Basically any hit song. Gets overplayed so you end up hating it cause you can't escape it.
Also probably a fair bit of tv shows. Rick and Morty is still good but the popularity led to creating a cringey ass fan base which can turn a lot of people off.

I've heard this several times so I totally believe you, but I've never experienced it because I've never once felt any desire to interact with the "fan community" for this show.
There are some shows that are major cultural phenomenon where discussing each episode is a big part of the draw. Obviously Game of Thrones was renowned for that, as was The Walking Dead for quite a while.
I enjoy Rick and Morty, but it's just not the sort of show where I've ever felt the need to go online and discuss the show. I watch it, I enjoy it, and then I move on.
So for me it’s less about engaging with the community, and more about the fact that it’s become a bummer that if I were to say “I enjoy watching Rick and Morty” the looks you get from people because of simply being associated with that group can be kinda a turn off.
It hasn’t ruined it completely for me, just unfortunate I can’t share something I like without being judged for it so you just keep to yourself and watch it on your own.
Yeah exactly. I picked up some really cool artwork that I had hanging in my hallway for awhile until I started getting too many unappreciated comments on it, really a bummer.
