The one thing I never did before starting a new show

I used to just hit play on whatever looked good and zone out for like an hour before realizing I was lost. Then last month I started a crime drama and my buddy asked me who the main detective was and I had no clue. Turns out I was skipping the first episode every single time because I didn't realize the streaming app had autoplay set to the second episode. For months I thought shows just started in the middle of the action. Now I check the episode list before hitting play, and I also read the two sentence synopsis on the show page. It feels silly but it uncovered a whole layer of story I was missing. Has anyone else ever accidentally started a show on the wrong episode and had to rewatch it? I went back and watched episode one of that crime drama and it made everything click, but now I'm wondering how many other shows I ruined for myself.
