View Full Version : Shows you didn't get into until they were on a few years.

Yeah, like a show that's in the 3rd or 4th season and you start watching regularly.

For me, I didn't start watching Scrubs until season 6 I think, then I downloaded all the seasons and watched them one after the other.

Now I'm getting into My Name is Earl, don't know what season that is in now.

A lot of shows really either because I didn't hear of them yet or just didn't get around to watching it.

Frasier.

I didn't watch it at all while it was still in production.

It's only within the last year that I started to get into it and really enjoy it.

I've been meaning to watch Rescue Me but haven't got around to it.

Hulu.com has a bunch of episodes for free.

Pretty much every sitcom I have ever watched. Don't think I've ever watched one from the start.

I just can't ever watch something on tv. Waiting a week to watch a new episode is not for me if I can't download at least the first 2 seasons there and then I don't tend to bother.

I usually start on a show after it has been going for at least a couple of seasons. I usually just don't have the patience to watch a show from week to week, I like to go through an entire season(s) in a couple of sittings. It's what I did to Lost, Heroes, My Name is Earl, The Office, The Wire and what I'm doing right now to House.

Trying to change that though with Flash Forward, as I watched the premiere and I thought it was pretty good. So maybe I can be patient and sit through an entire season for once. It also has the benifit of being on the same night as It's always sunny in Philly, a show I refuse to miss. So I'm already at the tv usually waiting.

Scrubs.

I had known of it for years but always thought it looked shit. Then about three years ago I watched one episode and instantly got hooked. I bought all the DVDs (up to that point) straight away.

I now need series six and seven but can't afford to buy them at the moment coz I need to save up money.

I went and bought the first 4 seasons of The Wire a couple of weeks back, up to the start of season 3 now. As for Gossip Girl, I'm up to date and downloading episodes as they air in the USofA

Scrubs and Arrested Development.

Took me some time to "get" those shows.

And the only reason I actually bothered to watch them is because they were on at like 3 am, I couldn't sleep and there was nothing else on. Now I can say I'm a fan.

Rescue Me.

Yeah pretty much everything, mainly because it can take ages to get those shows on tv over here, and when they do they get buried late and night, or are on a pay tv channel I'm not going to pay extra for.

So now thaks to TPWW, IMDB and torrents I can watch them commercial free anytime I want.

Seems like Scrubs is a favourite for not watching from the very start.
