How many times have you watched a tv series that was hyped up but once you watched it, you were disappointed and found that you had wasted your time. Some series just suck but people like to watch because their peers watch it and it is a great topic to talk about. Also, a series might start out great but after several seasons, it might become less appealing and find ourselves yawning while watching it. The thing about tv series or films is that it is art, which is always subjective. Nevertheless, below are series i did not enjoy or grew tired of.
1)How I Met Your Mother – I cannot remember how many times a friend of mine has told me to watch it and I did but could not find it funny or enjoyable. Every time, I tried to watch it, all I could think about was how it copied Friends or it was just another version. This show did not even try to hide the fact they were copying Friends and it aired right after the series ended. Come on now! Smh!
2)The Office – I cannot understand how people find this series entertaining. I gave up after, I watched two episodes. Sure, Pam and Jim’s relationship was cute and all but the rest was just boring. I felt they tried really hard to be comedic, which turned me off.
3)The Walking Dead – Oh boy! The fact that I do not like zombies turned me off and made me not want to watch this series. I only gave it a chance because Jeffery Dean Morgan was in there but I liked him better as Denny in Grey’s Anatomy. He is a great actor but my likeness for him could not make me stick around.
4)Pretty Little Liars – How many A’s are there?????? I gave up after three seasons because it got really old and annoying due to a new “A” every week. I like a good mystery but this is something, I will not recommend any mystery lovers to watch. I think the only reasons many people tuned in was because of the girls’ relationship drama with their respective lovers.
5) 13 Reasons Why – I started watching this series because I kept seeing it on a social media site. I thought to give it a try because why not? Initially, I liked it because Kate Walsh was in there and the fact that a dead girl left recording behind for her peers explaining why she committed suicide. It was pretty interesting but it got plain boring. That’s it! I could not sit through another episode.
You probably might have any friends left, after admitting to not liking these popular shows but how long can you sit through without stabbing your eyes out? One cannot continue to watch a series because their best friend likes it, it is time to tell him or her the truth. Like they say, honesty is the best policy!
