Well, you asked for weird reasons, and I think this might be perceived as weird, but not for me!
Okay, I’m a girl right? so I like looking at guys on screen - good looking, muscular, manly guys. Even if they’re not good-looking or muscular, but intelligent or quirky, I still like em. I don’t feel the need to “relate” to some feisty woman in a man’s world or whatever. (*yawn - so overdone)
So, I stopped watching SVU, Castle, and Bones. No big deal - just couldn’t be bothered.
I stopped watching Lost when they went into the computer room and they had to press the space bar every X minutes. Knowing how slowly the show moved, I had absolutely no desire to sit there watching someone press a key.
Breaking bad: I saw only one episode. Walt’s partner recruited three of his friends, one of them got pinched. No idea what was going on, didn’t want to find out. I think in one scene he was hiding money too.
Walking Dead (started watching it again though): The episode where Rick got phantom phone calls had zero zombies. I don’t watch zombie shows unless there’s plenty of zombies.
Bones after the first season, because the actress who plays Angela can’t emote properly. No matter the situation, she has the same expression; a furrowed brow with her mouse hanging open. I guess that’s not too weird for me since I’ve stopped watching lots of shows because of one bad actor.
Star Trek: The Next Generation, because there were too many episodes of them transporting some ambassador or politician from one place to another. What are they, a taxi service? Also because the character #1 was played by an actor that reminded me more of a #2. Just a terrible actor, or character, or both. I do have to admit, however, that a little while ago I ended up watching particular episodes on Netflix that sounded interesting.
I tend to drop shows when they get stupid, but what I consider stupid might be considered weird. For example, I dropped Supernatural when one of the two brothers died and the other offered to sell his soul to get him back. This had happened previously with disastrous results, and it was idiotic that after a season of dealing with the fallout they were doing it again.
Similarly, I dropped Friends the second time Ross and Rachel broke up, which started the long-going “we were on a break!” gag. Ross, who in his entire life has spet with three women, finds someone to bang in less than six hours, thereby ruining a relationship he’s pined for since high school. That was just lame. I’ve caught clips and random eps since, but that really tainted the show for me - everything just seemed stupid.
Ripley’s “Believe it or not” hosted by Jack and Holly Palance used to be entertaining and educational, despite Holly’s dead delivery. Marie Osmond wasn’t much of an improvement, although Jack’s campiness made up for it. But when Dean Cain showed up, the program has deteriorated to nothing but grossness.
