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.

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.

It didn't intrigue me but the old white guys at work like it so I knew there was something wrong with that show

Friends.

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

To be fair, I have friends who love this show but also admit it hasn't aged well.

I’m pretty sure that was every 20-35 year old in the 90s.

Lost.

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

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

They did 2 things well (from an economic perspective) in my vaguely shit memory:

  • built of the success of castaway a few years earlier and survivor
  • marketed the absolute hell out of it pre-release. I remember hundreds of ads showing in the months leading to to it.

It paved the way for a lot of long running, high budget tv shows like heroes, supernatural etc...

I also severely disliked it.

Attack On Titan ( basically all the Anime )

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

One Punch Man is good. I enjoyed it

Also Mob Psycho 100 (same studio I think)

I watched Attack on Titan and thought it was ok. If you want to watch some good anime I thoroughly recommend the above

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.

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.

I had to get into it on my own time. I didn’t really like it the first time I tried watching it but I eventually started it back up again in VR and got sucked in.

Arrested development and it's always sunny.

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

Big Bang Theory, and all 'reality' shows.

How I Met Your Mother. Most laugh track comedies I found barely tolerable at best but that show fucking sucked major ass and I don’t trust the judgement of anybody who liked that show.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)

For reals. That show is so absolutely unfunny, it astounds me that anyone could enjoy watching it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

I couldn't take getting through half of the season (at least I think I made it halfway through)

It was super popular, I think people maybe have some nostalgia for it, but it's really a bad show.
