What is a popular show or movie you never really got into?

For me it would have to be everyone loves raymond, friends, golden girls, nightmare on elmstreet, the walking dead, the saw movies.

Oh, Golden Girls, that and Cheers were our Friday night sorted.
I never go into any Star Trek apart from Next Generation.
Voyager and DS9 were popular, but not for me.
Saw some Buffy and Angel. I enjoyed what I saw, but never thought, these are programs that I will follow.
Never gave Lost a try, once I heard how bad reviews of how one of the early seasons ended.
Everybody Loves Raymond had a lot of the same tropes and some really not nice characters. Yeah.

Golden Girls was def not for me.

The Nightmare on Elmstreet, The Walking Dead, and any Saw movie...not my cups of tea.

I did watch Friends, though it got less interesting later as they made Ross into a bumbling character, etc.

Never watched a moment of Game of Thrones because I abandoned Netflix some time ago. It is irritating that so many TV people and news pundits constantly refer to characters from it when describing current politics. They assume we all have unlimited access to all media services.

Breaking Bad. I feel like I should love it. Everything about the premise is right up my alley but I can't seem to get into it.

I haven't watched the game of thrones, it seemed like everyone was watching it at one point

@being Same. I just don't find the settings and general aesthetic intriguing.
That said, I might still like it if the stories are good. Looks means nothing really.

@Matt85 mm sometimes looks give an overall impression, they create an atmosphere
Matt85 · 36-40, M
@being Yeeah I guess sometimes looks are important. I understand this from you, as someone who works with an aesthetic medium but what I mean is even though I'm not drawn to thrillers (as in films and shows) in general (for example), due to the fact they have boring aesthetics,
I sometimes really enjoy them because the story is gripping.
I appreciate what you are saying though.

Stranger Things, it was all the hype but i never even bothered it seemed like something for teens. Anything reality tv, any HGTV type shows i cant get into. I like thrillers and horrors.
@AngelUnforgiven IMHO, Winona Ryder and Sean Astin both hit bottom with that show.

The Big Bang Theory. I tried, but I just couldn’t get into it.
shinyplasticlove · 51-55, M
@EndlessHorizon How dare you.😂
Matt85 · 36-40, M
Lord Of The Rings
Sorryyyyy
Don't throw things at me
🥺
shinyplasticlove · 51-55, M
@Matt85 Me either. Never been my cup of tea. Harry Potter as well.
FreddieUK · 70-79, M
@Matt85 I have never 'been into' LoR or Potter, but did watch the LoR films recently when they were all available cheaply on a streaming service (probably YT) and they were well made, but once was enough. I think seeing Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) being nice was a step too far in the suspension of disbelief. 🤣
Matt85 · 36-40, M
@FreddieUK The Matrix. Now that is a corker.
Ducky · 31-35, F
Most sitcoms. Imo, they’re just not funny. Idk how they become so popular.
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
@Ducky Yeah shows like Friends and The Office and shit like that, I just can't get into.
MarineBob · 56-60, M
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
@MarineBob WTF? For real?
shinyplasticlove · 51-55, M
@MarineBob Maybe the newer ones.
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
@wishforthenight blasphemy!
shinyplasticlove · 51-55, M
@wishforthenight Never watched it.
RailroadRambler · 22-25, M
Anything Marvel, most things Star Wars, or really anything superhero stuff (except for 'The Dark Knight').
shinyplasticlove · 51-55, M
@RailroadRambler I used to like Marvel and DC but they overplay them on tv.
Friends, GOT, Lost, Survivor, The Sopranos, The Walking Dead, most horror movies.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
99% of everything on TV.
HobNoblin · 36-40, M
Pretty much all non sci fi shows.
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
Sons of Anarchy
shinyplasticlove · 51-55, M
@HowtoDestroyAngels Never seen it.
Ferise1 · 46-50, M
You just named all the stuff I like LOL
I don’t like stranger things or The Big Bang Theory
shinyplasticlove · 51-55, M
@Ferise1 I love The Big Bang Theory.
Ferise1 · 46-50, M
@shinyplasticlove it’s so pretentious
