Is there anything you’re still following or doing fandom stuff for, despite not being really excited or interested anymore?

I watched both Supernatural and The Walking Dead for far longer than I should have. :(

I still keep a bit up to date with Genshin Impact, despite swearing off gacha games and not really playing it since 2023 and being frustrated with the direction the writing has taken, especially with my fave.

I feel this. I've been fed up with the writing in Genshin pretty much since they reached Natlan, with the exception of a tiny sidequest that featured Enjou under a different name. Parallogism didn't bother me, but it's the first written thing they've come up with that hasn't been completely substandard in what feels like a long time.

Who's your fave, that they keep shortchanging?

I kept watching both Death in Paradise and Father Brown for at least a whole series after telling myself I really should stop.

It’s hard with things that I watch with my roommates. It’s so easy to decide we should keep going with a show, even if neither of us are actually invested anymore, just because it takes less effort than finding something new we both agree to watch.

Doctor Who, but it’s on and off because I’ll be excited for about a season and then something will happen that will disappoint me.

OP from the secret,

Doctor Who is one of the shows I was talking about. For each of the last three doctors, I liked the sound of what they were planning and the look of the images and clips, so I was excited to watch — and every time, I didn’t click with what we actually got.

Doctor Who was my childhood from almost the start way back in the 60s. For that reason, it was hard to let go completely - yet the current showrunners have managed to make me nope out completely.

Its taken me the longest time to shake off Harry Potter. I think I've almost completely shoved it aside participation wise just recently.

The fandom and fanfiction keeps getting me back into that one.

Yeah lol .

Lots of fanworks to tempt a person. I might come back one day but. Mmn not now in the current climate.

I continued to watch House long after the enjoyment ended and it made me hate the show. I stuck with The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, and Doctor Who for too long, too. DW has eras though so I’ve become a pro at tuning in and out based on what I like about the show.

IMHO only the first three seasons of House were any good.

Same with me for House and also Bones. I have gone back since and rewatched early House seasons and enjoyed. With Bones I just couldn't because of how they ruined the characters by the end.

Foe a long time, I tried to keep up with L&O: SVU but by some point, I just couldn't handle it anymore.

I was ready to stop watching GoT by season 4 but convinced myself to see it through to the end and it was not worth it lol
At least I didn't bother with House of the Dragon.

I started watching Grey's Anatomy when I caught reruns on Lifetime or something, until I caught up to the original episodes (it was maybe 3 seasons in) and then I watched up to the first couple of episodes of season 13, but those annoyed me enough that I stopped watching. But somehow, my interest got reignited and I was watching again by that season finale. Then I quit a couple of episodes into season 18, just exasperated with the characters and the storylines, and I haven't watched it since and hopefully, I won't go back (it just concluded its 21st season and has been renewed for season 22).

But I keep finding myself drawn back to The Witcher fic. Not the fandom as a whole, but just the fic. Maybe it's because nothing new has really caught my eye since then, but I'll go months not thinking about it but then slowly be drawn back into trawling ao3 for new(or new to me) fic. I need to just let it go. The show is trash that I stopped watching after season 2, I don't know why I can't drop the fic.
