Masters of Sex

Aside from the nakidness, it was a really smart and well acted show. Lizzie Caplan was great, Michael Sheen was great and I loooved Betty the prostitute. And then in Season 3, they did a time jump of four years which is brave and really really stupid. It just wasn't the same show. Plus there other shows that were starting up, so I stopped.

.

when I saw what they were going to do for those last two episodes that made me jump ship, plus, Lizzie Caplan's character wasn't dealing with reality

watching vampire diaries is a chore to me when all I care about is Originals, you'd figure pulling Elena and Jeremy and limiting Tyler would help, it did not, show probably ran its course, and Matt is wasted on there, WAY better actor than what they give him,

if i let it pile up on my DVR and start to feel dread that I have to watch it. Better Call Saul is currently in that zone. Season 1 was pretty good, but i haven't started season 2 yet and I can't bring myself to start. I still think the show itself is pretty pointless, so I'm not excited at all.

I deleted the Knick season 2 off my dvr for the same reason. good show, but wasn't a "can't miss" for me, so i let it pile up and then it seemed daunting.

... which is weird since I love the streaming binge watch style of Netflix, yet when it's on my DVR something feels different.

I'm a nutjob

Show didn't know whether it wanted to be a small town drama or an over the top action show with gratuitous sex. When main character beat up the MMA dude I was like "aiight motherfukker
lol but ain't that like one of the first three episodes? by the way it wants to be an over the top action show with gratuitous sex, for sure.

Walking Dead: Once I read the comic, it was a wrap. The show was like a cheap soap opera
Yeah, I :camby:after the second season because I wasn't comfortable with the black men always taking a backseat to the alpha cacs.
Just didn't sit well with me and I love horror but not at this expense :rudy:

Walking Dead: just got stupid over time. The season the Governor was on may be the last good season

Breaking Bad: after Gus got blew up my interest went right along with it. Probably the only show where I wanted everyone to die. From Walt's wife, their retarded son, Skyler's bro-in-law and sister, to punk ass Jesse. Wanted them ALL dead.

The Blacklist: love Spader but no one in life wins that fukkin much. Threw real life logic into it and it was pretty much dead to me after that

Sopranos: After S3, went to shyt

House of Cards: Should've checked out after S2 after they made the homie Doug go out like a sucka but I hung around. S4 is slow like molasses.

OITNB: lost me on the last scene of S2

GoT: got about halfway thru S1 and just didn't have the patience for it. Sure it's good but just can't get with it

Entourage: S3 with splitting of the seasons BS. If a show does that, I automatically stop fukkin with it. Then it just became a show for Wahlberg's punk ass friends to make cameos in. Ari is the only reason for that show even being popular. Every other reoccurring character that was on there was absolute trash

Dexter - I shouldn't have to explain this one. Stopped after whatever season had Mos Def. Even for an unrealistic show I couldn't suspend disbelief any more.


Weeds- stopped at whatever season introduced that super duper thug drug dealer. I actually still don't like dude because of his character on that show


SVU - held on for a season and a half after Stabler the God left. Couldn't keep watching. Hated every single new character.

Grey's Anatomy - quit I think 4 seasons back or so. Just got really fukking stupid

The Walking Dead - Deplorable dramatization of the Tyreese character & the "once another black character shows up, one has to die" mandate the writers seemed to gleefully abuse on the show.:scust:

Hell On Wheels - Nothing bad in particular, but around the end of season three after Common's character finishes fighting off a bear, the show just went into "indifference mode".:manny:


The Simpsons - Stopped being interesting, which is more problematic then it not being very clever/humorous, but perhaps its gotten better now?:ld:


Law & Order: SVU - Increasingly preposterous plotlines, the lack of Stabler really hurts & the lack of Finn/Munch adventures flatlines any interest for me.:dame:


Entourage - Became a chore to sit through after a few seasons.:russell:

True Blood - sixth season... finished the last ep.. and just couldn't do it anymore. True Blood became so trash. Don't think I'll ever watch season 7 :snoop:


Getting close to quitting Walking Dead. I mean fukk.. this show needs a end game, and I haven't even watched this season. Hell I basically let the season before build up.

Arrow and Empire are towing the line with me on getting dropped.

Was watching Scandal with my wife but dropped it after Olivia got kidnapped. Went from a good show dealing with political scandals to some kind of weird spy thriller. Heard they dropped a lot of that spy stuff but I still haven't gone back.

Dropped True Blood after Sooky was revealed to be a fairy.

Dropped Dexter after the fifth season. Trinity should have changed the course of the show but it went back like nothing really happened.

Dropped Heroes and Arrested Development. Probably just to much time in between when they decided to bring them back plus Heroes just got worse every season.

Never really got into Walking Dead cause I had read the comics. Made it to the prison season and it was just way to different from the books for me.
