Are there any TV shows that you used to adore but no longer even enjoy?

Buffy is there for me now. I don't even want the DVDs in my lounge room any more. I want to move them all away, out of sight out of mind. I find it drags me back to a place I don't want to be. I am thankful for its part in my life but am so far over Buffy now. It just makes me cranky!

What about shows that your love has only grown for?

Firefly just keeps surprising me with how great it is. I think part of that is because I haven't rewatched it and picked it to pieces a billion times. I am cautious who I chat to about it, not letting annoying ideas infiltrate its beauty.

I think there's a lot of 90s shows that I think I want to rewatch but even just thinking back on it, I know that it actually wasn't as good as I remember it being. However I'm still tempted to do a Dawsons Creek rewatch, one day after supernatural!

I can't say that's happened to me so far, there are shows I used to love a lot more than I do now but I still care for all of them.

Charmed used to be my favourite show but now it would probably be number 10 or something like that.

That's really sad that you've gone off Buffy, is there nothing about it you still enjoy?

I appreciate it as a good bit of TV, its more the association to that time in my life for me. I used it heavily as an escape while in the midst of psych wards and medication. Now when I watch it, it drags me back there. I dont want to go back there haha.

I was surprised by Dawsons Creek @Death. I mean, its not anything thing it says its not, typical teen thing but I was surprised how watchable it was.


I would add Game of Thrones this this. I enjoy getting caught up the in fan hype but I have zero desire to rewatch. It was fun at the time but too graphic for me to feel the need to see it again.

This was actually harder than I thought...
There's plenty of shows that I have watched that I have no interest in watching again.
But that's not shows that I've loved.

Charmed might be one. But thinking about it I rather think it would be kinda fun to watch it again and see how it holds up. It's been a long time since last.
