Films or tv shows you were expecting to love or hate

I love GOT but after the 2nd episode nearly gave up, but then got hooked. I did like Killing Eve but can’t be bothered with the new series, might pick up again at some point.

I’m the same with Killing Eve, I liked the first series but then just didn’t bother with it again. No reason why.

Watched a couple of episodes of Game of Thrones back in 2016. Neither DH or I could see the appeal and didn't watch any more. Fast forward to 2019, for some reason we tried it again and ended up binge watching all 8 seasons. We just couldn't stop!
I really, really can't get in to Breaking Bad. Tried it 3 times and just don't get the hype.

Walking Dead, I hate gory horror but have watched this from the start and love it. Although I hide behind a cushion for the zombie bits 😂

After Life. I do not like Ricky Gervais and haven’t enjoyed any of his previous series but I loved the first series of this, and I’m also enjoying the second series. I also usually hate anything with the overuse of swearing, especially the c word. I don’t like hearing it in this but it doesn’t stop me enjoying the programme

I found it really enjoyable and as for Hugh Grant it took me a while to notice it was him 😀 my son is now trying to persuade me to watch snatch but I don’t think he will wear me down this time ! Anything you thought you would love or hate but didn’t ?

Really enjoyed Gentleman and yes what a difference in the usual character that Hugh Grant plays, well worth a watch .

Charlie Wilsons war, love Tom Hanks but when it started I wanted to switch it off, looked crap and nothing like his other films. Hubby said to preserver as it was good, I did and it was a really good film.

Both Breaking Bad and Stranger Things. I didn't think I'd like either but I love them. My eldest dd is trying to get me to watch Killing Eve and Peaky Blinders, maybe one day x

Peaky Blinders and Breaking Bad are both my type of program but I can’t get into either of them.

Afterlife. I'm not a fan of Ricky Gervais but this changed my whole opinion of him. The Last Kingdom is the sort of thing I normally avoid as it involves costumes and battles but DH loves the books so we watched it and I got hooked.
