The Expanse is absolutely one of, if not the, best sci-fi shows ever made. There are another 3 books which haven't been adapted into the show (yet?). There's a sizeable time gap between where the show ends and when thee final 3 books take place. And they started setting up the plot of the final 3 books in the show. There's definitely room for a follow-up movie or revival. But the whole book series (as well as the numerous short-stories set within the same universe) is totally worth a read (or audiobook listen). The ending is bittersweet, but I've never got such a satisfying end to such an epic story. Then the epilogue knocked me on my ass and left me wanting so much more.
My answer to the question, though, is Breaking Bad. I got it recommended so many time. I sat down and tried to start it 3 or 4 times and just couldn't get hooked by the first couple of episodes. It wasn't until someone forced me to watch the entire first season. I got hooked by the episode where Walt blows up Tuco with the fulminated mercury.
