A big pet-peeve of mine is when people get so caught up in television series. Honestly... they become obsessed. I've seen them all come together and have whole conversations on people and plots that don't even exist. I mean--some become emotionally attached. What a waste of time. "No one talk to me on Thursday night between the block time of 8:00-9:00. My time has been COMPLETELY devoted to _____________... " or "Oh my gosh! Did you see that so-and-so is a double-agent and she is secretly dating one of the members of the black-ops division..." Blah, blah, blah. You might as well draw a big bullseye and tape it to your forward and then stand in front of the media. You are the target. You have been sucked in.
These were my thoughts about two months ago. One night my friend Aly introduced me to Alias. Now, if you will, I am my biggest pet-peeve. I have been so drawn into this show I feel like its become apart of me. Sometimes, I feel if I don't watch an episode, Sydney Bristow and Michael Vaughn are going to be sent on another mission without me. I mean, I watched an entire season in three days! Who does that?! I am the biggest target! No, not even a target. They don't have to aim for me because I willingly walk in the media's front door, pop some corn, sit down, and ask for more... I'm truly pathetic.
Really, this post is sent to all of the those who are dedicated fans of the current television series out there. I apologize for my previous thoughts of your stupidity. It seems that now I am one of you... Thank you for the invite...

Now you know why we won't talk to you on the phone during Prison Break, Heros, Law and Order or the Super Bowl!!!
I am so sorry that it has taken me FOREVER to get to this post...it doesnt mean I dont love you! I love the post though, love it, love it! Only my sister can adequately describe the love/hate relationship of a tv show. I for one am not addicted to ANY tv show... I better run though, "Lost" is on and then "Friday Night Lights" so don't call me ;)
