I'm a spoiler-aholic and -
Oct. 1st, 2007 10:18 amI'm a spoiler-aholic, and I admit it. I love spoilers. Usually, they don't bother me (and indeed, they still don't). But I am discovering that the more I stay away from website dedicated to the shows I like, like Heroes, or Dr Who, or whatever, I find that I'm enjoying the episodes themselves a lot more. The Guy is an admitted spoilerphobe. He hates them; and when I know something he doesn't, more than not, I spill the beans and he gets ticked off at me.
Without meaning to, for instance, I blurted out who Jack Harkness on Torchwood/Dr Who *really* is and the Guy stared at me wide-eyed and flabberghasted. *
So, I'm not announcing that from now on I am avoiding spoilers like a plague. No way, I enjoy them way too much. But I don't think I'm going to seek them out actively like I used to for Stargate and Heroes, etc. They aren't killing my fun, but they are cramping the fun. I guess I'm in the spoiler-no-mans-land.
* Honestly, though? Big anticlimax. Like, that was the big mystery, "There is Another"? That was the big secret? Big whup, little pay-off.
