For me:
-The Expanse - The beginning was confusing AF and the politics didn’t make sense and seemed boring, so I quit. But then eventually after like a year or two, went to reddit and it was recommended again, so I just read some light spoilers and that helped me got through the first season. And then it has been an intriguing and thrilling journey.
I’ll probably get a lot of flak for this, but initially I did not get Community at all. I have low tolerance to cringe though, after I got through that I was all in
I felt the same way, but haven’t continued the show. I also have a low tolerance for cringe.
The cringe is gradually replaced with a more zany/ridiculous humor as the series goes on which vastly improves the comedy without losing the core themes of the show.
That’s good to hear, I might try to get back into it. I noped out of The Office shortly after Scott’s Tots as the humour just seemed to be getting more and more cringe.
