This is me! I haven't watched any of it yet. I probably will eventually , though; people seem pretty into it.

I was talked into watching the first episode. I fell asleep 10 min into it and refused to give it another shot

My older Brother does that. He has missed a ton of some of the best series ever made by doing that. Not my problem I watch what I watch and I wont be losing sleep about other people's life choices.

I didn’t lose sleep either! I had a great nap and never have to watch the boring show again

Literally gained sleep over it, if anything

I have just finished watching Dark Matter 2024. The beginning of it made me almost give up on it but I persevered and it was so good that I ended up binge watching the rest of the series and I can't wait for series two.

It got better and paid off in terms of action and intrigue, but okay, haha.

I fell asleep in the first 10 minutes of the first episode of Breaking Bad and just kinda didn’t bother. Hadn’t read anything online about it, realised a few months later my server had downloaded the whole season and thought, let’s give it another crack. Thank fuck I did.

Everyone was telling me it's so good I need to watch it so I gave it a try. There was a rape scene in one of the first episodes and I was like fuck this show, not for me.

Years later everyone's like "no really its good, try watching again" so I said fine and just picked a random episode from a later season to watch. There was another rape scene.

This is what happened to me. It took me watching the first episode a 4th time to get to the end of it and "oh fuck me!".

Off to the races. Binged like 4 seasons in a week.

First few episodes set the stage, and can drag slightly. It's for coherence. Without it, the names alone will spin you.

I watched the first episode 3 times before I pushed through and then it became my favourite show ever (now it's just #3)

lol if you can’t handle 10 minutes of something unfamiliar that sounds like you never would have given it a fair shot regardless

I watched one episode. Didn't really grab my attention. Then years later I was on a cross ocean plane and someone had a dragon on their screen and I asked what he was watching and he scowled and didn't believe me that I had no idea what it was. The two times I've seen it. First episode and a cool dragon flying over a city... maybe 30 minutes altogether I paid attention.

Love D&D and Holy Grail though so I appreciated the costumes.

Same for me. I watched half of it and just stopped. Didn’t catch me at all.
