Is there a movie or a show that you didn’t really like, but gave it a second chance because it seemed like everyone was raving about it?

I never really liked “Seinfeld”. I’ve seen multiple episodes and some are less terrible than others, but i never understood why everyone loved it.
It took me a few tries to get through “The Big Lebowski”. I still didn’t get it until a friend sat me down and we watched it together. He pointed out the hilarity in a lot of the things i just thought were ridiculous, and others that i overlooked entirely.
Recently, i tried to get into “Yellowjackets”. The story is completely disjointed and the drama repels me, rather than drawing me in. I haven’t been able to convince myself to watch an episode in months.
What shows or movies did you give another shot or three because everyone else loved them?

The Trailer Park Boys. I didn't think it would be my type of show, a lot of swearing and drugs but I have never laughed so hard watching a show! There is a character, Ricky, that reminds me sooo much of a friend of mine. It took me about three episodes to get to know and understand the characters, then I couldn't stop watching it lol

Friends. And I still don't get the hype. Such a generic show.

It took me a while to get into “Friends” because i had so many sitcoms disappointment me with the typical ‘all men are bumbling idiots’ tropes. It took a few episodes for me to see that all of the main characters on “Friends” are idiots in their own ways. So i finally relaxed and let the humor in. It’s pretty ridiculous most of the time, but there are some gems.
