Tv is a well-liked pastime, to say the least, and there are extra choices than ever within the 2025 TV schedule because of conventional community choices, premium cable exhibits, and a seemingly fixed resupply of sequence on streaming platforms. Whereas there are some tasks that gained over quite a lot of followers throughout their time releasing new episodes, others have followers who want that they’d jumped ship loads earlier than they did. As a TV completionist who typically sticks with exhibits to the bitter finish, I’ve to say: I relate with among the hottest picks and have.
TV moments that made viewers wish to immediately give up turned a well-liked matter of dialog on Reddit not too long ago, and I used to be fairly unsurprised by among the exhibits that had been talked about over and again and again. Some had been slightly bit extra shocking, however plenty of legitimate factors are named.
The Strolling Useless gave the impression to be the preferred reply, with many citing Glenn’s brutal homicide, Glenn’s fake-out dying shortly earlier than he was murdered, Beth’s nonsensical finish, Carl getting bit by a zombie, and Negan by no means dying because the explanation why they give up. I can relate – Beth was the primary strike for me again within the day, adopted by Glenn diving below a dumpster, and I most likely ought to have give up earlier than I obtained to Glenn assembly Negan (and Lucille).
Many individuals introduced up Bobby’s dying on 9-1-1, which was one of the latest moments to have folks rage-quitting after which ranting about it on Reddit. Killing off Peter Krause’s main man was positively a stunning selection from the present again within the spring. Others channeled their rage from Bones, starring Emily Deschanel and David Boreanaz from 2005 – 2017. The dealing with of their relationship within the closing seasons had some detractors, whereas others introduced up that tragic twist for Sweets, performed by John Francis Daley.
I associated arduous to individuals who talked about Downton Abbey, as a result of I vividly keep in mind seeing Matthew’s dying in a Christmas particular after which not wanting to look at ever once more. Not even for Dame Maggie Smith’s one-liners! The 100 obtained extra mentions than I anticipated for a present that aired on The CW, with commenters citing Lexa’s demise. If I might give up when that occurred, I may have spared myself from seeing Bellamy’s ridiculous ending.
Orange is the New Black was talked about for a way Poussey was heartbreakingly killed, as had been most of the wildest Gray’s Anatomy twists from the previous 20 years. (Particular shout out from me to how the medical drama wrote out Alex Karev.) Arrow was chosen for that point that Felicity very all of a sudden regained the power to stroll after which instantly walked out on Oliver.
Recreation of Thrones viewers had no scarcity of moments from the ultimate couple of seasons to select from. Personally, I used to be already a lot too far in to give up by these final couple of seasons, however the closest I ever got here to giving up on Recreation of Thrones was when Sansa was married to after which brutally assaulted by Ramsay in Season 5. Lots of people talked about The Final of Us Season 2 for killing Joel, which was absolutely a large shock for anyone who hadn’t performed the video video games or been completely spoiled on his dying like I used to be.
Different exhibits that obtained particular consideration embrace Jail Break, Dexter, Sons of Anarchy, The League, and For All Mankind. On the plus aspect, studying about all of the horrible twists that turned viewers off of sure exhibits provides me a brand new appreciation for among the exhibits that I caught with and positively do not remorse. (That is does not imply I am going to ever rewatch The Strolling Useless previous Season 4, although.)
Even among the sequence that had been most ceaselessly talked about by commenters had been wonderful as much as a sure level, and plenty of may be discovered on varied streaming companies for anyone who desires to offer them one other probability… or simply rewatch your favourite episodes whereas pretending that sure moments by no means occur.
