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.

lmao

whenever I actually watch shows other people like I usually like them too

I think it's more of a "starting a show has to be the next natural step of what I do" kind of thing

I have an enormous backlog of stuff I actively want to watch but just aren't

Got it, that makes sense. I guess I was just suddenly inspired to invent a possible reason out of thin air. Like a creative writing practice.

it was good and resonant in a strange way that I will need time to articulate

Thanks. Glad it resonated
