Sopranos, Game of Thrones. Basically anything produced for HBO.
I caught the first 2-1/2 seasons of The Wire because of a promotion on Hulu.
It boils down to: I'm a cheapskate.

Yo ho me hearty, 'tis no excuse says I.
Breaking Bad.
I started watching this in 2022. Just picked it up again last november, I like the show but it's too heavy for me. I need a break after a couple of episodes. I like it enough to pick it up again but it really feels heavy for me.

Godfather, Shawshank, lotr, the wire, six feet under, I'm sure there's a lot more. I enjoy watching such epic films for the first time late on. Just having the time to approach them whenever I want is nice
You don't need to rush LotR or Shawshank, they will still be excellent whenever you get to them.
I’ve never seen Avatar (movie, not the anime)
The Lion King. Beauty and the Beast. Frozen.
GoT because I'd read the first two books and got bored of a medieval soap opera where the writer substitutes misery porn for a plot.
Breaking Bad because Bryan Cranston vaguely irritates me (I don't know why, I'm sure he's a lovely man).
Zombie related stuff because seriously, it was non-stop shit zombie movies for almost a decade and I'm bored of it. It's just become another lazy trope. Exception: Zombieland.
Everything I've seen and heard indicates that he is in fact a wonderful person. But I'm not going to argue with you, because I have such an intense hatred for Hugh Grant and Richard Gere. And I don't have a rational explanation as to why.
Breaking Bad because Bryan Cranston vaguely irritates me (I don’t know why, I’m sure he’s a lovely man).
It is honestly refreshing to see this kind of honesty including not knowing why.
The Office. Arrested Development. Parks and Recreation. Breaking Bad. Game of Thrones.
A lot of early 90s late 80s comedies. As a kid I always just thought it was adults acting really dumb. And for the most part I still think that about that era.
Maybe because cocaine and pills?
I realized have never seen a single episode of 24.
Rick and Morty
Keeping Up with the Kardashians
Friends and the office.
Breaking Bad, Parks and Rec, The Office, The Wire, Game of Thrones, John Wick
Sopranos, Breaking Bad, The Goonies, Gremlins, the new Avatar, most Star Trek movies, any movie like La La Land, Finding Nemo, Frozen, a lot more.
Name a popular live action show from the past maybe close to a decade or sooner that aired in America and I probably have not seen it. Or if I have, it's because my parents watch it and I happen to be in the area for a little bit.
Breaking Bad, Star Wars, Game of Thrones, Avatar,
Pulp fiction for the movie, and friends for the show
That applies to all Disney movies for me. The last one i saw was The Beauty and the Beast when it came out. My then girlfriend dragged me to the cinema to see it. It wasn't awful but I had no inclination to see another one ever since.
The Godfather. And I don't really plan on seeing it because I don't like the genre or those tropes.
I hear good things about How I Met Your Mother but I'm too lazy to pillage it. Arrgh!

Most of the "current" ones because I have not really watched TV for years. I see a lot of stuff on social media about them which is the only way I know that they exist.
I'd tell you about the popular movie I haven't seen, but the first rule says I can't talk about it.
The Walking Dead, Keeping up with the Kardashians, Jersey Shore
