I know this is a rant. But basically sometimes when I’m watching a show and I don’t like it. So I ask some people if it will get better. And the only thing they say is “Yeah bro just keep watching it, it has a big payoff”. Then I continue watching it and it’s never worth it.
So I think basically what I’m trying to say is: I don’t like watching shows which completely depend on some kind of outcome when there is no action at all, it’s very boring and most episodes are just “build up” to some kind of event which will happen. Why would I watch a show only to see the outcome when I’m not enjoying my experience at all? Just to find out “the mysterie”? Please enlighten me here
Here are some examples:
- Attack on Titan
- Silo
- Severence
