Ditto here. Could not stand the thought of the impotent boy being the center of the show. Also watched the first season of the Frankenstein Chronicles & never turned on the second season. As for Westworld.....gave it up halfway through.

Me as well. But my reason was, it plodded along.

South Park - it stopped being funny to me and I just got tired of it

Sex and the City - got tired of it despite all the boobs

The Sopranos - season 3 was so soapy to me I walked away

Designated Survivor. The plot, Kiefer's voice, and the acting by supporting cast made me give up. Bleh. Had potential but went a different way.

I tried the first two episodes of Westworld and couldn't get into it. The premise just didn't excite me.

Keifer's voice....seems like his whispers his dialog.

I fully get the notion of 'willing suspense of disbelief,' but when a show starts to stretch the bounds of that I throw in the towel. These 2 things tend to make be lose interest in series over time:

1) too many unaddressed shootings/murders by main characters
2) too much manipulation of basic concepts of time and place (i.e., you can be in three places 100 miles apart in 2 hours).

Westworld.. it just didn't go in an exciting way as I had imagined.

Westword was a let-down. So much hype.

This x1000. I will tune back in when that smarmy "Boneless" trainwreck DIES.
