Saturday Night:
The Guy: Rants on about how he doesn't like to bother getting emotionally invested in TV shows these days, because they are inevitably not given a chance by Network Suits to get their legs and gain their audience, and get quickly canceled.
Me: But there's this new show some online friends of mine have been raving about--it's called Kings, and it takes place in an alternate world and---
The Guy: I don't care. It'll be canceled just as I get into it.
Sunday Night:
Me: (checking the schedule around 8pm, I stumble upon a show and start watching it) Thinking: Hey, this IS decent! (Gets up to help a child get ready for bed--pauses the show, digital is GREAT! Comes back to the couch to see that the Guy is inhabiting now. He unclicks pause, and the show continues)
The Guy: (a few minutes later) Do you have this series set on record?
Me: Kings? (immediately sets show on series record)
