Breaking bad, soprano, dexter!
For the last two because it’s too slow paced! Breaking bad I believe having watched first season but couldn’t get into it.
I watch the last of us but a lot episodes are also slow paced and if it wasn’t for short seasons and not watching it alone probably I would have dropped it.
At least house of dragons! Would really want to like it as it’s my kind of show.

I recently started watching The Sopranos for the first time last year, and damn is it good. Some episodes are slow sure, but a lot of them are absolutely packed with story. So much so, I needed to take a couple minutes to process what I had just watched.
Also, there’s a very intense, pretty powerful scene like right in the middle of season 3 that kinda changes the entire dynamic of the show.

To me, The Sopranos has some of the most believable characters of any show I’ve ever seen. They’re all just so fucking stupid. But not in a bad writing kind of way. They’re as stupid as the average person and maybe a little more so. The show is full of miscommunication and unreliable gossip going around dozens of characters. It’s not witty dialog, it just feels real.
