    If I stop playing a video game for even a couple weeks I forget everything in terms of the mechanics, crafting, and inventory etc and lose interest.

    This happened to my wife and I with season 4 or Ozark. Fortunately I found a well made video on YouTube that summarized Seasons 1-3. I was amazed at how much stuff we had forgotten.

    My least favorite is when you go back to watch season 1, enjoy it, then watch the new season and you can’t even finish it due to how different it is

      Oof altered carbon got me that hard. The first season is so confusing and amazing. The second season… Well

      Loved the first volume of a new fantasy series. Wait eagerly for Volume II. Nope out halfway through because it stinks.

    That‘s not bad. You could also get excited about a show getting 2 new seasons and then you realize they fucking suck.

      Anyone else remember Dexter’s Lab getting a new season that was basically just a prototype for the even worse Johnny Test?

    Lately I’ve just been rewatching the final episode of the previous season before starting a new one. I’m a little lost in that episode but by the end I’m following along, and it’s usually an exciting finale episode that gets me excited to watch the next episode.

      Babylon 5 had the right idea. Do an animated version; you can keep all the original actors and have much wilder special effects

    Doesn’t happen if you only watch obscure >decade old single season animes

    Never mind the fact that I’ll never find another person who watched and liked From the New World, or Canaan, or Flip Flappers

      Personally I see it as a selling feature knowing that an anime is only going to be one or two cour. I don’t like to watch series that never end so it’s nice knowing that the story has a conclusion.

        Who said that these anime ends after one season? Many times, they have a cliff hanger ending because the producers were hoping to get a second season or they are a faithful adaptation of the first part of a manga that is only half finished.

      Canaan was the shit! Try finding fans of Bubblegum Crisis, Noir, Eatman, or Bakumatsu Kikensetsu Irohanihoheto; 90s anime kids don’t get together and have rewatch parties lol

          You’re in for a treat with Bubblegum Crisis. I’d also recommend Nyan Koi, Evangelion (totally not niche but why not), and for a recent anime that has a 90s feel, Megalo Box. I’m a trove of anime suggestions lol

      Don’t get my fucking hopes up! If only they would bring this back.

      At least Matthew Holness had cameos in Toast of London and Toast of Tinseltown.

    This is presently happening with me for invincible. Season two just started and I have no idea what happened to get us where we are.

    But Dr. Who is returning, so I’m rewatching the entire series. Just got to Matt Smith…
