    Default Things in TV/Media that you used to like but are now ruined for you

    Inspired by a conversation with a few friends regarding sitcoms.

    I've come to find that any comedy show with a laugh track now I almost instantly despise. It's odd because I grew up in the late 80s early 90s and was fed nothing but sitcoms with laugh tracks. However once I saw a good/great comedy show without a laugh track (in my case I think it was Scrubs) the whole thing was ruined for me. I believe at this point only CBS actually uses them (and they have some of the highest rated comedies, go figure) and I can't even give their shows a look.

    So anyone else have a similar situation? Whether it be a trope or convention that you used to enjoy but are now either tired of or done with all together.

    Bullet time.

    Thought it was cool when the Wachowskis did it. Walked out on the Wonder Woman movie because of it.

    Animated sitcoms. I hate the fact this is the only format we can get mature animation in the US. While I love shows like Rick and Morty I wish we can get more shows like Netflix's Castlevania.

    Most things military related. Bored to death with that stuff and even bored with the kind of characters who comes with it.
