Yes! I didn't know anything about this show when I watched it. I thought it was a reality show about improving some family restaurant lol. The character development is fantastic. |
| Dexter, Fargo |
|
Definitely Schitt's Creek and Ted Lasso.
|
| flea bag for me, I watched the first episode and could not get past the breaking the fourth wall thing. then tried again a few months later and it is absolutely my fav show ever |
|
Another vote for Schitts Creek. Hated the dumb name of it, tried watching one episode after everyone hyping it up.
Then went back to it like a year later - I was intrigued by it because they lived in a hotel, which I was doing at the time, and LOVED it. |

Not directly responsive, but one amazing show that had a terrible start to the first episode is Game of Thrones. I turned it off after 15 minutes twice before finally sticking with it, and I'm so glad I did.
The opening looonng scene is dark, confusing, and with no dialogue. |
ABSOLUTELY agree I'd add New Girl, too - I wasn't into it for the first season, and then it became one of my favorite shows |
I need to hear more about you living in a hotel! |
|
Better call Saul
Season one iffy, final season epic. The cinematography is such that you have to put your phone down because so much happens without dialogue. Same with Bosch |
I thought the same thing! So glad DH convinced me to watch it! |
| Friday Night Lights - it's not really about football |
| Deadloch |
| OP, why don't you tell us what you are fighting about and we will tell you our opinions. |

Do you want comedies then?
Veep Arrested Development Schitt's Creek Happy Endings The Good Place Parks and Recreation 30 Rock Dramas but not dark ones? Parenthood Friday Night Lights The West Wing The Good Wife |
I was the same and then I LOVED it and was devastated when it was over |
