HBO wasn’t the ubiquitous thing it is now. Lots of people didn’t have access when the show first aired, and I never bought a ton of DVD box sets or anything.
I never had HBO. It's been available in its entirety online for ~13 years now. And it's constantly referred to as one of the greatest shows of all time.

So yeah -- strange.

Finished season one late last week. Holy shit that scene with his mom on the stretcher.

Started season 2 yesterday, and I'm starting to not like Meadow.

I think every fan goes through that. She gets considerably less annoying in the later seasons
