What's a series (movie, book, tv, comic etc.)
You wish you could finish?
Levin Thumps (never got to read Wrath of Ezra)
Sword of Truth (finished Temple of Winds/storms)
Bleach(around episode 150 or so with the Bounts and Kariya trying to blow up soul society)
Be glad you didn't finish the sword of truth. He should've ended before he did. It became so repetitive. It was bad.
I wish I could finish the comic series Ten Grand but I can't...and I won't. The series started out with Ben Templesmith (one of my favorite artists) and J Michael straczynski. Ben started suffering from some personal issues so he disappeared for a bit supposedly never contacting him in the process. J Michael replaced him with another artist whose style is completely different from his (Ben's style is extremely unique and many artist attempt to copy it) and I just can't bring myself to read the comics now. The Ben's art was a key piece to the story.
Locke & Key Alpha 02 is coming out this month and I don't want to read it. Just because it'll be the last one ever :(
On the bright side, Joe Hill said comics is always something he's going to do.

Definetly got repetitive the last couple books, but you should at least try to read through to faith of the fallen, that is one of the single best novels I have ever read
I could not finish Mockingjay... Got halfway through and got bored...
However, cannot wait for the next, and final, Percy Jackson book next year!!!
Still haven't finished Dexter, have the last season on DVR but still haven't took the time to watch them.

That's what i heard, and think that's why I haven't. I loved that series and if the last season is as bad as what people say I'm going to be so disappointed.

Dodged a bullet there...I swear that season gave me flashbacks to how bad season 6 was *shudders*

I stopped watching after season 5. Got so boring.
Also Fringe. After season 2 I was pretty much fed up with it.

Hall said they felt they couldn't top Trinity, so they started focusing on Dexter's various relationships. That's when it got bad. They could've stopped with Rita getting axed and Dexter catching Trinity and I would've been a-okay.

I got a bit fed up with Fringe as well but I'm glad I watched it to the end. It got better in my opinion.
In regards to Dexter the writing began to lack the creativity that I adored before season six, things became eventually really predictable. With season 8 I don't think they were fully focusing on it...throughout the season there had been discussion about a Dexter spin-off. If that is true, then I'm sure that's where their focus lied.

***SPOILER***A spinoff wouldn't surprise me. Supposedly Showtime told the writers they could do anything but kill Dexter off. That would explain how he rode into a friggin' hurricane and lived.
Misfits, game of thrones, too many anime to list. I have a bad habit of starting and not finishing things.

I think I've just had enough. If they do decide to do a spin-off, I don't think I'll be watching it.
I stopped reading comics YEARS ago, I a Marvel man and I've missed SOOOOO many of the big events. The last one I read was Civil War! I hear Fear Itself was good and Secret War too.
But on a different slant on the topic, one of my biggest desires is for the producers to finish/continue Heroes and Firefly!!! Oh man, but are my fav shows of all time and were definitely cut too short because of knobish executive decisions. Sigh.
Phsyren, i bought the first and then the second book... an then i could not find the rest of the series, until i stumbled across the next seven books in Barnes & Nobles, but conveniently enough, i did not have my wallet about my person. might go back and get them all one day, really want to see if they kill that mysterious guy with that big @$$ gun at the end of two.

Yes Heroes!!!
In the middle of watching The Wire. Just started season 4 (out of 5). Great series. Deep, really makes you think about drug laws and stuff, no matter what your stance might be. Wish I had more time to watch it faster.
Season 2 was meh, though.

That reminds me I never finished (I think this is what it was called) the Vertigo series of spiderman back in the early/mid 90s

Oh wow...Theres been quite a few Spidey comics since then including Dan Slott's controversial Superior Spider-Man...that I actually enjoy.
Has anyone watched the tv show Hannibal? I started watching it...then stopped. It got a bit boring.
It's decent. The movies are better.
And anyone watch 666 Park Avenue? I've seen half of it. Miss-matched episodes.

Yeah i think I stopped reading comics at around Spawn #32 if that tells you anything. Now just collect a few here and there.

Yeah I've always loved Todd McFarlane... Spent two years buying every number one issue Image put out when he broke off from Marvel. Even have a bunch of the "Wizard" price guide card inserts to go with the #1's.

Yes. There are 9 books in the series thus far. The first five revolve around the Titanomachy and the second five revolve around the Gigantomachy...
I've been watching The 4400 on Netflix recently... It's interesting for a while but like halfway through season 2 it starts getting boring. Kinda forcing myself to finish it, because I don't like leaving stuff unfinished.

Same reason I've seen all the Twilights..... Ugh..... Darn ex girlfirend made me watch the first so had to finish it out. I still cut myself sometimes over watching all of them.
I got 90% of the way through "The Shield" and never finished. I will shortly.
I keep getting told to finish Attack on Titan. School has kept me from bingeing on visual media at the moment
Breaking Bad. I love the show, but haven't brought it upon myself to watch the last two seasons. I will eventually, though!

Thankfully I figured out all my relationships weren't working before I had to sit through one of those. Ugh. I feel your pain, though.
