Of the same kinds, class, or nature

It's a weakness on my part, that I let them sour me on the show, but it happened and I can't change it. I haven't watched the show since the Season 1 finale because every time I do, all I can think of is how rude and nasty fandom was and how watching the show itself was no longer enjoyable.

I think, in part, it was because fandom was a big part of my experience with that particular show from the very beginning, from the series premiere (as opposed to other shows I liked before ever entering fandom). Therefore fandom was the biggest part of watching the show, for me.
