Oh yes, I totally devoured the rest of Black Sails. It just took me several tries to make beyond the first 2-3 episodes. There are shows I've given up on, but haven't even bothered to google how they ended. The Walking Dead is one of them. I watched the first 8 seasons, but nothing after that. Gave up on Manifest once it moved to Netflix.

I find now that any show I hear about/read about that sounds like it might interest me, I try to find out as much about it as I can -- reviews, news stories, etc. But even then, there are a number of critically acclaimed shows that I've just not been able to get into at all, e.g. Succession, The Bear, Reservation Dogs, to name a few recent ones.

And then there are shows that just sound so horrible to me that I don't even attempt to watch even for 5 minutes. Sex and the City is one of those.
