Hooked
God, I am so hooked on a TV series, it’s an addiction that I can’t beat. You know what, I don’t really need another addiction to add to my already long list of addictions! No drugs, thankfully, but I have been renting and watching some TVB series and it hasn’t been good for me, really. I slept at 5.30 in the morning because I spent most of the time turning around in my seat (I was trying desperately to concentrate on my work) to catch a bit of the action.
To top it all off, my husband bought the entire season of ‘Seinfeld’ and has been watching it religiously in the room…like it’s his bible to life! OK, so I like it too but it disrupts my work. And I can’t tell him to cut it out cause I won’t get to watch it either, so….erm…well, fine! I am pretty much to blame too. I know I know!
And we’ve also got the first season of ‘LOST’ and so far, I am currently hooked on three TV shows that I can wrangle out of….it’s like fleas in my hair. You keep shaking and shaking until your teeth is loose...and they’re still there, you know what I mean.
It’s not cheap being addicted to this stuff as well. For one, they cost an arm and a leg to watch and with those rented TVB series, I don’t even get to keep it and rewatch the series again later on! Dumb, right? But I don’t want to go out and buy every single little series there is on the planet without knowing whether the series is good or not, so, I guess that’s the price I would have to pay for that reluctance.

You're not alone.... I'm hooked on more than just a mere 3 TV shows. CSI alone has 3 different series and I watch all of 'em. I think I kinda like Lost as well, but I never watch the premiere but if I do, I'm sure I'll be a lifelong fan as well. But the series I love most is Medium and Patricia Arquette is the main character. I just love it love it love it! To top it all off, I'm catching TVBs as well, my hubby download all the latest stuff off the net. Guess my life is pathetic!

Mindy,
wow, i was almost apologetic to the rest of the world because they're busy working their butts off and stuck behind an office table while I will my life away infront of the tube, but here you are....professing the same weakness! thank you! I am not the only one hooked as well, eh??? :-)
I wish my husband would download all those TVB stuff for me as well...but he'd rather be watching his '24' and 'Lost' instead of downloading all those stuff for me.
Besides, between me and my husband...i think i am the techy one. He just knows how to put a computer together, that's all. Hee hee....
