moviemouth out of those 50 TV shows or so... about how many you think you did not finish? ; just trying to get a feel for what's of real worth for you vs what's not. as for how many TV shows I have seen and basically finished... without checking I would guess no more than 15 or so. p.s. but one show I suspect ill like... Narcos (2015-) ; but I may just wait til it's finished before seeing it (as it's a ongoing show currently). but then again I might jump into it in the not too distant future. Just because I didn't finish them doesn't mean they weren't good at one point. They just wore out their welcome. The first 3 seasons of Six Feet Under I like a lot but then the story got tiresome after a while. The Simpsons is my favorite show of all time but the show takes a huge drop in quality after the 9th season and I stopped watching them after around the 13th season. The show is now on it's 27th season or something. I watched maybe half of the TV shows I have seen in their entirety and some of the shows are still on the air and I am still watching them. |

moviemouthin my mind that pretty much means this... something that's solid for a while but fizzles out to the point you stop watching it... in the end, it's forgettable pretty much especially if you don't have any desire to re-watch it. It would be very unlikely I would say a show is my #1 of all-time if I stopped watching it at some point. but I guess with that show specifically, since it's went on for such a long time, maybe it's a exception to the general rule and I guess one could pretend it stopped after a certain point and just enjoy re-watching the seasons you liked a lot which for you is pretty much the first nine seasons. so you still got a decent success rate, but then again there is plenty of misses to. thanks for the info. p.s. but i guess at the end of the day... if we don't watch TV shows we have not seen before, at least occasionally, then it's not going to be possible to find any more quality shows which is why I still give a show a chance once in a while. but at the same time, there is not much I would be in any hurry to see.

I only re-watch cartoon show episodes. I have seen every episode of the first 8 seasons of The Simpsons like 10 times. I love 24 but I wouldn't watch it again simply because it would be way too time-consuming. Each season is 24 hrs long and there are 8 seasons. Same with most other TV shows. Cartoon shows are different because I just watch random episodes. Regarding you considering a show forgattable or whatever because it got dull a long the way I do not agree with. I rate TV shows by Season. For example, I love the first season of a couple of the shows I stopped watching. One specific show that is very inconsistant season by season is The X-Files. The show doesn't actually start getting great until the 3rd season. |

moviemouthDamn, first 8 seasons viewed 10 times or so. that's a lot. but then again they have been out a long time now assuming you started viewing them back-in-the-day and re-watched them here and there since. p.s. as a general guideline for me when it comes to movies... anything I consider a favorite ill be re-watching AT LEAST once every 3 years or so. with TV shows, since they take a bit more time, that might bump up to every 5 years or so. I never understood that mindset because... ...a high quality show is a high quality show. if it's very entertaining it should hold up on re-watches and be a show you want to see again from time-to-time as the years pass. shows and movies that don't hold up to a certain standard on re-watches ain't really that great in the long term. it's what separates the quality from just-another-movie(or TV show) basically. like i always say, a movies or TV shows re-watch factor is what ultimately makes or breaks it in the long term. with that said... sure, there are some movies I might have praised at one point that are now average for me but in this case if some random topic comes up like say, 'Rate Movie A', ill post a quick rating but say I praised it at one point in the past but no longer like it overall anymore etc. I guess I just never understand that mindset of rarely or never re-watching things especially movies or shows that stand out to a higher degree I would imagine most people would want to re-watch those (like some of their favorites) once in a while as the years pass. with that said... I realize there are some people who rarely or never re-watch things though but I guess I just see things very differently in that basic core point when it comes to movies/TV shows as a whole. it's basically like a quality song... those you want to listen to again-and-again as the years pass and I think the same holds true for movies. sure, I realize a song uses up far less of ones time compared to a movie (i.e. about 3-5min vs about a couple of hours) but on a general basic entertainment level it's a good comparison.

You don't need to understand it. I prefer spending my time watching movies and TV shows I haven't seen before. I never said that the show wouldn't hold up on re-watch. That has nothing to do with it. |

moviemouthIt must be much easier for you to find quality movies/TV shows then because if I only watched movies (or TV shows) I have not seen before, especially excluding ones being released into the future(as this makes it easier to still find quality movies I have not seen before), I would lose most of my interest in watching movies simply because I feel I have seen a large percentage of movies from the past that would be of any real worth for me. sure, I think there are some gems that slipped through the cracks but it won't be easy for me to find them. SIDE NOTE: 2017 was the first year since I been logging this info that I have seen more movies for the first time than movies I re-watched as every year on record before that, which is Dec 27th 2011 to date (basically 2012 to date), I always re-watch more movies than movies I have seen for the first time (this counts ALL movies I have seen regardless of release year of the movie etc). so generally speaking... most of my movie etc viewing are ones I have seen before as that helps keep movie as a whole interesting for me as if I removed that from the equation then I would lost most of my interest in movies because I just can't see the point in watching movies without wanting to re-watch some of them here and there at the very least as you will stumble into quality movies for the first time here and there and I want to see them again. I know you did not say that but it's good general guideline if you ask me. like a good song you listen to again-and-again as the years pass and I would think that applies to most of us who get into movies. I realize the easy majority of movies are not worth re-watching but there is still some that are definitely worth re-watching from time to time as the years pass. I just never understood those who rarely or never re-watch movies etc. so I guess if what you see in total still has a fair portion of re-watches, even if say something like 75% or so are first time viewings, then we are in agreement enough. but if not, then we ain't on the same page much at all on that core thing.

I rate around 50 movies released per year 7/10 or higher. Of the 500 movies from every era that I watch per year I rate around 200 7/10 or higher. I watch everything though even if I know I won't like it. That I realize is confusing to most people. I basically just like to be able to say "yes, I have seen that movie." |

Point being, that if I re-watched every movie and TV show I rate 7/10 or higher all I'd be doing is re-watching stuff for the next 10 years straight. For context - I have seen over 6000 movies and of those 6000 I rate about 1800 7/10 or higher. |

moviemouthThat helps explain things. your a much easier rater than myself and it's easy to see why you don't re-watch movies based on the 7/10 or higher standard. but speaking of that 7/10 or higher standard thing... It can vary a bit as I mostly used the 7/10 or higher standard for measuring My Favorite Movies because that 7/10 score is the minimum score from me for a movie to stand out from the pack. but since you got soooo many movies you score pretty high then naturally I would start with your high tier stuff like say 8/10's and higher if there is too many of those to re-watch raise it to 9/10's and if that's too many to re-watch go to 10/10's and if that's still too many, I would seriously consider adjusting your rating system. that's not a dis on you or anything but it's just a way to help filter out the BS from movies that are of real worth to you. but with that said... I realize that could be time consuming so I would easily understand if you did not bother readjusting your rating system. While I can see your point in watching movies so you can make some general comments on it if someone brings it up. what I don't understand is seeing ALL movies because there is a boatload of crap out there. sure, i know you did not literally mean 'all' movies because it's not possible to watch all movies in existence. but i get your general point in that you try to watch a lot of movies. Damn, so basically about 30% of all movies you have seen score a 7/10 or higher. Hell, there is only about 30% of ALL movies I have seen that I give a basic Thumbs Up or higher (i.e. 6/10 or higher) but a much lower percentage of ones that stand out which is about 9%. even being a bit generous and counting movies that are a bit shy of being called a favorite that percentage would still only raise to about 11-12%.
