I'll start, Deadman wonderland, I remember watching it when I was just a teen, it was wonderfully gory, had sex appeal, an interesting premise, all the things a young guy likes. But I got to I think the third episode and I was like "what happened?" The action totally fell off, no character development was happening, it was just boring.

This sticks out to me since I have such a high suspension of disbelief so I like pretty much all media, the fact that this made teenage me stop watching a series midway just shows how much I didn't like it compared to the start.

What about y'all, what series let you down?

GAMERS.

a romantic comedy and a video game club? With real life copyright free references to games that we know..? With a catchy OP loaded with video game references??? I'm intrigued.

No let's use every fucking trope and make EVERY plot and conflict revolve around misunderstandings that could make be resolved instantly if the characters had more than 2 braincells and actually EXPLAINED instead of saying "ahhh eeehh ohh boy it's not what you think...!" "Why are you leaving? It's not what you think I swear!" look I can handle a few for plot sake but you can't make everything rely on the characters stupidity.

Also it was cancelled after s1 (probably for the best)
