What's a show you've never watched and never will because people keep telling you. "You HAVE to watch it!" (hexbear.net)

I'll go first:

Breaking Bad.

I can't do it. I've seen the first season! I know what you're going to say next: oh but it gets better after the first season you HAVE to watch it.

The Walking Dead.

Can't do it. There is so much walking dead bullshit I simply can't watch it.

Battlestar Galactica.

I know its good. I've been told over and over and over again. I simply can't!

None of these shows are going to live up to the hype I can feel it in my bones.

Andor might be in that boat but I did watch it all the way through. Probably won't again. I liked it, but if you haven't seen it yet I can't imagen it lives up to the hype. Maybe a little.

People have lied to you. The showrunners basically admitted they had no plan and were making shit up as they went along, resulting in plot twists that rendered previous twists nonsensical.

That's Incredible! I knew people who wouldn't shut the fuck up about this show.

By like the halfway point of the series they'd ran out of ideas for twists, so

spoilerthey just started making random people cylons even when it didn't make sense. They literally admitted they didn't even think about how it would function and got the math wrong and had to retcon an explanation for the number of Cylons. They also turned a character's religious belief correct, as in they were canonically a messenger of actual capital G God..
