never really gave that franchise a chance until now, I’m almost surprised how well it seemed to age, especially how little I see it mentioned in comparison to Trek, or even Doc Who (which i know next to nothing of)
