Three weeks after starting a new show, I finally get the hype
I kept seeing the same series recommended everywhere, so I queued it up on a Tuesday night and pushed through the first 2 episodes. By day 12 I had finished all 8 episodes in 3 sittings, and now I'm rewatching with my partner to catch the details I missed. What show took you past the 2 episode hump and made you instantly get why everyone was talking about it?
Started rewatching this old British spy show from the 90s after hearing people gush about it for years. The first episode was just a guy in a bad suit talking on a phone for what felt like an hour. Almost quit right there, but my buddy kept texting me about the twists. By episode 3 I was hooked, and by the end I had mapped out every mole and double agent on a napkin just to keep track. Now I'm trying to get my sister into it but she keeps falling asleep during the boring parts, which is exactly how I felt at first. Funny how the slow build is what makes the payoff actually land.
