Tried watching 'The Crown' and 'The Great' back to back...
I watched the first 3 episodes of each show this weekend, and 'The Great' just pulled me in way faster. The Crown felt slow and heavy, like a history book, while 'The Great' made the same kind of royal drama feel wild and funny from the start. Has anyone else found a show that hooked them quicker than a similar one?

Got the same feeling with two cop shows last month. The Wire took a few episodes to click, but Brooklyn Nine-Nine had me laughing from the opening scene. What did you watch after those first episodes?

Isn't it funny how some shows need time to grow on you while others just grab you right away? I see that all the time, like how some people become instant friends and others you have to warm up to. You're totally right @the_jenny, The Wire is a whole mood you have to settle into, but B99 is like a shot of happy. After those first episodes, did you find yourself sticking with one style or jumping between serious and funny shows?
