When did you start to like this show?


This is an honest question looking for an honest response. Did you love this show from the start or is it one that grows on you? I finished the first season and I'm not sure if I should continue. I guess i would call this show "nice" but not sure why i should continue for 9 seasons. So is there a turning point that makes you fall in love with the series or is it perhaps not for me?

The only other British shows i've watched are Extras, The IT Crowd, The Office, and Coupling which i love but this doesn't seem to be in the same category.

Don't mention Lincoln! Something terrible happened to me on Lincoln's birthday

God, I'm in the same boat. I'm in the middle of the first season for the first time and there's absolutely NOTHING appealing to me about this show, the writing, the characters, or anything. Literally nothing. It sounds like it improves, so I'm going to keep going with it, but it's painful so far, and I was actually logged on here to see if someone had asked a question like the original poster's question.

I love most all things British, but this one? The appeal (so far) is lost on me (literally in every way).

I was fortunate to catch the first episode one Saturday night on my local PBS station when it was first shiwn in the USA,and loved it from the beginning.
