My Heroes

I used to have this little ritual I did whenever I watched Buffy (and Angel after it, but more to keep up the tradition than anything). My TV stand was on casters back then, so every Tuesday night I would roll the TV right up to the couch, where I would sit with my face about six inches from the screen for the entire episode. It didn't feel right to watch first-run episodes any other way. I wanted to be as close as I could to the action, to immerse myself in that world, with no room for any peripheral distractions.

I haven't felt the desire to do that with any other TV show since.

Until last night, about a minute into Heroes.

I couldn't, of course, because my TV's no longer on casters, and the little armoir I've got it in is hard to move. I considered camping out on the floor in front of it, but, well... if you've seen my floor, you'd understand. So I had to settle for literally sitting on the edge of my seat for the whole hour.

You guys, I think I might finally have new favorite show.
