how many episodes do you give a drama?

if you're watching something and you arent feeling it, how many chances do you give it?

4-5 - except it's absolutely not my taste than 2-3. Sometimes I will put a drama only on hold and continue later on - I don't like dropped dramas- an unfinished business usually kills me, even if it's just a drama,omg.

If it's something I really don't feel like watching I'll end up dropping it/putting it on hold ... But I try to finish all dramas I've started like watching 1 ep in 1 month XDD

I finished MSOAN as soon as last ep got subbed. I was refreshing the page like a lunatic and when it got subbed it made my day. I just love that drama ^^

I don't like to drop dramas but once I dropped one I never come back to it. I drop a drama after 4-6 episodes or at the middle of it or even after one episode. But I never rate it, unless it really pissed me off. :D

I dropped Zenkai Girl because the first episode really bored me and made me feel that it is just not worth watching.
I started to watch Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac then I don't why, I couldn't finish it. After a few days I tried to complete it but it just seemed such a waste of time, so I ended up dropping it.

I never really set a number but when I look at my drop list it seems that I give dramas a long time to get better. sometimes 10 out of 16 and then I usually just can't stand it anymore and drop it. I'd say about 1/2 way with the exception of a really crap drama and then usually 4 or 5 then...see ya stinker!

Well same here. Couldn't get through 1st episode of Oh Dad/Oyaji and Aijou Ippon

8 episodes.

If the story doesn't turn, if it doesn't get me hooked, if I like sleep more than watching it (I instantly pull an all-nighter if it does), if I put off watching it to do chores all day, I drop it. This rarely happens. I usually try to finish stuff that I started (I just feel it should be that way--if you started it, finish it) but lately I don't feel obliged to torture myself into completing dramas that I think are going nowhere.

Usually I watch the first episode and if I liked it, I go on to the next. If I didn't, I stop. Sometimes I get back to it later, though. ;)

(I always watch the first episode. And if I don't like it I hate those 1-hour-episode-dramas. :D)
