deird_ljI've been cross-stitching lately, which generally involves me putting TV shows I know well on in the background, so that I have something to keep me from getting bored with the cross-stitchiness.
Anyway...
Lately, my Cross-Stitching Background TV has been Lois & Clark, season 3. All very fun and entertainingly nutty.
Now, though, I've reached an episode I absolutely HATE. Not because it's actually all that bad - but the emotional stuff the characters are going through is just painful, and unnecessarily painful, and I don't want to watch that episode again.
Except...
I was kind of watching them all in order...
So, instead of SKIPPING the episode, and putting the NEXT one on for me to cross-stitch to, like a sensible person would, I have put the episode on, left the room, and retreated to my computer, where I am frantically reading websites and playing solitaire until the episode GOES AWAY.
...because, then, I won't have watched them out of order. But I'll still get to not watch this unwatchable episode.
Yes, I am indeed a loon.

I remember them getting married and finding out it was clone!Lois, but I'm not sure I remember the real!wedding...
...or any of those intervening episodes, actually - I think I'd given up in disgust by that point (sorry!).

Date: 2009-04-07 04:16 am (UTC)Or the one where they got shrunk by Lois' jealous high school friend, and run round in a dolls house, and Clark had to wear scuba gear and pretend to be a marine so that no-one figured out he was Superman?
Or the one where they were trapped in a time loop repeating Christmas Eve over and over again, by a malevolent pixie?
Or the one when a photographer got photos of Lois and Superman in bed together, and used it as proof that Lois was cheating on Clark?
Or the one where everyone was convinced that Jimmy Olsen was Superman's alter ego?
Oh, shame. You're missing out...
