I recently decide to watch Curb Your Enthusiasm and I only really started to enjoy the show after season four.

I feel like a lot of dramas like The Americans, Dark, and Narcos take me a little while to get invested but it’s typically only a season.

    Breaking Bad took me a good 6 episodes or so. It starts off so dark and unappealing.

    BSG (the remake) took me 3-4 episodes. Same deal.

    But my god, they’re both pure gold.

      Breaking Bad was so depressing. I couldn’t binge it - my husband and I could only do an episode at a time once every few days, with sitcoms immediately after or in between. We finished it and it was truly well done and deserves all its praise, but it was a slog just because of how dark it was.

        I made it through the first season but wasn’t enjoying it enough to continue after that. It seems extremely well executed but man is it bleak, made me sad more than anything

          Truly - every few episodes is really traumatizing. But it really is worth finishing, if you can handle it.

        Yeah, you definitely have to be in that right mood for it. I was so grossed out by the bathtub scene in episode 3 or 4 that I never got past that episode the first two tries. Every few episodes has something really traumatizing. But I took it really slow this time (only 2 episodes or so per day) and made my way through it. It definitely had an addictive feel and I found it impossible to predict, which was super intriguing.
