What type/s of genre or plot do you often avoid?

I try to be very open-minded when choosing dramas or movies to watch. However, these days or should I say because 2020 happened I started avoiding really depressing  or heave dramas/movies. When I see on the synopsis that on e of the main will die or something, I would not watch it at all.  I watch to relieve stress not gain them. Also, political dramas are not my cup of tea at all unless there are some romance and I like the leads, then I'll just skip on the political part.

After saying that I hate dramas/movies that at the end some people die, when thinking about what my favorites are, all of them (probably like 90+ %) had people dying at the end (how ironic of me). 

But is it just me who's avoiding sad ones these days or am I just getting old?  

It is completely understandable that you tend to avoid sad dramas, especially this year that has been very difficult for many people. Dramas are there to entertain us , to make us feel things and of course to make us think. That means, that every person depending on their mood chooses the series that fits their mood better.

Personally, I avoid spoilers and I am not looking at the tags, because I don't want to know if the drama will have a tragic ending or not. The dramas I chose this year haven't changed much. I tend to choose series from different genres, and from heart-warming to tragic. Also, I have some drama 'phases'. I have the ''romance'' phase, the ''mystery-horror'' phase, the ''bl'' phase, the ''watch whatever you find'' phase. 

I didn't  mind when watching a drama that made me cry (and there were a lot this year). What I do though is choosing something different every time. For example after a sad historical drama, I will probably choose something happier and more heart-warming. In that way I don't feel like the sadness overwhelms me. The few episodes that kdrama and jdrama have helps a lot, since no matter how sad it is, it will not have a lot of episodes to make me feel immense sadness. Furthermore, most kdramas make me feel lots of feelings, (sadness, happiness,  excitement, anger) and that is something advantageous, since the drama doesn't only emit one feeling.

What I tend to avoid in general though, are romances that are cheesy with no actual plot (or a very plain and common one). Generally, it depends on the plot. If it seems like something good I will probably watch it.

I'm not a fan of romance so I avoid dramas that seem too focused on that aspect. Other than that I can watch pretty much everything, but I enjoy darker and action packed or sad and angsty shows. I'm also kinda iffy about comedies. I don't dislike comedies in general but I've seen too many cringey 'comedy' scenes in Asian dramas [that could've been funny but were taken too far and therefore lost the appeal]. There are some great comedies out there though so I don't avoid them completely. 

Politics/business/medical... 

Slice of life dramas usually bore me/put me to sleep I usually prefer the opposite of that lmao 

I avoid ghost movies. Also avoid animals movies because the animal always end up scarified snd die

I avoid dramas with tsundere male leads (for the most part. There are only a few exceptions). And dramas that have plots that rely on silly misunderstandings. I'd prefer my characters to communicate. I also hate rape/sexual assault used as plot device or portrayed as romantic.
