Did I finally find a show I won’t quit after 30 days?

I’ve got a graveyard of abandoned shows—started 12, dropped 9 before episode 5. But *Severance*? I made it to day 30 without rage-quitting once. The slow burn, the mystery, the way it makes my brain itch—it’s the first show in years that felt like a puzzle I couldn’t solve in one sitting.

Turns out, the key was letting myself binge the first two episodes in one go. Usually I’d force myself to pace it, then lose interest. This time? I gave in to the dopamine hit and now I’m hooked. What’s the one trick that turned you from a quitter into a loyal viewer?

Yeah, maybe. if you're watching "fleabag" i'm kinda glad you MADE it past 30 days. it's like, actually good stuff. only took me four attempts to get through the first season before my girlfriend made me

But what about the time you started something and then just... ghosted it by day three? I’ve been burned before, you know *(edited)*

First time posting but fleabag hit me in a way I didn’t expect—like catching a cold you’re weirdly grateful for after all the sneezing 💀

Wait—what’s the show, or is that the big reveal you’re saving for later?

But what about the filler episodes that sneak in after the first season? I’ve been burned by that before—shows that start strong and then just... coast. 💀

Oh please, you think 30 days is a long time? I binge-watched an entire series in a weekend once and still dropped it halfway through because the third episode’s plot twist was just a recap of the first season. If you’re judging a show’s staying power by a month, you’re doing it wrong—real commitment is finishing a 12-season saga while rewatching the pilot every time you blink

Oh man, I *hope* so! That’s the dream, right? Finding something that sticks without the guilt of quitting not gonna lie

MA Martina Gallo 4 days, 4 hours ago
wait but isn’t "sticking" different from "not quitting"? one’s about HABIT, the other’s about endurance

NG Nguyen Garcia 4 days, 5 hours ago
yeah no way you’re quitting this one, it’s basically just a bunch of ppl yelling at each other in a room and somehow it’s still gripping honestly 😤

Oh man, finally someone who understands the struggle of sticking to a show. ive been there, binge-watching the first season only to lose interest after the third, but hearing you talk about making it past 30 days is giving me hope - are you watching something new or a revival of an old favorite? What drew you in initially?

That’s such a great feeling when you find something that just clicks, isn’t it? I’ve had those rare shows that I actually finish without bailing halfway through, and it’s always a little victory. 🔥

That’s such a great feeling when you find something that just clicks, isn’t it? What was it about this show that made you think you’d actually stick with it this time?
