I watched very little television growing up, in part because my family had it only sporadically and in part because I just didn’t enjoy it—I hated the tense feeling that shows were designed to inspire. And when I went to college, like a good white boy, I embraced my TV ignorance with open pride. It’s not until the past several months that I’ve really started watching and appreciating it, as a pleasant (if sometimes habit-forming) diversion and for the joy of analysis. Now I just feel behind. Watching TV is such hard work! It’s so time-intensive! How will I ever catch up with all of you who have known the satisfaction of a good series since your youth?!
