THIS is what turns me off of shows like Lost. I haven't watched a single episode, ever. I don't have the desire to watch a single episode ever. Even if I wanted to watch Lost, I can't just watch the show, I have to start watching it. In order to really get into it, I have to learn about the extensive plot that has accumulated over time. Another thing is that the whole thing is just endless, it will never end. Questions are answered, answers become questions which are answered, which become questions and so on. I just cannot bring myself to care after a while, or even enough to start to try and watch the show.

Please don't mistake my dislike for this show as me saying "I believe this show is terrible." Its just terrible for me.

That's a good point. It's not a problem for me because I had the time to "start" watching the show, but I understand what you're saying.

That's why I stopped watching it. There was just too much plot - it never ceased.

Completely disagree with you, Friends is still incredibly good, I still laugh ridicolously hard when I see repeats. I think they did well for a 90's sitcom. Some other shows were utter ****. Everybody Loves Raymond is one of them.

I just think they tried to hard. And yeah I'll admit Raymond annoyed me the most. They were all so thick. Not saying some of the Friend's characters weren't, but at least you could relate to them.

well friends had a great dynamic

six friends were always out and about getting into all kinds of hijinx and meeting gong-show characters

with raymond, it was always the same characters, so old gags got old kinda fast.

and raymond's voice is annoying. i want to slap him in the teeth
