To ask what TV series you have stuck with?

I just finished watching this week's Grey's Anatomy, Season 15 episode 14. I just checked and it's been running since 2005! It pre-dates my marriage and 2 of my children and yet I still watch it religiously every week. I've stayed with it all these years and can't explain why!

Even though it is often ridiculous/utter pants and I get pissed off when characters die predictably (usually when they're happy and everything is going swimmingly for them!) I always forgive it and come back and start watching again.

Anyone else have a long term relationship with a TV series? Grin

The walking dead.
I love it! We're on season 9 so been going since 2009 !
Its recently had an overhaul with a new show runner so fans approve. But honestly I've never stopped loving it!

@Mof3K

Agree and second everything you have just wrote hence my username (ignore the BBF bit that's a typo Blush

I have not missed one episode and actually started to binge watch again after season 7 it's fab.

Before I even clicked on this thread I instantly thought 'Grey's Anatomy'! I love it and I don't care how ridiculous it gets.

GraceMarks · 28/02/2019 19:57

I don't know whether I want to admit to this, but... Casualty! I've been watching it for about 20 years and it feels oddly comforting to tune in now. I know it's a bit rubbish but it's like an old friend whose quirks you've grown used to and would miss if they changed.

BartonHollow · 28/02/2019 19:59

I ended it with Greys but only at Season 13

I stuck with Lost til the end and it didn't reward my loyalty

They need to let Greys go IMO

Namechangedbecauseiwantto · 28/02/2019 19:59

Casualty for me too, haven't missed one.

WineCheeseSleep · 28/02/2019 19:59

Supernatural, I still really enjoy it too even though you'd think it would have run its course.

cornishpixue · 28/02/2019 20:04

Kittycat - definitely Buffy & Angel, I'm currently re-watching with my DD discovering it fir the first time - brilliant!

I was brought up watching Corrie and just can’t give it up even when it is shit.

The programme started in 1960, but I wasn’t born till 1966 so not sure quite how many episodes I’ve got to.Grin
