I recently decide to watch Curb Your Enthusiasm and I only really started to enjoy the show after season four.

I feel like a lot of dramas like The Americans, Dark, and Narcos take me a little while to get invested but it’s typically only a season.

    Probably going to be Lost. I’m 3 episodes in as of 2008 and haven’t gone back yet…if I ever do, it will be the longest to get into for me by far.

    In seriousness though…As others have said, The Office and Parks & Rec took me about a season to get into.

    Arrested Development, I admit, took me a few episodes.

    Always Sunny took me about a season…I think just to get into a groove of the style or something, I dunno.

      Arrested Development took everyone a few episodes. Much of the humour is about riffing on repeated jokes set up in previous episodes - you’ve got to get through a few episodes first for these to start to click.

      That’s partly why it was never successful when broadcast. It’s a show that should have been binge-watched but was released on broadcast TV, an episode a week, but tellingly it only took off in popularity with the DVD release (and later on streaming).
