Are there any TV series you gave up on, or just forgot about due to insane gaps between seasons? (lemm.ee)

Stranger Things kinda lost me when it went full blown evil Russia hiding under the CIA science lab and trying to redeem the Nazi doctor guy. Like I get that it's steeped in 80s tropes but it would have been fun to see them subvert that instead of having the little black girl that should have been mourning the loss of the Black Panthers and talking shit about the Move bombing (which would have JUST happened in the show). Instead she is capitalism's biggest cheerleader and it comes off as incredibly tone def.
