troublesome

This is seriously starting to take over my life. But, I do plan to finish season 2 by the end of this weekend. Can't. Stop. Watching.

There are some definite up sides to waiting this long to finally watch this show. I can watch back-to-back, commercial free (sweeeeet!) episodes at the push of a button and not have to worry about buying DVDs, returning DVDs, or dealing with endless wait times after devastating cliff hangers. The down sides, though, kind of suck. Can't search for anything online or poke around for theories about what the hell is going on without worrying about spoilers (learned this the hard way). I'm still only watching season 2, so a ton of stuff has happened since this originally aired..no discussions with friends because they're long past where I'm at now. And, needless to say, getting caught up in all of this is a MAJOR time suck. I guess this is the only good thing about our slow season in the retail world; plenty of time for watching. Still, it's almost three o'clock in the afternoon on Sunday (technically, this is my Saturday) and not only have I not gotten showered or dressed yet, but my house is a mess, I have a mountain of laundry to do and an even bigger mountain of dishes to wash. Oh, and I have a massive load of a dog sitting here with sadder-than-sad puppy dog eyes, waiting to be walked.

TV, how I hate you sometimes.

Anyway, back to watching. Though I may have some complaints, I'd like to thank those of you who suggested I give this show a shot. Love it. Totally worth the hours of my time that I've wasted thus far.

Just stick with it. After season two the show hits a few bumps in the road. But it all seems to pay off in the end.

Yep, Daniel B. is spot on--things get kind of dodgy from season 3 - part of season 4, but when the show gets its groove back, it is so worth it.
I'm glad you're watching & enjoying so far! Can't wait 'til you're caught up so we can talk about what's going on! ^_^

P.S. I think you can watch full episodes of the current season on abc.com when you're ready. ;)
