I added Dark Matter, Dollhouse and The Expanse to the list.

Going through this list and with the meme rules, it made me realize some things. Obviously there's quite a lot of shows I have definitely watched more than one episode of, as this is what happened when I used to watch network television where there would be constant reruns of things that weren't of the shows I would catch weekly. Some I even have episodes of on VHS when I would record just randomly (and sadly not all of those shows would end up getting on DVD or even available for streaming nowadays, which is unfortunate). There's also shows that I would've categorized as being an all-time favorite, but only for specific seasons, like Veronica Mars, or shows that I'm sure I watched at some point in my early childhood but I tend to prefer or remember their movie counterparts more, such as Highlander or The Jetsons or Power Rangers. Even things like My Little Pony, I grew up with G1 rather than the newest generation. There's also shows where I never watched a single episode, but I definitely know of it, either through fandom osmosis or because I saw it being advertised a lot that I feel like I knew it.

This is just reminding me how much I used to watch with television. And believe me, this list isn't even half of the things I watched, either religiously or just casually.

Yeah, the same happened with me, too. I started watching shows less and less over the years, mainly due to being disinterested in what was coming out, but a lot of times it was due to not having the streaming service they were on and no DVDs available. I went from watching so much television to barely watching much live television at all. It's such a strange thing, really.

Getting into Asian dramas was such a blessing, it got me introduced to things I didn't know existed and didn't know I needed in my life, and there's a wide range of them out there.
