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.

    Person of Interest. A friend recommended it and I bounced off the first season hard (s1 is kind of a crime-of-the-week thing which is very not my jam). Twice. On the third try (the friend was very persistent) I got to the second season and the character of the show changed radically and became about AI and shit and that was directly up my alley and I loved it.

      Loved this show. Don’t look up anything about Jim Caviezel until you finish the show, or it might become hard to relate to his character there. 😆

        Yeah, season 1 is pretty much just setup for the real story in later seasons, and that story is pretty interesting.
