Generally a lot of my favorite shows I don't watch until they are over. It can be frustrating, too, because if you're not happy with the finale, there's no "maybe next season". What are some shows that you didn't become a fan of until their run ended?
True Blood
Eureka
Everybody Loves Raymond (Marie is identical to my MIL)
That's all I can think of at the moment. I started watching some of my current shows after they had already had a few seasons. For instance, TWD, I binge watched the first three seasons in order to watch season 4. I don't like to pick up a show in the middle.

I watched the first three seasons of The Big Bang Theory in a few days so I could begin watching the series in the middle of Season 4. But I have since grown tired of that show.
I watched the first six seasons of How I Met Your Mother in the "offseason" in time for the Season 7 premiere.
I started watching New Girl from the start.
I started watching The Office I don't know when... but I think around the seasons without Carell was when I began catching up from Season 1.
A lot, when you consider the shows I enjoy now but was too young to watch them during their first runs on TV: The Donna Reed Show, Father Knows Best, Route 66, Peter Gunn, The Naked City, The Untouchables, Private Secretary, the Twilight Zone ... It's quite a list.
Back when USA Network was still a fledgling cable network (late 1980s), they bought the rerun rights to daytime soap The Edge of Night to air in a late-fringe slot (around midnight---literally the edge of night). The show had been cancelled a few years before, and other than a few bits and pieces from my childhood (including a famous Edge plot twist that I wrote about in the "Your Earliest TV memory" thread), I had not seen The Edge of Night with any regularity. I watched one or two episodes (originally aired in early 1980) and was immediately hooked. They aired the reruns up to when the show ended, and I felt like kicking myself for not having discovered it earlier when it was still in production. But it was "new to me".
Better still, someone started putting up complete episodes of the show on youtube from even earlier in the run, which allowed yet another trip to mysterious Monticello a few years ago.
