Do you miss "Water cooler shows"?

And have you been in any fandom of those types of shows? Or experienced them when they actually airing?

Shows that captured people's minds & created discussions on a weekly basis.

I hate that the "binge model" has kinda killed that honestly. Also, people don't seem to discuss the streaming shows that become popular, they just do trends pertaining to the show.

And nobody discusses episodes anymore but the whole show instead. So if you didn't binge it over the weekend, you're screwed.

I think the last true one in the streaming era might've been WandaVision. That shit was fun to talk about.

I miss the discussions & theorising what of what might happen in the next episodes.

The era of Lost was wild, man! And the early seasons of The Walking were a HUGE deal. A lot of people don't realise how big that show used to be.

People used to have freaking neighbourhood watch parties for The Walking Dead.

Heroes season 1 was fun as hell.

Even though it wasn't THAT huge, I loved Fringe when it was on. The fandom & discussions were fun.
