For me:
-The Expanse - The beginning was confusing AF and the politics didn’t make sense and seemed boring, so I quit. But then eventually after like a year or two, went to reddit and it was recommended again, so I just read some light spoilers and that helped me got through the first season. And then it has been an intriguing and thrilling journey.
Oh maybe I’ll try again. I was kinda turned off and stopped before the end of season one.
Yeah, season 1 is pretty much just setup for the real story in later seasons, and that story is pretty interesting.
