Anon from one two comments up - Yes, this. I don't mind overreaching story arcs, but I find it exhausting when a show is nothing but. It's too intense to make for comfort watching. For that, I tend to turn on old favourites were I can pick a random episode or two of self-contained stories and then put the show away and leave with a sense of closure. No need to remember what exactly happened in the episodes before or wonder what will happen after. So many current shows are simply not suited for casual watching. With seasons that are one big tightly-woven story, watching one episode alone feels like watching only a section of a movie. You can do it, sure, but it's unsatisfying, always only a part of the whole. And highly serialized shows are almost always so intense. They are not suited for relaxing, casual watching. They are made to be events, create buzz and keep the watchers impatiently waiting for more.
