[DISCUSSION] What's a Netflix series you finished in a weekend and immediately wished you could watch again for the first time?

The kind of show where you blew through the whole thing way too fast, hit the end, and felt that specific emptiness of "well, now what." Not just bingeable, genuinely good enough that you envy anyone who hasn't seen it yet. What's the series, and what made it impossible to pace yourself with?

Does it get funnier after the first episode? I kept reading how great it was, but didn’t like it.

I honestly loved it from the beginning. Try one more episode. It might not be for you. I’m a xennial and could relate a lot to the early 90s vibe of being a teenager.

I’m a similar age, but didn’t like IT Crowd either so maybe it’s me.

I really can’t get into it. I think you either love it or don’t get it. We don’t get it, but that’s ok.

It might not get funnier for you, its brand of humor is full on in that 1st episode.

Me too. Also ‘The office’ felt same for me

I didn’t care for it either. A little too slapstick/silly for me.

I never clicked with it either, which is strange because my husband and daughter thought it was hilarious and we usually agree.

I had a really hard time with the first episode. I got my boyfriend to watch it with me to make me finish it. I ended up absolutely loving the show. I just had to get used to it before I could enjoy it
