Rick & Morty for me. I thought it’s a funny show, at least the first couple seasons I watched of it. I stopped watching it because of how obnoxious the fans are, actually ruining the show for me. It got to a point where I’d watch an episode, hear a joke get repeated, and think to myself “Oh great, this will be the line that I hear everybody saying for the next six months”, to the extent that I get distracted by my own annoyance. Now I have this mental association with the show and the fans and I just can’t stand to watch it anymore.
This was all before the shit with Roiland came out, for what it’s worth. But that’s another reason I struggle to enjoy the show anymore.
They did a really good job. I was catching up on the show the other day and I knew Roiland got replaced at some point but I didn’t know when. So I waited for the voices to noticeably change and after I finished season 7 I realized I already watched an entire season with the new voice actors without realizing.

on the last point: Roiland is now completely out. And the even managed to find voice actors who can copy the voices perfectly
Also: the replacement for him and how they explain the change on Solar Opposites is hilarious.

I never understood not watching a show because of the fanbase. I watch plenty of shows without ever interacting with the fandom at all.
What’s stopping you from watching the show without visiting discussion forums or reading youtube comments about it?
