Most of those big American series from the late 2000s and 2010s that seem to be almost generation defining for many millenials. Shows like The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, The Office (US version), Community, Parks and Recreation, Dexter, Narcos, etc. I missed the boat on many of them initially because I wasn’t a big TV watcher back then, but even now I have zero interest. I suppose it’s one of those things where I’ve sat through so many boring conversations about these shows at various parties and gatherings over the years that I have actually come to detest them, despite never watching a single minute.
Yeah. More fractionation but also content is just not enticing. I feel like anything that isn’t massively crappy is considered alright and things that were meh are considered good and if something is sorta good the hype is like its the best thing ever. When something is rather good it seems like often it goes off the rails.

Im the opposite. Pretty much anything since the 20teens because I have sorta just dropped out of media stuff.
Is that anything to do with the enshittification of streaming services?
