Severance. So. Goddamn. Slow.
GOT
It gets so boring and does nothing for you to care about the starks
It gets so boring
It starts so boring. I barely made it through the first season and some of the second. It was sooooooo fucking dull that I gave up on it around the time what's his name dies in the desert.
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.
Friends
Seinfeld
Yellowstone
The Office
The Office season 1 is dogshit
The rest is excellent
This might be the only time in my life that I have ever heard someone say they didn't like Seinfeld. Never thought I'd see the day.
I don't think you're supposed to like Yellowstone. I think you're supposed to feel obligated towards it
Buffy.
It was just a big sloppy plateful of Beverly Hills, 90210 with a small side salad of weird shit.
