Maybe this is just because of where I am in life, but between work, children, and hobbies, I don't have time to be bored. If I'm watching TV it's because I'm choosing to do it instead of something else I should be doing or want to do. I will only even try shows that receive high praise from people I trust or from a lot of reviewers. If a show's only function is to kill time it has negative value to me.

I'm just saying that shows, nowadays, need to be simultaneously easy to get into to start but also in depth enough to keep people hooked. We're still early into the show so I think we're still in that "simple" stage.
