I’m always late to stuff.
Saw Brokeback in 2006 and it made an impact, but it didn’t knock me senseless until I saw it again in 2008.
Totally missed The West Wing (too busy watching the new channel, HGTV), now I own 6 seasons in my Amazon library, and have some episodes memorized (Night Five, Dead Irish Writers, Posse Comitatus).
Never saw Law & Order until it started rerunning on USA & WGN.
I don’t get HBO, never subscribed. So naturally I missed S&TC, actively made fun of it as idiotic fluff, and boycotted the movies (which I would still do, and never spend $$ to see it).
Now I’m on a sort of work hiatus and, though I SWORE I would be productive and wouldn’t sit around and watch daytime TV, who knew E! runs 6 episodes every afternoon.
And it’s funny.
I can only imagine how much is cut out, so I might actually have to rent some of the better episodes.
It’s not perfect, and I do a fair amount of eye-rolling at some of the stupid things these women come up with to worry about, but it’s definitely entertaining and downright clever.
I wonder what else I have missed?
