Is there a TV series you regret watching purely because of how long it was, and overall, how unsatisfactory it was when it finished? (piefed.social)

For me, it was The Walking Dead. It obviously suffered seriously quality decline over its run - but because it was so long, I could've instead watched so many other shows instead.

Seinfeld, there's way more miss episodes than hit episodes. The peak is the middle few seasons, and even then it's 50:50 at best.

Is it worth watching for the first time, do you think?

I'd say it depends on your tastes. If you like it's always sunny or arrested development then it might be worth it, and start with season 4 and go back if you really liked it. Otherwise skip it.
