Finally figured out the 2-episode test for new shows
I used to force myself through at least 5 episodes of a new series before deciding if I liked it. Now if the first 2 episodes don't hook me, I drop it immediately. Changed my approach last month after wasting 6 hours on a show that never got better. What's your rule for giving up on a show?

You ever notice how people do this with pretty much everything now? I'm the same way with trying new restaurants or hobbies these days if it doesn't click quick, I'm out. Life's too short to wait around for things to get good later, you know?

Life's too short to wait around for things to get good later" - wait, @schmidt.grant, are you saying you'd walk out of a restaurant mid-meal if it doesn't wow you in the first few bites?
