To clarify, this does not refer to automobile spoilers, although they also should not exist for this reason:
Minivans should not have spoilers. End of story.
I am not ashamed to admit that I set up calendar reminders for season premieres of my favorite shows. The hardest period of time is that between the end of summer and the start of fall television. Miraculously, I made it through this difficult period of time (congratulations are welcome) and excitedly programmed my DVR.
However, in the time since the airing of season finales in May, my personal schedule has readjusted; I no longer plan my day around being available to watch shows in live time.
Of course, my internal clock will adjust and soon I would rather go without groceries than miss the 9:00 start time of the promised-to-be-dramatic new episode of Grey's Anatomy.
I am sure we can all relate to the disappointment we have experienced to learn preemptively (via the Internet) when the title character was revealed in the finale of HIMYM, or that Huck was framed as the one who shot President Fitzgerald Grant, or who the next American Idol is (JK, no one watches that anymore).
I know it's hard to resist posting/tweeting those "OMG!" moments so that everyone else can recognize that you are the most dedicated fan, but try to hold off on doing so for those of us who have lives that do not (yet) revolve around television.
