My buddy told me to give The Wire 4 full episodes or bail, and I almost bailed at episode 3
My friend Dave kept bugging me to watch The Wire and I told him the first two episodes put me to sleep. He said give it 4 full episodes, if you still hate it I'll stop asking, so I did and by episode 4 I was hooked. Wound up finishing all 5 seasons in about 3 weeks, staying up till 2am on work nights like an idiot. Now I'm the one telling people the same thing and they never listen. What show did you almost quit right before it got good, and what episode finally pulled you in?
Breaking Bad was that show for me, gave up after two episodes and came back a year later. By the end of season one I was mad at myself for waiting so long.
