I think Breaking Bad belongs in the middle one with Futurama because I don’t think it required intelligence to be entertained.
My first watch through was purely a “watch Hal do some crazy shit” where the action entertained and everything else was just an annoyance. I just didn’t care about the moral implications or whatever message the show was trying to make, I was happy watching an “outsider enters dangerous world he knows little about and fucks shit up”.
Second watch through I stopped seeing him as Hal and disliked him before the end of the first episode. If anything, he was more like Malcolm (book smart but otherwise dumb and entitled).
Though maybe that’s more just about BB being entertaining even if you aren’t the target audience.
I feel like every time I tried watching Big Bang Theory, I got this vibe.
“haha that guy is such a fucking nerd!” was virtually every laugh-track riddled joke.
You’re just not the target audience, as shown in this handy diagram:
