I give stuff 3-5 episodes to hook me. And I feel that's plenty generous. Not sitting around for the slow burn. Be interesting or doing something that builds interest. Don't do a bunch of boring stuff and then have an episode 2 seasons deep that "makes it amazing". That's not good writing imo. That's an overly complex way of making an interesting point. Oh and certain things I won't give more than one episode. Any sitcom, or similar serialized show like House or whatever, I universally dislike and won't give a chance past one episode.
