As a political wonk, I have been looking forward to watching but if Wayne hated all the people, I probably will as well. We are a lot alike on this stuff.

Same for me with Mad Men. I couldn't relate to anyone and no one to really root for. - Krusty Feb 20, 13:01

- Walking Dead I watch because there is no other zombie shows on tv. And its decent enough. ('very good' on the Jovian scale) -- nm - Jovian Feb 20, 12:56
you should still check it out. the performances in S1 are really really good. -- nm - Jovian Feb 20, 12:52
Mad Men also does nothing for me -- nm - Beryllium Feb 20, 12:49
I think if I had known that everyone is awful going on, I'd have enjoyed it more. - Inigo Feb 20, 12:48
