Popular series you tried but couldn't get into

[Neo Emolga]

I couldn't watch The Walking Dead. I really enjoyed the first season, but I got so ridiculously bored halfway through the second season that it became too much of a chore to watch, so I dropped it. That's the only show so far that I've actually dropped, which says a lot.

AGREED, I actually dropped out of watching the Walking Dead during the start of the fourth season and meant to come back to it, but never did.

The first season was great, but yeah, they're stuck on the farm for the entire second season and it does get very dry and drawn out. There were really only a few things that kept me interested enough to keep going, and it at least got me through the third season until I just felt like so little storyline progression was going on from each episode into the next.

Around the fourth season, I was forcing myself to watch it just to stay on top of it with everyone else... but gave up.

I was into Once Upon a Time for a while, but then it started to get really confusing around Season 2 (and at the rate they're adding new characters, it's gotten even more confusing...)

I feel like Once Upon a Time could have been so much better, because like you said, it started off really well, and then just got to be a muddled mess. That's another one that I dropped out around Season 2 and just didn't get back into it.

I tried to get into Sons of Anarchy and sort of couldn't.

Don't feel bad, I dropped out around, you guessed it, Season 2 (that seems to be a very common time for me to quit watching a series). That was mainly because I was watching it with my friend Tommy, he skipped ahead on his own and since he didn't want to watch the same episodes again, I just stopped watching it, also. Eventually he quit as well.

I think the problem there was it really didn't feel like that much was changing from episode to episode. It was pretty much the same issues and conflicts over and over and it did get very dry as time went on.
