I gave a show I hated a second chance and it completely changed my mind

I watched the first episode of 'Severance' when it came out and turned it off after 20 minutes because it felt too slow. A friend kept telling me to try again, so I gave it another shot last weekend and watched three episodes straight. The slow start is a setup for a really wild story that gets going fast. I learned that some shows need more than one episode to show you what they are about. Has anyone else had a show they disliked at first turn into a favorite after a few more tries?

Wild story" is a stretch, it's still just people in an office. But yeah, the third episode does pick up.

True, but the way they use the office layout to show power dynamics is low-key genius lol
