When I tell people I’ve never seen the Lion King they are really baffled by that.
Game of thrones and ill be sure to keep it that way
Same, but I did read the books.
The Sopranos
This one. Not sure if I should watch it.
Watch the wire instead. Again if need be.
Many of them, but one show that people sometimes nag me about is “Friends”. Not going to watch it either, doesn’t seem even remotely worth my time.
Breaking Bad. I tried it and it’s just… too much.
It is a lot, but it’s rated high because it’s amazing. You could start with better call Saul, little slower and still as amazing.
I finished it. It was just OK for me.
Better call Saul (BcS) is better. Some parts may be boring but BcS made me think. Impressive writing.

The Wire. Although I’d really like to get around to it one day.
Just finished it last week. Season 1 was decent, 2 and 3 I was really wondering why everyone had talked up the show so much, but season 4 is where I felt it got real. Quality TV, I do recommend, but I do think it’s a bit overhyped.
I work in logistics and transportation so I always enjoyed season 2. Especially what McNulty does in episode 1.
It is an eye opening show in that you can see how each part of crime affects the community. Local political corruption, media corporatization, defunded inner city schools, international sex and drug trade, they all lead to the way society works for the rich and fuck everyone else raw.
The Godfather. It just never happened.
Also, small promotion for [email protected] for people who might be interested
Movie - Titanic. It has simply never appealed.
TV - any popular reality show. They are just not my thing.
I’m in the same boat as you for Titanic. That movie was so everywhere during it’s time & I just never felt the need to watch it. I feel like the modern equivalent would be someone not watching any of the marvel movies.
Episode 9. I saw Episode 7 at the movies and I was pretty happy walking out and it dawned on me that I’d seen it before.
I borrowed the DVD of episode 8 and pushed through.
I haven’t seen any super hero movie since the first spiderman with Tobey Maguire.
Well, no serious one. I’ve watched Deadpool and Kickass.
I bet you’d like The Boys if you like stuff like Kickass. It’s a show that takes the piss out of the concept of superheros but at the same time takes the concept very seriously and has some fantastic character-driven stories.
I watched the first season but couldn’t bring myself to watch the second. I just got the ick too much from it to have any enthusiasm to finish it
I hate to admit it because there’s no real reason but I have never seen The Godfather. I’ve gone almost 50 years and still haven’t sat down to watch it, or the sequels. I want to I just keep forgetting to.
Game of Thrones. I once started episode 1 but then had to interrupt and go somewhere and found it too boring to give it another try at first. Then the entire internet was full with with GoT and spoilers for it so I was too annoyed to try it again
I can’t think of too many I haven’t watched at all. Plenty I have seen a few episodes from and just didn’t get into. Although, many of these I should give another go because they, supposedly, got better later on. Such as The Expanse and Star Trek: Picard.
GOT I didn’t get into right away because, at the time it came out, I didn’t know shit about the book series and the ads made it look like another HBO show going at the time I was watching called Rome, but with a medieval Europe style instead of the Roman stuff so I was like “I don’t really want to watch two historical fictions at once when this one is already hella dense.” Had I known it was a fantasy, with magic and shit, I would have started it much sooner.
Most of I haven’t seen a single episode of is before my time. Like Dallas or My Mother the Car (was that one even popular or just really stupid? 🤔) Although I have never seen The Wire or 24 nor have I known a single person IRL who liked them.
I consume media like a fiend. Ever since I discovered piracy as a lad, there’s nothing out of reach to at least check out.
TV: Seinfeld, Breaking Bad, The Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother, Friends, NCIS, CSI, American Idol, The Voice, Survivor
Movies: the Avengers movies, Top Gun (old or new), Deadpool movies
These are just the ones I can remember people surprised about
Rick and Morty
Keeping Up with the Kardashians
I realized have never seen a single episode of 24.
