I am not a teen.

    I may miss out on things, but it will only be because I wasn’t aware of it. I wouldn’t do something to arbitrarily limit my exposure to those things because someone has sex in it. Because I’m an adult.

      I watched an episode. I didn’t like it. I stopped and watched something else. I’m not sure what the big deal here is aside from you not accepting that I just wasn’t interested in something you like.

      Why should I keep watching a show I don’t like when there are show for me to watch that I do like just because it’s a popular show? I have never cared about what is popular and never will.

        Do what you want, I’m just pointing out why I think it’s silly.

        I also think giving up on a show that is considered one of the greatest of all time, after a single episode, is foolish. Regardless if the reason was sex or not.

        I guess I just have more interest in finding and watching classic films and shows. I also have enough free time to watch pretty much everything that I want (plus more).

          I’m going to upset you more by listing a bunch of other “greatest shows of all time” that I didn’t like and I wasted far much more time with them. Just taking a look at some ‘best shows of all time’ lists…

          Breaking Bad
          The Sopranos
          Westworld
          House of Cards
          The Wire
          Oz
          Squid Game
          BoJack Horseman
          Curb Your Enthusiasm
          Twin Peaks
          The Americans
          Succession
          Mad Men

          I don’t care if you or anyone else liked them. I didn’t. I clearly have different entertainment needs than the people who like the “greatest shows of all time.” I could go through each one and explain to you why I don’t like them or you could accept that what I consider entertaining does not often include the “greatest shows of all time.”

          I’m guessing some of the shows I consider to be the greatest of all time you haven’t even heard of, or if you had, you didn’t agree. Just looking at my hard drive and restricting it to American shows that are less well-known or less-recent:

          Mystery Science Theater 3000
          Fernwood2Night/America2Night
          Food Party
          Fishing with John
          The Adventures of Pete and Pete
          Northern Exposure
          Odyssey 5
          Wonderfalls
          The first live-action version of The Tick
          Police Squad
          It’s Garry Shandling’s Show

          I would watch any of those over the list of shows above. And, as I said, that’s only American shows. I can list so many more British ones. And then we get into animation…

            Who’s upset?

            And just FYI as soon as I saw that you were trying to do some “look at how different I am than everyone else” list, I stopped reading.

            Edit: Until I saw mst3k and had to see what the context for that was… LOLOL yeah I’ve never heard of any of those super obscure shows like The Adventures of Pete and Pete hahahaha. My guy, you know nothing about me.

            Btw we’re all super impressed though
