The 3 episode rule got me, I used to quit every show too early

I used to bounce off shows after one episode if they didn't hook me instantly. That changed last month when my buddy in Denver basically forced me to watch Dark on Netflix past the first three episodes. I kept complaining it was too slow, but he said quote "you're judging a book by the first page" and man was he right. By episode 4 the twist hit me so hard I binged the whole season in one weekend. Now I give everything at least 3 episodes, who else has a show that needed that kind of patience before it clicked?

Respect the patience but I'm the opposite, if a show cant grab me in one episode its probably not for me and forcing myself through three just feels like a chore. Glad Dark worked for you though, that show is a beast once it gets going.
