OP

[(Anonymous)]

For an example, I haven't seen Buffy the Vampire Slayer and other nerdy people are surprised or appalled. That's 144 episodes to go through.

Re: OP

[dreemyweird]

Oh, so I understood it the right way.

I'm with you, OP. Ain't nobody gonna make me watch anything longer than forty eps. Don't feel bad about it!

Re: OP

[queerwolf]

How did you arrive at 40, if I may ask? Seems kind of arbitrary. For some shows, that's not even two seasons.

Re: OP

[dreemyweird]

In my experience, this is roughly the number of episodes that allows a show to have an integral plotline and to keep all characters IC.

This is why I can make exceptions for screen versions of books (e.g. Poirot).

But it's largely arbitrary, of course.

Re: OP

[queerwolf]

Gotcha. Just wondering because some shows don't hit their stride until later on.

Re: OP

[diet_poison]

That's really weird. :/ and stupid.

Re: OP

[truxillogical]

Honestly, I just marathoned it on Netflix one month when I had a lot of projects to do that didn't require my full attention. Before that, my friend had the DVD set, and she would come over and a couple of us would watch an episode or two a week. But before that, I'd only seen piecemeal and I still called myself a fan.

It's worth checking out an episode or two. Not even the first episodes, sometimes, because, y'know, show finding its feet. But nothing wrong with watching something a bit and deciding you're not in it for the long haul.

Or just not watching something at all.
