...by which, of course, I mean 'having invested some hours into' (ie, not having thought 'this is sh*te' within ten minutes of the opening gambit).
I seem to recall watching nine or ten episodes of Heroes before realising that I neither liked nor believed in it or indeed any of its characters. It was pretty poor stuff all round IIRC, so God knows why it took me so long. (Admittedly I do occasionally find myself put off by the sheer volume of these things and the massive amount of one's life required to invest in them.)
(I recently stopped watching Coronation Street after four decades - which has been immensely liberating. But yer open-ended dramas [oh all right then, 'soaps'] are a whole different 'kettle of', tbh.)
