    I stopped watching Parenthood when something reminded me that Erika Christensen is a Scientologist.

    Good girls(wife watched it,I endured it). Every episode: we need money,do something stupid. Consequences arise “WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?!”. Essentially this. Plus the lead keeps asking the gang leader why hes doing this to her,all the above is every. single. episode. (I think they end up a thing by season 3 or so). Twilight was a better love story.

    Stopped watching Breaking Bad after the first episode because that Walter White was such an unsympathetic jerk and I didn’t want to spend any more time with him. Fortunately, someone made me change my mind later 😃

    A long time ago I gave up on the wire at season 2 episode 1 because I thought there was no way the shipping port story could be interesting.

    I’m only just correcting that mistake now.

      It took a while to capture my attention as Season 1 did, but, as you say, it would have been a mistake to drop the series. Every season is different, every season is brilliant.

    The Foley Artists/sound editors felt we needed to hear people chewing when it has no role in the larger story. There was no need for me to hear every mouth sound of someone eating on the Sopranos for example.
