I would also rather give CB at least a few more. It's unfair to judge a series by a couple episodes, particularly the first two episodes. The whole thing only ran 26 episodes; maybe we don't need to hit them all but I at least would like to get to the point where I'm supposed to appreciate the genius. I think everybody on this page has taken a stab at the first couple before.

I don't wanna do Frankenstein. Ever. I know that makes me a terrible person but every time I download an Audible of something more than 100 years old, it grinds. I do this for fun and Frankenstein has too much of a "take your medicine" vibe for me.

Yeah. I think my enjoyment of dated literature probably colors my perception of Frankenstein a bit. That's fair.

That said, I'd at least like to watch CB enough to figure out where the "western" part comes in. It feels much more like a gangster/heist series to me than western.

Edit: Might also give Firefly another shot, cause that definitely had a western feel.
