Season 2 finale of Shrinking I would like to watch again being I didn't give Harrison Ford's speech the attention it deserved what with worrying about Roy Kent so much I was in weeping moron mode. I wasn't going to watch it on Christmas Day which was when Apple released it with the thought process of something bad happening and a very nice Sherbro texted me to warn me off knowing I'd be a mess.

Going back years the feature length 90210 I watched so much I ruined the VHS, the episode of Breaking Bad where Hank meets his end I watched a few times even though he was my favourite character and I was gutted.

The Nick Offerman episode in The Last Of Us was beautiful but so sad I'll never be able to watch it again, which is a shame because he was amazing.
 
The first episode of Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal and another one, "Coven of the Damned" are a very hard watch for me due to child death. I love the show and both episodes were amazing but I'm at a point now where I'm not watching things like that.
 
I will never ever in my life ever watch the dog episode of Futurama, heck no, never again!
Probably wont ever listen to that song again either, no way!

❤️ 🐶 ❤️
Heard about it and thankful I was warned off in advance. Not TV but my nephews told me never to watch Marley & Me as well which I can only imagine is horrific.
 
Too old to die young moves at a very slow pace it is a show I could never rewatch.

Pile of pretentious wank, he did the same with Valhala Rising. I gave it a go because I like Miles Teller and Bronson was great but holy shirtballs did that show suck. I assume it didn't get any better after the first episode.
 
Got one episode left in season 3 of The Bear. The show is incredible but hot damn is it stressful. I recommend it to everyone, but I don't think I could watch through it again.
I watched a trailer about the chef Charlie Trotter on Netflix the other day and thought hang on a minute is he what The Bear was based on being he behaves quite similarly. And The Bear is indeed loosely based on him.

I have a love/hate relationship with that show. Seeing Thomas Keller, Daniel Boulud and the NOMA guy was brilliant but some of it was painstakingly drawn out which considering I watched most of it in bed I did doze off a bit.

BTW that last episode is an absolute blinder, to the point of tearing up blinder.
 
The final episode of Quantum Leap, which aired in 1993 when I was 15, was the first time I ever cried at the end of a TV series.

It’s so gut-wrenching that I haven’t been able to bring myself to watch it again.

The one that hit me really hard was Tina getting laid off and on the job hunt. My dad got laid off and we moved cross country to some property we owned. Watched both my parents struggle for years working low paying jobs going back to school, only to get laid off again and go back for more certifications. I could feel every ounce of her stress and anxiety at the thought of losing their house. The feeling of helplessness was so raw I felt like I watching my family go through it all over again.
 
I tend to binge watch dramatic shows years after they aired on their networks. The Wire is my favorite show ever. Sopranos and Breaking Bad were amazing. I doubt I'll watch any of them again, just because the thrill of anticipation won't be there.

Husband got laid off a couple of months before we watched that episode so that was a tough one as well. Bought a house we loved, everything was going great and then bam, his company said they wanted everyone to start working out of San Francisco offices when we'd moved 7 hours away so a team of 100 people were given marching orders because they'd relocated like us.

She was amazing in that as was Jon Bernthal in that scene in the back of the restaurant when he offered her the job. He really doesn't get enough love as an actor. But yeah, I wouldn't be able to watch that one again.

Edit: did you know Tina and her husband in the show are IRL a couple?
 
The fly one in breaking bad cuz its boring.

The 2 filler episodes in Last of Us cuz it does nothing for the story.

Oh wow, I used to watch the reruns with my friend every night along with Tour of Duty. I haven't made it to the end of either but it's a shame that QL had a bitter end.

Yeah, that's a great mention. Jamie Lee Curtis should have won an Emmy, Golden Globe, or SAG award for that pregnancy/labor episode, "Ice Chips", but holy shit, I felt like I was in labor myself. Can't watch that episode again. I haven't gone back to watch the "Fishes" episode which is the best in the show's history, either. Not sure if I could get through it.
 
I think one of the greatest acting performances in a singular episode in history was in the third episode of the first season of The Leftovers, by Christopher Eccleston, but man, that is a tough one to watch. That series as a whole is incredible, but harrowing to (re)watch.
