Kings: 1

[gategrrl]

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)

It is an interesting show, isn't it. :)

We're really enjoying the show. It's like The West Wing but with more back-stabbing. Hope NBC gives it a chance, though I can see that it probably wont last beyond one season, if that.
