    Television and film finales can go two ways. They're usually totally worth the wait or make you wonder why you even bothered. Recently, I asked the BuzzFeed Community to share the TV shows and movies they refused to finish. Here's what they had to say:

    1. Game of Thrones

    "Every time I try to watch it I just get disappointed. They kill off every character you root for. They make the evil characters so twisted. They throw in random gross things. And then everyone said the ending was horrible! Not what they were expecting or hoping for. This whole series seems like a giant hyped-up disappointment. Pass."

    2. The Walking Dead

    "I gave up on that at least three years before it ended, maybe more. I remember being so bored by one of the season finales that I just gave up on the whole thing."

    3. Riverdale

    "I only got a few episodes into Season 2 when I couldn't watch anymore. After reading about the rest of the show and seeing YouTube clips sporadically, I'm so glad I didn't waste my time."

    4. Grey's Anatomy

    "Once the main characters started leaving it got old. At this point, it's just recycled stories with new interns. They should have stopped that show years ago!"

    5. Westworld

    "I LOVED the first two seasons (as hard to watch and disturbing as they are) but then the entire direction changed. It became a different show with a different premise. It became harder to follow, harder to care about."

    —Amy, Texas

    6. Breaking Bad

    "I get a lot of flack for this, but Breaking Bad ! I disliked every character so much. No matter what they did, I was just irritated not interested. I also couldn't get past the horrific yellow filter. It was so insanely heavy...like, why? I made it halfway through Season 2 because everyone kept telling me how good it got. I turned it off after watching an episode one day and never bothered turning it back on. I didn't care at all about continuing it."

    7. Glee

    "I only got up to two episodes because they were long, I kept falling asleep, and I already couldn't stand Rachel Berry."

    "It's so boring and dry. Some books should not become movies or shows."

    10. Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver

    12. The Rookie

    13. The L Word

    "I powered through the first few seasons and enjoyed it. But it got messy and just unwatchable."

    14. Wheel of Fortune

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0dIKOO_0upqipUL00

    "It's mind-numbingly boring. The contestants always had outstanding spouses and exceptional children. I watched the last show to see if anything was different, and no, I just wasted 30 minutes of my time. It was an insanely popular show, just not for me."

    15. The Goldbergs

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=2y2E06_0upqipUL00

    "The first four seasons are hilarious, but then it gets weird. Adam keeps growing up but the other two stay the same age for multiple seasons? It got really bad and I stopped watching. Whenever I rewatch, I only watch the first four seasons."

    16. Dexter: New Blood

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=38pkXT_0upqipUL00

    "It bored me to tears. It was completely different from the original series with a bunch of new characters I did not care about."

    17. Open Water

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0rZ5tq_0upqipUL00

    18. The Big Bang Theory

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=2Kzhpo_0upqipUL00

    "I hate not finishing shows because I feel like I've put all my time into it and I don't want it to be a waste, but I realized when you're not enjoying something, it's a waste of time anyway. Maybe my sense of humor changed as I got older or maybe it's because the show got completely stale and predictable, but I stopped around Season 9 or 10. I can't remember. I only remember getting to the point of needing to force myself through an episode and finally calling it quits."

    19. And Just Like That

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=1qdLot_0upqipUL00

    "I absolutely LOVED Sex and the City , but the revival show was terrible, the acting was poor, and the writing was sloppy."

    "Everyone raved about it, but it made me cringe and feel on edge for every second of each episode I watched. I know that's partly the point, but I couldn't go on after the third or fourth episode. It was too much!"

    21. DC Comics Arrowverse TV Shows

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0LDIjp_0upqipUL00

    "All of the DC Arrowverse shows ( Arrow , Supergirl , The Flash , and Legends ). They started fresh and interesting with their niche and tone. Then they became more convoluted and long-winded until it was watching the same show but with different characters. I gave up on all of them at some point and didn't even bother giving the new ones a shot."
