Have you ever fallen out of love with a show, then back in love?

[(Anonymous)]

Has this ever happened to you? You love a show (or a book, or a movie, or whatever), then you start hating it and don't want to see it ever again, but then later fall back in love with it again?

Come to think of it, has this ever happened with a character or pairing or a particular episode or storyline either?

It's kind of embarrassing, but I was like that with Enterprise I got bored and stopped watching and then just after the show was over I found out that at the end they started pulling out all this crazy stuff: let's have adventures on Vulcan! Now we're in the mirror universe! Here are some generically-engineered humans like Kahn! etc. These episodes weren't so much really good as they were entertainingly cracky, but I put a lot of effort into catching up with re-runs, which involved setting the VCR because they were on at maybe 3:00 am or something where I lived.

I fall in and out of love with Grey's Anatomy ALL the time. Like, I loved the original cast a lot (even Izzie, at first), bu after everyone started dying and it got more ridiculous, I kind of tunned out and didn't start watching again until I heard about Arizona and Callie being cute together. And then I started again, and I didn't even mind the new interns, but stuff got ridiculous again so we're on the outs at the moment. I'll probably tune back in once things stabilize again, though, because I'm weak.

Not sure if this counts, exactly, but I fell in love with Doctor Who during the RTD era, fell out of love sometime during the Moffat era and stopped watching midway through season 6, then, a while later, went back to check out the Classic series completely on a whim, fell in love all over again, and am merrily slogging through it while I wait for the current showrunner to change.

I stopped watching Red vs Blue toward the beginning of season 9, then when season 10 came out I went back and caught up and wondered why the hell I had stopped.

Re: Have you ever fallen out of love with a show, then back in love?

[cloud_riven]

Because season 9 was pretty terrible anyways unless you like to blindly enjoy things imo :U

10 was pretty good though.

I don't think it's that unusual, but... Supernatural. I've watched it from the beginning, then abandoned it during season 3 due to life problems. Lots of years later, I marathoned season three-four-five in a month and then came season six and all my love just flew out of the window. I hated everything they did to the characters and that made me quite bitter (and all that fandom wank was disturbing), so I quitted. But then lately I've restarted the show and... this season is actually pretty good -for SPN standard- and I'm once again caring for the characters (bloody hell, when will the Winchester stop hurting?!). Now I'm craving more episodes because I've catched up and I want to know where they're headed!

Also, Buffy. I fell out of love with season seven, refused to rewatch the other seasons for long, long (sad) years, but then I saw an episode on TV and decided to rewatch it once again. I loved every single episode, this time. Ah, Buffy! <3

Re: Have you ever fallen out of love with a show, then back in love?

[thezmage]

Pretty much agreed with you on Supernatural. I have not and will not see most of season seven, but I do enjoy this season.

Oh god, all the time. Most startlingly with Naruto and Bleach. First I loved both equally, then started to HATE Bleach during the Karakura Town arc because there were too many characters and fights to follow, so I focused all my love on Naruto.

Then I started to hate Naruto (every single minor character getting a sob story flashback in the middle of their fight before dying, recycled motivations and plots, plot holes, too many characters, I started disliking the art), and stopped reading.

I glutted myself on FMA for awhile, then idled back over to Bleach after coming across a couple good fanfics. I realized it wasn't that bad, and actually I really like Kubo's art style and the characters, and fell in love with it again and voraciously caught up on everything I'd missed.

After catching up I started reading the new chapters each week, which eventually lead to starting up reading the new Naruto as well. For a couple months I just eye rolled all the time, but the last few chapters have been interesting and I think I might be coming around to it again.

This happens to me with Glee several times per episode.

Re: Have you ever fallen out of love with a show, then back in love?

[charming_stranger]

Me too. I think the only reason I'm still watching is because I watch it with a friend who is a lot more into the show than I am. I love the characters (well, most of them), but almost every episode has these ARGH WRITERS WHY moments.

The OC. I stopped watching sometime in the second season, skipped the third season completely. Came back once Marissa was dead and unexpectedly adored Taylor/Ryan and it's genuinely one of my favorite seasons of television ever.

I think House is the only show I loved, stopped watching, started watching again, loved (this was thanks largely to Anne Dudek and the Survivor-type storyline,) hated again, stopped watching again. I'm pretty good about pulling the plug on shows that piss me off or just plain bore me.

More mildly, I spent most of 30 Rock's third season sort of disliking Liz/Tina for reasons I could never put my finger on. I was terrified it would turn me off the show, which was one of my absolute favorites for the entirety of its run (other than the first few very shaky episodes) but just as mysteriously, come the fourth season, I loved Liz/Tina again just as much as ever, if not more than before.

Lost. After the show ended, I thought, "It was THAT great. What a waste of time!" But then I was bored one day and watched a random episode and was like, "OH MY GOSH! I forgot how good it was!"

The Sopranos. I watched the show years after it ended and I was really into it. But near the end of the fourth season I began feeling a little disinterested. I only got a few episodes into the sixth season before giving up on the show. I never finished it. But just a few weeks ago I caught an episode on HBO and I thought, "Damn, this show was really good, maybe I should finish it." So I probably will in the next month.

Re: Have you ever fallen out of love with a show, then back in love?

[citrinesunset]

I don't know if I've ever gone from hating a show to loving it again, but there have definitely been times when I started losing interest or becoming frustrated, only to get into it again.

I stopped watching Supernatural twice, first during season five and then during season six, only to start watching it again pretty randomly and getting sucked back in.

I lost interest in Fringe a couple times. Not to the point where I stopped watching, but to the point where I'd multitask or channel surf when it was on, and didn't mind if I missed some things. But then I got back into it more, and I grew to really love the plots in the other universe (even though I was initially uninterested in those versions of the characters).

Re: Have you ever fallen out of love with a show, then back in love?

[castle_anon]

I was actually this way with Castle. Because I loved the first three seasons, and it only took one episode (the first) of season four to have immediate Smallville "Secrets and Lies!!!" flashbacks that completely turned me off the show.

I literally did not watch another episode for three or four months. But I came back for the episode where Ryan was getting married, and for some reason, instead of just watching that episode, I went back and watched from where I left off.

And yeah, the episodes that were all about the Caskett secrets and lies were stupid and I hate them, the others were still awesome. But this was about the time that I started watching more for Ryan and Esposito than anything to do with Castle and Beckett or the cases. Though, I will say Castle and Beckett are growing on me again now that we're through all crap.
