Fandoms I'm No Longer In | Top 5 Wednesday

[@Pohnpeibabii]

Amen to everything you said about Once Upon a Time

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

[@michaelspitz9099]

After the Frozen season, I lost interest in Once and I was addicted to it from the beginning!

[@annierichter8250]

I started losing interest during the Forzen season but the Dark Emma season was the woooooorst... at least that's what I though until the underworld season and that was even worse. My issue is Rumpelstiltskin is my favorite character and Rumbelle is my OTP and it's just been one thing after another since the Frozen season =/ Sometimes I re-watch skindeep to remind myself why they're my OTP because they've been getting awful lately.

[@wherestephaniereads580]

I lost interest in Once too. When it started it was way more interesting but when the Frozen season hit it got annoying. I felt like the show was throwing random villains all at once. Rumplestiltskin was a bad ass at the start but when Belle dumped him for screwing things up things went downhill. I was like I have better shows to watch.

[@mythologiefan]

I really liked the Frozen arc. The point with Once for me is this: ever since the arcs were introduced (which they obviously did to keep the stuff interesting) every season is half good and half bad. I didn't really like the way the neverland arc was underdeveloped. I find Selena being a regular incredibly annoying, not to mention the rediculous queens of darkness arc. I watched Once up until last christmas and didn't catch up after. I heard it isn't renewed or something? This is the final season... If that's the case, I will watch the final arc, otherwise I'll leave it behind. I love Grimm though, and that show is ending too, but I don't mind, because it is still amazing and what better way to stop a show then amazing?

[@wherestephaniereads580]

I know the Queens of Darkness made the show look like they ran out of ideas and added a bunch of filler content.

[@mythologiefan]

Most of it became sort of filler. Like the heroes and villains episodes (with the switched up endings) and the overly badly episodes where Jennifer Morrisen acts a bad Swan. She just can't act evil....

[@heathenpotato]

"It's really trashy, but I love it" Me about Supernatural. I wish I could quit you destiel

[@thesonicmaestro]

You ever just have a fandom ship you love so much, that even though you've abandoned the show, the fic community are still soo sooooo good, you keep coming back? XD That's me with Teen wolf fandom hahaha

[@87idk]

rc_kunoichi mate I was just about to comment something along those lines, dropped the teen wolf fandom around season 3B but damn that one ship, I'm down for.

[@KaterynaM_UA]

it's not even only Sterek. Other pairings too! This fandom has crazy talented community even if the show does not deserve it.

[@sablebeauty]

rc_kunoichi f teen wolf fandom lol. It's soooooo badddddd. I stopped watching the show just because fandom made it unenjoyable for me. I mean, the show kinda took a drive but fandom sucks. Still ship my ships outside of fandom though!

[@thesonicmaestro]

Катя Мазурчак the fic community there is really great and supportive. I've read a lot of teen wolf fics (ok mostly sterek) and realized later these were some big name fans that wrote for other fandoms Ive been in.

[@annierichter8250]

OUAT is exhausting. I loved Rumpelstiltskin and Rumbelle so much but I just can't anymore.

[@sadafs8866]

Annie Knabb Same

[@jackiesliterarycorner]

I'm the same. I still write fan fiction, but I have recently taken a break from writing it. I might start publishing on AO3.

[@AliCatWrites]

I am so with you on Grey's. I couldn't anymore. It was just too much. And what you did with Skins, that's exactly what I did with Being Human, the UK version. I'm a stupid big Aidan Turner fan and I had been spoiled for what happened on social media but watched right up until the big sad happened because I couldn't bring myself to watch any further. I LOVED that show, but just couldn't watch it die.

[@jeweld.282]

I was a HUGE BBC Sherlock fan. I bought t shirts and book marks and phone covers and I waited for about three years for the latest season and I was so so excited and... it was horrendous. Every lovely thing about the show was dead. It was like a badly written soap and Benedict Cummberbatch and Martin Freeman were just along for the horrifying ride.

[@xxps3xx100]

jewel DiSalvo I feel the same season 4 was terrible I couldn't stand it

[@kamilee4123]

jewel DiSalvo I still haven't seen Season 4. Honestly I got bored waiting for seasons for so long, and the "Lol this fandom is so crazy!!!11!!!" thing got old. I have also realized the show probably wasn't that good to begin with (or at least I never enjoyed it as much as I thought I did).

[@jeweld.282]

yeah I agree. I mean... I get that Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch are highly sought after actors and have a lot of stuff so film but I still feel like to wait three years to film another season probably disconnected the writer's from the roots of what the show was... and that's when the whole thing started to get weird. Me, I wasn't in it for the mystery. I was in love with the show because of the obvious on- screen chemistry between Martin and Benedict. I thought the subtext in their intense friendship was insanely well acted and it had me coming back for more. But the fourth season, ( and dare I say some of the third? That wedding episode tho geez) got rid of all of that in favor of gimmicky weird dream scapes and "omigosh how can we make our viewers never ever able to guess our mystery so much so that the mystery makes no sense whatsoever!" I mean, if the characters are dead, the show is dead. Who cares if I couldn't guess your mystery. (as you can see I'm still pretty salty about the whole thing lol)

[@jeweld.282]

right?! Like a secret psychotic sister what the heck was that

[@xxps3xx100]

I like Marks writing but I can't stand Steve's

[@PossiblyLiterate]

You seriously had me CRACKING UP. Every time you'd go "I had to stop. It was just to much. I just couldn't"--I feel that on a spiritual level.

[@tendswiththepalm]

I abandoned the Grey's Anatomy fandom about the same place you did ... but then I picked it back up last month and watched three seasons in a week ... oops

[@veronicavolumes]

I'm so with you on TVD! I was sooo into that fandom when I was in high school, but the ship wars were soooo bad and I wasn't loving the plot anymore toward the end. I didn't watch the last season, but wow that show brings back so many memories haha

[@rachiecakie]

I never could do The Vampire Diaries, but I am a piece of The Originals trash (The Originals is the spinoff of The Vampire Diaries, but it's all about Klaus, in case you didn't know). I still go hard for that show as a whole, but the latest season just kinda...fell short for me. I feel what you're saying in this video. And it sucks because none of my friends watch it so I have no one to talk about it with! P.S. I just started following you this morning and I have no idea what I've been doing with my life up until now. I LOVE YOU. SO FUCKING MUCH.

[@BookLionQueen]

Same about the Vampire Diaries. The rolling around on the floor. They filmed that where I live. I was there when they filmed the last episode. It was my birthday and I was eating at mystic grill. I stopped at season 5 but I still enjoy it.

[@minieggs93]

aw man, i feel you on the grey's anatomy front. as much as a i love some of the remaining original characters (bailey especially), i just can't force myself to remain interested in what's happening when others (like cristina) have left. for me, supernatural was the fandom i was a part of longest, and the one i felt most involved in. but i had to leave during season 6 because it just wasn't the same anymore :(

[@amysterling9219]

I loveeeee when you start talking about ships or fandoms or anything like that you get so fangirly and it's so funny! 😂😂 I love your videos!

[@SarahEllis]

I watched through season 5 of TVD live and then I most recently binged the entire series because I hadn't watched the last couple seasons. I honestly wish I had not watched the last few seasons. It was so bad :/

[@rdc1893]

I got over TVD when everyone started dying and coming back to life.

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

Sarah Ellis it's so sad to see that show fall from grace

[@SilviaKay]

"It's good self-care" - love that! XD

[@shazanamansoor3565]

I love how you get passionate about things - fandom and books both! Reminds me of when I get my own obsessions with things 😬 one of the main fandoms I remember abandoning is Teen Wolf. I went on a real binge fest up to 6A (it was a dark black hole!) , then the rest of the episodes hadn't been up on Netflix so I thought I was done with it. Little did I know I had to watch 6B too! To this day I have not seen the last episode of this show 🙈 Currently I'm on the brink of entering the Shadowhunter world fandom since I watched the movie and got a little obsessed with Jamie Campbell Bower!

[@isadoramarchioni8934]

skins UK gen 2 (the one with effy/cook/freddie) is soooo your aesthetic tho, i'm definitely not surprised to see it here lmao cook/effy is legit THE BEST pairing out there tho i was so obsessed with them!

[@allimari]

Honestly, could you drop a makeup tutorial? Your makeup always looks amazing!!!

[@notsuohhannah]

I'm currently binge watching Grey's Anatomy, now on season 6. I've been spoiled on who leaves/dies. I'm internally debating whether or not to stop after Cristina leaves. I was only able to get through one season of Once Upon a Time.

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I watched the first few episodes of Once and just stopped after awhile :(

[@wingedvictory72]

sam you are literally my spirit animal. I FEEL ALL THE SAME FEELS.

[@Fela_rof]

Heroes was my very first fandom and really love to rewatch some episodes form time to time because it feels like meeting a bunch of old friends :D Nowadays there's no series fandom I'm part of. Book fandoms, hell yes! But there aren't any tv series that catch my attention that much lately.

[@xreadingsolacex]

When you were talking about SKINS 😭😭😭 i left after the Cook, Effie season too. And yes, the Charming family is so nauseating - I'm still watching it but I can't stand that family 😒. Omg GA I'm still so invested in it I'm like I should stop but I can't.

[@metamorphoses8928]

Waah I'll need to do that video (when I have a channel 😂) , it speaks to me at such high levels!

[@BookswithBrittany]

You are just literally my fav. Binge watching your channel 👌🏼

[@ChrislynReadsWithPugs]

I about died when you said you were rolling around on the floor with feelings for The Vampire Diaries!!! Lol!!! That is so me during Game Of Thrones!!! However I'm still in that fandom!!! Great Video! Love how passionate you are talking about all these shows! I gave up on OUAT as well :(

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

Kre8urStage haha thank you

[@TheBookLife]

Ahhhh Grey's. I remember us having like a two hour Voxer over Grey's and our frustrations and loves for it haha.

[@katieha12345]

Omg Skins!! FYI there's 2 series per 'generation', most people in the UK seem to love 1st gen the most but I looove 2nd gen. When you first talked about the ending I was like 'what...?' cos I had obv blocked that out but yeah tbh you did the right thing, the ending sucked. 3rd gen isn't really worth the time, it's alright, but I would recommend watching the most recent series, it's quite short and each episode centres around one character years after their original 'gen'. There's an Effie ep and a Cooke one and they're great.

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

2nd generation is totally where it's at. I'm glad I watched first generation but nothing compares to second and I heard so many bad things about 3rd that I never attempted it.

[@clarecarter9172]

Dude I so agree with you about Once Upon a Time--I loved the first season SO MUCH and then I felt like they were just doing the same thing over and over again. *tears*

[@AmberMcManus]

Dawson's creek. I love that you are a fan of that show. I can't even tell you how many times I've watched the entire series.

[@lysswicks5339]

I had to ollie out of OUAT fandom as well. And whilst I haven't left the fandom exactly, I no longer interact publicly with the 100 fandom anymore. Talk about a shitstorm

[@apszaaa]

i left grey's anatomy and vampire diaries for the same reasons you did, i also saved myself from teen wolf bc it was a very toxic fandom like tvd so yeah, its hard to leave fandoms but you gotta do whats best for your health and like you said, adulthood takes all of our time so we have to spend our time wisely, great video!!

[@carolinethereader]

I think I'm done with The Walking Dead TV show fandom. I used to love it but as it's gone on I think the quality has decreased and I kind of don't care anymore which makes me really sad. I'm still a massive fan of the comics though so wooh!

[@smartlikewoah]

Me too. I'm sorry but I actually find it boring as hell lol. I loved it but I got less and less interested in it as each season passed. People think i'm crazy but I don't think it's as amazing as people claim.

[@agameofpages9818]

A bit late to this convo, but I too was once OBSESSED with UK Skins. It was my absolute life, that consumed most of my high school days. It aired in Australia at like 11pm or something crazy, on a school night, and I would stay up, watch it, cry, scurry off to bed and mull it over the whole next day in class. It all began with Cassie and Sid, man they were my life. I gave it all cold turkey up after S3 - I couldn't stand the heartbreak any more. I'm still traumatised from our poor Freddy's last ep.

[@helena8359]

Agree 100% with you on OUAT! It started out great and it kept getting worse and worse, and after the first episode of this season I said 'I'M DONE' because it was sooooooooo bad. I also hated the Charming and Henry, hahahha, they were too cheesy for me. By the way, Buffy was also my first 'fandom'! (If I can even call it that. I don't know, I just used to go on the internet and search for all the pictures and videos I could about the show, mainly about Spuffy, hahahah).

[@MysteriesofWriting]

I've pretty much been a part of the Once fandom right up till now and they've made it more frustrating. You left while it was still bearable. They're about to repeat the entire thing but as Henry being the main person since Emma is leaving (and the entire gang is leaving as well - just about). Basically, they are milking a cow that has no more milk left. I'm sure this season they're working on is going to make me abandon the fandom. Awesome video! :D

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

ugh nooooo

[@Eridi4na]

I stopped watching Supernatural about 5 years ago and I'm still sad about it. Not only did it suck me in right from the start for 6 seasons, but it was also the first show I watched in English. It started the whole new era for me, because after that I also started reading books in English (I'm Russian). It will always be special for me because of that.

[@renplatts]

I went through a real fandom kick in my mid teens, but have since stopped watching almost all of it? Primary culprit is Supernatural which I was hardcore obsessed with for I wanna say 6 months? I even met some of the cast interstate and bought some ridiculously overpriced merch which I've only just managed to sell 4 years on. But alas, the show grew repetitive and I become more aware of some of the more troubling aspects of it and its cast and eventually decided it was time to say goodbye. OUAT is another, though I wasn't nearly as invested. I watched it when I could but repetitiveness struck again! Also, The Walking Dead. They killed off all my faves and I just wasn't invested anymore. Stopped season before last and I am so glad I did, the relief at not having to guilt watch episodes because I feel like I have to is true freedom.

[@juliannaakuchie7215]

"I had to not." 😂😂😂 This is a perfect expression for so much of my life.

[@devonmunn5728]

I actually watched OUAT when it first aired, I got up to seven episodes and randomly quit, I am gonna eventually catch up (I plan to watch a shit ton of tv shows, more than once I might add)

[@LaHormiguitaLectora]

Vampire Diaries... SAME HERE! Great video, I loved it!

[@danielleroz1458]

Same with skins for me as well Sam! The Freddie, Cook and Effy triangle.... I can't .

[@JenniferPappas92]

Omg I checked out of the vampire diaries so long ago. I just couldn't. If you watched it live there were so many long breaks btwn new episodes that I always forgot what happened. Still not ready to give up on OUaT though...

[@16AprilL]

I'm one of those fans that once I start a show and love it, I HAVE to finish the series. I don't know if its nostalgia or what but I just have to follow through. But this year I have made some cuts. I got sick of the flashbacks in Arrow so much that I just had to let it go this season. And Once was just boring and I gave up after the first couple episodes this season. I also accidentally dropped The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow but I'm hoping to play catch up someday.

[@Neverrgreen]

I stopped once upon a time after the first season though I really want to see the hook stuff. Grey's for me is weirdly still watching but not hating or enjoying?

[@ms.razzledazzlepants3819]

ive been watching once upon since season one and i think until this last season i was watching more because i felt like i owned the show that like i was in for the long haul. but this last season was soooo goood

[@ReadandFindOut]

Ooooh, I had to jump ship on OUaT too. I think I was either mid season or at the end of the whole King Arthur bit, and it was just getting ridiculous.

[@booksith5313]

Totally with you on Vampire Diaries. Delena is my OTP and yeah just thinking about it gets me super emotional. I jumped ship after season 6 though. It all just went downhill for me from there. I did watch the last ten minutes of the series finale to see how it all wrapped up haha and that was enough for me. I also wouldn't consider myself in the OUAT fandom anymore even though I recently caught up. Like you said, the same thing happens so nothing really happens.

[@katiebooks9567]

I'm so late to this video but UGH DENNY WILL ALWAYS BREAK MY HEART AND NO ONE ELSE UNDERSTANDS. Also the exact same thing happened to me with vampire diaries too. Except I gave up in the middle of season 4 because my two otps crashed and burned lol.

[@steakuccino]

Oh, damn, I totally feel you on TVD's ship wars. I couldn't really participate in fandom because I was so exhausted by the whole Stelena vs. Delena thing. I loved it and I had SO MANY SHIPS, even ones that competed with each other in my little shipping heart but ugh. It was just too much. I also had to stop with The Walking Dead. I just had no faith in the story to move in a good direction and I was bored with it. I was disappointed that it got bad enough for me to give it up.

[@TOAGamer1]

OUAT plot: I did something way in the past that somehow catches up to me. LITERALLY every season.

[@orangesoda199]

I relate to the TVD feelings SO HARD! I stopped in the middle of Season 5 too :/

[@BrekkeEl]

I never watched the Vampire Diaries, but it was filmed in and around my hometown. So I have friends who've been in the show, so I couldn't really suspend disbelief.

[@MeredithRules]

I miss the days when Once was just a parade of pretty boys (miss you forever, Mad Hatter).

[@capricioushelen]

I quit Superwholock a good while back. I still watch Doctor Who on a casual basis but I do NOT have time for all of that other nonsense :') I feel like the quality of all of them has declined so hard, sigh

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

capricioushelen aw man Superwholock used to be a fandom juggernaut and now it's dying

[@littleloezie]

I stopped watching Once upon a time just before they got together. I was so sick of nothing really happening in this show, I had to stop.

[@wherestephaniereads580]

I agree. I also felt like the show started throwing random problems in or just random villains for the heck of it. And how many times Red Queen has to decide whether she wants to be good or be bad. She goes back and forth a lot.

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

Littleloezie D I can't believe a show where nothing happens is still so popular

[@celuchiha]

I am glad I am not the only one who thinks watching shows as their air is exhausting as hell

[@Elosabeth]

YES!!!! I love this. I feel all of this and it's funny cause OUAT, Vampire Diaries and Greys are all the ones I have abandoned too?! Vamp Diaries I lasted till season 6 and then Elena left and I was like lol what no. Greys I also left when Cristina left cause I was so not there for that at all. And Once I left like Frozen season too - but I might go back to it? Not sure. I also abandoned Doctor Who, which was a hard decision, but I just couldn't deal with the characters plot lines anymore (season 6 I gave up).

[@Amanda_the_Librarian]

I don't watch much TV but what comes to mind is Supernatural. I was obsessed with the show and I sadly don't watch it anymore. I keep thinking I will marathon the entire series on Netflix but school and reading take up most of my time

[@jolien-fictionalreader]

I did the same with Once Upon a Time! I do want to catch up one day, but it's just too much at times. I find that drama shows can at times be too intense, and then I can't watch it anymore! As far as shows and fandoms that I've abandoned, I think Supernatural would definitely be on my list. I used to adore that show, and now I'm several seasons behind. The same goes for Arrow. It's just all so intense, and I don't have time for that level of drama right now :) I'm also forever going to pretend to have only watched a few seasons of True Blood, because I can't deal with the level of the last ones. No.

[@tarareads23]

True Blood, Sleepy Hollow, Grey's Anatomy - pretty much for the same reasons. But I might catch it once in a while with my sis-in-law. And Bailey is the only fav left. She, George, and Cristina are my forever favs.

[@savannagood1617]

KLAUS AND CAROLINE WAS MY OTP!❤️❤️❤️

[@katicastevanovic7338]

There is this huge craze about TVD in my town right now and everyone's watching and I am just like... I don't want to do that, mama!

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

LOL

[@elizabethcastaneda5588]

years later and I'm still obsessed with skins! But I understand the show can be so heartbreaking, one of my fav love triangles for sure=)

[@sonnymolly4586]

I stopped watching Doctor Who a few episodes in the season with the new doctor, it had been annoying me for a while and I was busy with school. I haven't caught up and I don't know if I will, but when Steven Moffat leaves I'm gonna be all up in that shit again so fast

[@sandyreadsalot]

Although I do keep up with Grey's Anatomy, I agree with what you said about it. It has gone on for so long and I'm really tired with all the different relationship drama.

[@xThisCityisatWarx]

I was totally the same way with Once, the only difference I made it to right after Frozen then gave up

[@jackiesliterarycorner]

Tell me something, my friend mentioned in one of my FB groups I'm in she could totally see Rumple in the POTC universe and as a pirate, but she got bitch at for it. I get historically that pirates were bad guys, and we're not Hook fans, but I liked my friend's idea. What do you think?

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

I can see Rumple basically anywhere because the actor that plays him is amazing.

[@jackiesliterarycorner]

Lol So true. I fell him just watching his first scene. Have you seen the actor's other works? Stargate Universe is really great. He kind of plays a character like Rumple as far as personality.

[@youngkyunhyun9200]

For me I abandoned Once Upon A Time too, after the Frozen season. I also left the Supernatural fandom which was probably my first fandom and I also left Vampire Diaries after season three (mainly because I forgot to catch up on it). American Horror Story is another one I left because the seasons got boring. I also left Glee, because it jumped the shark after Cory Monteith died.

[@stubbornlybookish5555]

Literally the same with the Vampire Diaries, except I made it one more season. I may visit it again but I don't know.

[@thejordanjournals]

I 200% agree with you and Once Upon A Time. I haven't watched any of this current season because I feel like it's always the same plot. They have to defeat a curse. Then, Jennifer Morrison announced she was leaving the show now. No. I'm done. The Vampire Diaries series finale was emotionally exhausting. I sobbed like I'd just lost the love of my life for a solid 20 minutes at the end of the episode. Too much. Too many feels.

[@thejordanjournals]

#Dalenaforlife

[@mariamoraru3431]

I also ude to be a huge fan of Grey's Anatomy and TVD but they were just soooo long and I have a bit of a commitment issue..

[@JanaMorgen]

This is so random but I was also super into the Vampire Diaries! but at the time I had an abusive partner and I'd have to lie to them saying I was going to bed so I could get off the phone and watch an episode before I had to go to bed in a lot of ways vampire diaries really helped me get to a point where I could be like look I just want to watch tv without someone being angry

[@booksvsmovies]

I used to love Superwholock, It was my first online fandom and I spent so much time watching integrating nine the community and getting into perry disputes over headcannons and ships. One day I just couldn't any more, the whole community was just too toxic. There comes a point in your life where you just can't take the constant fighting and having to defend your opinion on such insignificant things. I took a break from Tumblr around a year ago for six months and it made me realise how awful the community made me feel on a daily basis. I'm so glad I've moved on from that pert of my life and really in gage with fandom in ways that both bring me joy but help further my enjoyment of the shows instead of just ruining them for me like the Superwholock fandom did.

[@alysamorley3570]

I used to love UK Skins so much. It kinda broke my heart but in a good way? I also feel like OUAT has gone downhill. I can't keep track of what's happening anymore, and I feel like it's gotten redundant. It's gone on for so long that I'm just like, "what's even going on anymore?" And now I'm so far behind that it isn't worth trying to catch up.

[@fursecela]

if you liked skins you should really try skam. it s a norwegian tv series but you can find it with english subtiles and it s similar with skins in format and depicts very interesting topics about identity, religion, relationships and stuff like that. i think you would really enjoy it !

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

I've heard about that one!

[@kariboheme]

Omg this video was everythinggggg. The Vampire Diaries feels were so real. I shipped Stelena hardcore BUT there were some Delena scenes where I have to admit that my heart was like in my hands for. Honestly I just wanted the Salvatore Brothers to be happy and when I realized the show was headed towards soooo much sibling rivalry and I couldn't see an endgame, I had to just be out. Saved myself 😂😂😂

[@sarahpslytherin3315]

I specifically remember watching the show when Bonnie and Damon "died". I lost my shit. I cried so hard. I have never been and never will be so emotionally invested in anything as I was with Delena.

[@piepiepapaya]

I haven't completely abandoned game of thrones and I still love it but it got really tiring and exhausting to watch (which I guess is the point) so I probably will go back to it I just needed to take a break in season 5.

[@bookpedia]

I abandoned OUAT after the frozen season, but i kept keeping up with the reviews and promotional pictures. Hook and Emma really did get married in a musical episode ( amanzing songs! ), but almost all of the main characters' actors are leaving the show, so i think season 7 will be last, already without emma, hook, the charmings and etc

[@lilymcallister9751]

Sleepy Hollow, Grim, and TWD. I still am in Supernatural and GOT and ZOMG THE MAGICIANS!! That last one just tears my soul apart with ships. I can ship any of them with any of them and I love that. Although I usually end up shipping Margo and Penny with ME in this beautiful whatever relationship where Elliot sometimes drops by for drinks and... ok. I'll stfu now. But yea. The Magicians.

[@squeezie_b8895]

OUAT is one of those shows that make me genuinely annoyed when I ruminate on it for more than a second. Every time a good show gets cancelled I think, "and Once Upon A Time is still airing..."

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

LOL SAME

[@renmaree]

I used to watch so many TV shows and then one day in 2015 I just sort of stopped watching them all. The Vampire Diaries, Supernatural, Once Upon A Time, Castle, Bones, Arrow, The Flash, Criminal Minds and so many others. I only didn't give up on more of them due to the fact that they were off season (I think) at the time: The 100, Teen Wolf, Game of Thrones, Doctor Who.

[@Nataliecj]

Oh Grey's Anatomy...I don't think I'll ever get over how that show ended up. Grey's Anatomy was the first show I ever binge-watched, I remember having the first three seasons on boxset and once I finished Season 3 I went right back to the beginning. I stayed up until 3 in the morning so many nights watching it. I have never shipped a TV show couple as much as I ship MerDer. I stopped at about S9 (or maybe the beginning of S10) because I could sense they were about to kill off one of my favourite interns and I was just DONE. And then I heard Sandra Oh was leaving and I heard about you-know-who dying and I just can't watch that ever. I am kind of intrigued by April and Jackson and I would consider watching it for them but I think I was spoiled for them losing a baby or something and I was like "ok nvm". There are no words for how much I loved Grey's Anatomy so the fact that it has gone so awry and has destroyed basically everything I loved about it is really sad. I remember seeing a random newer episode and it was unrecognizable. Private Practice stated quite good for its whole run but it had the good sense to end at six seasons. Another one that hurts is Downton Abbey. The death that happens at the end of S3? NOPE. I was so mad I stopped watching. I stopped watching One Tree Hill when Lucas and Peyton left, and I stopped watching TVD when it was announced that Nina Dobrev was leaving because seriously, how could they do the show without Elena? I wish TV shows just stopped before they start going downhill because they all end up getting so bad. The only shows that stayed good the whole run imo are Friends, Chuck and Malcolm in the Middle.

I've totally gone off Once. I haven't watched the last few episodes of the latest season and I'm not sure I will. And I don't know how I feel about the new season without so many of the main characters. I recently rewatched the first two seasons of Grey's Anatomy and it was so good , probably because of my cutie pie George O'Malley still being in it.

This is such a good topic! Also you look so fly in that shirt 👌🏼

[@ThoughtsOnTomes]

thank you :)

I'm with you on 'Grey's Anatomy' I loved that show, but I haven't seen much since the plane crash. It's a never ending show. I love Once, but I agree it's also one of those never gonna end series - sadly. I'm not caught up completely. Vampire Diaries I binge watched the first 2 seasons. I haven't watched since then though

i was into so many tv shows in high school. then shit happened, i dropped everything, re-discovered my anime obsession and havent looked back since. probably for the better

[@chelseahuddle557]

Anime never gets old. :3

Wow, Sam! It took me a while to watch all your vids but here I am, ready to answer all of them: Me, like you, love TV shows but there are some series I quit because of several reasons. This is my list: 1. Once Upon a Time: You did the wisest move as from season 4 (the Frozen one) all went downhill (except the inclusion of some characters that were later very, very, badly treated, plot wise) 2. The vampire diaries: All the characters were non-humans at the point I left it so... 3. Grey´s Anatomy: Too many deaths. Too many deaths. And the TV channel decided to play with the timetable so... 4. Charmed: I LOVED this TV show but the TV channel were I watch it decided to not buy the last season ;(

I've watched the first 3 or 4 seasons of True Blood, and so far the 2nd season is currently my favorite. Anyways, someone in my family watched all of True Blood except the first season 'cause she started watching where I was watching. She hated the series finale and it's kind of funny. I wonder if I'll be laughing when I get to the end of the show lol

[@jnlynsarte9924]

I love this video. I feel the feels!

*sign. I'm with you on TVD. I was a fan from way back I'm the preteen days when I first read the books. So when they made the show I was all about it I'm a ridiculous way. I even liked some of the changes they made. It kept the show fresh but then for me season 4 I hit a wall and I was done. I couldn't take the way they were using and abusing my all time favorite character. #gutted . One day I'll buck up and binge watch the rest.

[@LorienWitch]

OMG I forgot about Grey's... Denny broke me. I lost interest the second they shoved like 100 more characters in there without using the older ones. I loved Christina Yang though.

[@sandiweyl]

Yes to everything you said about Once Upon a Time. The same stuff happens over and over and over.. I only kept watching because I love Hook and Emma so much. They could have ended the series soooo well where they left it and now the next season, no one interesting is coming back (aka Hook and Emma) so I just give up!

[@idawoodhouse1755]

I stopped watching Scandal. Fitz made me so angry, I couldn't take it any longer.

[@harasnicole]

I abandoned Scandal because Olivia kept going back to him when she knew she shouldn't.

[@smartlikewoah]

Omg THIS. I hated their relationship and the constant back and forth. You could tell me that they never get back together for the next few seasons, or even that he dies, and I still wouldn't watch it lol. Olivia and Fitz left such a bad taste in my mouth.

[@ahfdhbdgbvggvgfgdgh7893]

Yess!!!! Cook and Effy, oh my god they are/were amazing. I wasn't the biggest fan of Effy, but Cook is the person who seriously fucked me up when it came toe Gen 2. Like, in Gen 1 Chris really messed with my mind, Chris was the best character ever. And Now so is Cook. Have you watched the entire series yet? Like Gen 3? Because holy shit, Gen 3 was so so SO amazing, especially two certain sets of couples who were just perfect!

[@ke_nickie]

oh girl True Blood tho... that show absolutely tanked

[@paulinac2283]

I had to leave Teen Wolf after season 4. I loved the first two seasons but after that I realized I wasn't enjoying it anymore. Everything that made me like seasons 1&2 wasn't in the later seasons anymore. 😭ALLISON😭

[@CiaraBond94]

I agree with everything you said about once upon a time. I found it so hard to enjoy a show when it's the same storyline over and over. Tvd was my fav and I left the fandom after they killed Katherine and made the originals! I felt the best characters had left and I just couldn't handle the ship wars I loved klaroline and it was just a hot mess on tumblr and twitter. I loved the show but I knew once Nina had left the show was just going downhill. I did however rejoin the fandom in hope that my OTP will be reunited in the originals! The fanfics have kept me going they have some of the best I have read!
