I am not a teen.

    Do what you want, I’m just pointing out why I think it’s silly.

    I also think giving up on a show that is considered one of the greatest of all time, after a single episode, is foolish. Regardless if the reason was sex or not.

    I guess I just have more interest in finding and watching classic films and shows. I also have enough free time to watch pretty much everything that I want (plus more).

      I’m going to upset you more by listing a bunch of other “greatest shows of all time” that I didn’t like and I wasted far much more time with them. Just taking a look at some ‘best shows of all time’ lists…

      Breaking Bad
      The Sopranos
      Westworld
      House of Cards
      The Wire
      Oz
      Squid Game
      BoJack Horseman
      Curb Your Enthusiasm
      Twin Peaks
      The Americans
      Succession
      Mad Men

      I don’t care if you or anyone else liked them. I didn’t. I clearly have different entertainment needs than the people who like the “greatest shows of all time.” I could go through each one and explain to you why I don’t like them or you could accept that what I consider entertaining does not often include the “greatest shows of all time.”

      I’m guessing some of the shows I consider to be the greatest of all time you haven’t even heard of, or if you had, you didn’t agree. Just looking at my hard drive and restricting it to American shows that are less well-known or less-recent:

      Mystery Science Theater 3000
      Fernwood2Night/America2Night
      Food Party
      Fishing with John
      The Adventures of Pete and Pete
      Northern Exposure
      Odyssey 5
      Wonderfalls
      The first live-action version of The Tick
      Police Squad
      It’s Garry Shandling’s Show

      I would watch any of those over the list of shows above. And, as I said, that’s only American shows. I can list so many more British ones. And then we get into animation…
