Am I the only one who can't get into tv shows? I can handle a short 12 or 26 episode series, but once you get into shows with hour long episodes and several seasons, I begin to see it as too much of a commitment. I feel like I would get more out of a 2 or 3 hour film with good directing and acting and a level of artistry to it than even the best the TV show medium has to offer. I've tried watching Peaky Blinders and The Sopranos, and eventually I just burn out. I get to a point where even if the show itself is compelling, I get tired of watching it. It's just too damn long.

I hear ya. It’s why I’d also only stick to anime that are 26-40 episodes. I was enjoying The Sopranos though but the season where they’re in Italy I just lost all interest

What do you do for a living, and where do you see yourself in ten years? This isn't a setup for a punchline at your expense. I have some thoughts on this, similar to yours.

Sadly you're going to be on this earth for a long time so you can pace yourself and watch shows like people are meant to.

I really do not. I also don't play MMOs or games designed to waste your time forever/grindy games.

You crave for tight plot only.
If you want to get hooked on long shows you'll have to pay attention to dialogue writing, direction and minute details which gives joy.

Most series don't really go anywhere though and its just endless cliffhangers with no resolution

I get where you’re coming from, I forgot what season it was but there’s this part where they introduce all these characters that get out of jail and then pretty much all of them fucking die, but that was near the end of the show and I do think it gets a little rough until like half way there where they start progressing the plot again for the ending

Did this need a fucking thread on 4chan? Do you really need validation this bad? Get a fucking facebook, dipshit, nobody should give half of a fuck.

They are a bigger commitment but they have higher potential, that's why you have to be picky when it comes to long-form shows.

Sopranos took me a while to get into but I loved it
