Movies or series you’ve bailed out on❓

The TV series Shades of Blue with Jennifer Lopez. Was really liking it until the Ray Liotta character kissed the other guy. Turned it off right then and never watched another second of it.

Gave up on Supernatural as I just didn't care anymore. Same with most procedural cop shows, like Criminal Minds, CSI, Law and Orders. I usually get bored with full length series (like 22-24 ep) after about 5 seasons if not sooner.

I usually don't bail in the middle of a movie, but series that I couldn't finish
The Hangover
Transformers
Fast and the Furious
Underworld
Resident Evil

I have bailed on many series, but most I come back around on. I stepped away from Weeds at some point and didn't come back to finish it off for years. Seasons 4 through 6 or 7 were pretty bad but the final season I thought brought it back home. I've been saving the final season of Oz for over 10 years because I love it and don't want it to end. Dexter I dropped out and then caught back up, but the end was dissappointing. I stopped watching the Sopranos like 4 epsiodes into the 1st season and kept trying to go back, but the 1st season never hooked me. On my final attempt I forced myself through season 1 and finally really liked the remainder of the show, especially the last few episodes.

I'll pretty much watch any movie, no matter how awful, still amused and switching my gears into unintentional comedy mode. Scary movies are my kryptonite though. Sorry horror fan aficionados! I'm a fan of Xena: Warrior Princess, an action-adventure series with other ingredients thrown into the mix. Beginning in the fifth season, it went off the rails, becoming extremely fan servicey and bizarre in ways I am still trying to comprehend. By the sixth and final season, it was totally different from the hot-striking iron of the first 4 seasons, which concludes on a strong note.

A lot of actors, such as the heralded Alan Rickman, sign onto some real stinkers; the films they participate in not being the same movies they agreed to do in the draft stages. I remember what you said about Downton Abbey after the first 3 series, going in a different direction.

There are so many series I gave up on. With movies I lose interest in, at least I'll fast forward and try to watch a few key scenes.

I have a hard time watching a serie if the first 2 or 3 episodes don't grab my attention or if I can tell exactly what's going to happen. I find most series are way overrated on imdb or elsewhere. I gave up early on The Wire, West World, all of the superhero Netflix series, True Detective, Wentworth to name a few. The series I gave up much later are Vikings and The Walking Dead. The first when the vikings themselves stopped being interesting (I only cared about the Britons) and the second because I'm just sick of all the characters at this point and most episodes are just filler between season/mid-season premieres and finales.

I bailed out on Hannibal after 2 episodes because I didn't like the way it was made.

I bailed out on Lost after 2 or 2 1/2 seasons.

All in the Family jumped the shark when Mike and Gloria moved next door and I stopped watching.
