Shows You’re Giving Up on Next Season

I can totally understand how many people would. Personally I haven’t seen all of season two but there hasn’t been any storylines that I’ve particularly loved, I still like season one more and feel season two just hasn’t met the same storyline and such. But I’d certainly not give up on it- I couldn’t not know how it ended and although I was a little disappointed with season 2 it wasn’t even close to that bad that I’d give up!

^This.

Maybe it’s because I spent 6 years as a die hard LOSTie but I do not find OUAT to be convoluted.

I find OUAT to be so much more enjoyable than Lost because I find it easier to follow.

I get why it might be convoluted to the casual viewer who doesn’t agonize over every detail like we do. I have a few people I know who watch it and then come to me to remind them of things that we already knew or explain why so and so is upset with such and such etc. Most don’t devote the time we do to it but it makes it really fun to be able to talk to someone after the episode and be reminded of all that stuff and sometimes they ask questions that we either didn’t think to ask because we were zoomed so far in on the details that we forgot the bigger picture, or they remind us of something we just skipped over.

Perhaps those who do find it too convoluted and don’t have the time to devote to it are also ones who don’t have a place to go (like here) or people to talk to in the real world about the show and are more likely to throw in the towel. I love catching up with casual viewers I’ve gotten hooked on it, they always have interesting things to add.

I hope that with word of mouth the show will continue to grow (I know Netflix helped tons last year), and that once S2 hits Netflix more people will get into it, especially knowing that S3 scheduling will be tons better. (I dread the thought of winter & summer hiatus but love the back to back episode chunks). I really think it’ll go back up next year. *fingers crossed*
