I watch stuff I don't like, but I'd like to believe I'm quieter about it. I've stopped chasing people down to tell them how much Temperance Brennan annoys me, and I'll only mention my VD issues when someone else brings up the topic.
Watching a show where I was invested and the last two seasons have caused me emotional pain...I don't think it's going to get any better, guys. And the way these people complain, I do mean pain. VD doesn't bother me. I just don't think it's good. There's a difference.
I guess there some people who feel they've invested so much time to something that even after they don't like it, they'd rather make themselves miserable than "give up".
Oh hell no. I've given myself permission to abandon shows that frustrate me that much -- Lost, Heroes, and House to name a few. Why spend the time and equilibrium on something that gives me no enjoyment in return?
Except for Lost, I'm with you on the other two. It actually felt good to bail on Heroes and House and (whisper) Bones.
Apparently I am morgana because I have given up that exact group of shows nAnd Bones.
Why spend the time and equilibrium on something that gives me no enjoyment in return?
Dude. At least VD gives me Damon/Alaric. Shipping that might never get old.
I wasn't able to make myself pull the plug on Angel in mid Season 3 or Buffy once Season 7 started taking a nosedive, but those shows had a stronger hold on me than anything before or since and I learned from the pain. Lost, Heroes, Grey's Anatomy, and Stargate: Universe all got the boot as soon as the annoyance exceeded the entertainment value.
This has me so excited just imagining the screencaps: [link]
Yee-hah! Ride'm cowboys!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, that made my

Looks like there's going to be a time-travel ep where Sam and Dean go back to 1861 to find Samuel Colt. Glad to see they are pursuing the Colt backstory more. Plus, seeing the boys in the Old West? Ohhhh myyy...
