Look there are two kinds of people with breaking bad.

Those who loved it, and those who haven’t watched much or any of it.

And then there’s my wife, who hated Walter so much midway through she couldn’t watch it anymore.

That was my second watch so not a huge deal to me, but damn she could not stand him.

I’ve never managed to watch the whole series. There’s great bits but I get super uncomfortable with Walters bumbling, flagrant dishonesty with his wife and family. I get the same thing with a few different shows and I just don’t enjoy it. To the point where I find myself just switching the TV off mid way through a scene and going to do something else without even really thinking about it.

If I had to describe the sensation it would be “extreme toe-curling cringe”.

  I have the same problem with stuff. Can you, um… anti-suggest?
  
  Like suggest things I should avoid that hit those same tropes that made bb unwatchable for me…?

    My personal anti-suggestion is always the office. Too much cringe. I’ll watch compilations of Jim pranking Dwight on YouTube, but I can’t watch the show as a whole because of Michael.

    For sure, the cringe of the office is unbearable, and I have no idea who you named… other than knowing they were in the show…? I tried so hard to try to like it that sucks so hard to have people all like “no but give it time!” …bitch… I did give it time… I even tried the UK version and it’s the exact same thing with different people.
    
    Same with always sunny (sans UK version, I doubt that exists… it wouldn’t translate…)… I can’t get past the first impression, the gang gets racist… like ok, this clearly has nothing for me…?
    
    Maybe it does, but I’ll never honestly be able to get past the start to know (other than memes, I know many of those bits)
