I like The Rocky Horror Picture Show while it has a plot… but about halfway in, it forgets about the plot and devolves into random musical numbers, one after the other. If it kept up its story, I’d enjoy it, but I can only watch the first half before I lose interest.
Similarly I love Hitchikers Guide, and the way it’s written, but at some point it loses enough structure that I no longer enjoy reading it. Essentially it becomes like reading Candide by Voltaire, but still very funny, which isn’t to my taste.
