What, more talk of tv?

All day I've been dithering. I can't decide to watch Torchwood or not. I mean, I  know it is wonderful and everything, but I feel a bit guilty. I haven't seen any Doctor Who and it feels like I should, before.

But, I felt a similar feeling about Stargate Atlantis. The only thing that made that better was that I had watched many episodes of SG1 over the years. Sure, it's been haphazard and almost accidental, but I knew the back-story and could follow the plot easily. I knew the characters and don't get too confused when reading fics with crossovers (I still am a bit iffy on Mitchell. I've only seen one episode with him.) Plus, I'm making up for that now, slowly working my way through all of SG1.

I feel worse about the Doctor Who/Torchwood thing. I don't particularly want to watch Doctor Who. I know, it is also supposed to be wonderful and shiny and everything that is good. I just. I have some strange compulsion to not watch it. I've had similar feelings for other things, and I can't do anything to overcome it. I refused to watch Firefly for years.I held out on Supernatural until just a few weeks ago. I'm slowly working up to The Sentinel, too.

Only, I've finally gotten around to watching Merlin. Something about watching it made me want to watch Torchwood. I've been watching the first episode in bits and pieces until I fall back to Merlin. It is a strange form of ADD, I supose.

If I don't get through the first season of Torchwood soon I might do something drastic like watch Life On Mars, yet another thing I should have seen already. I mean, I've downloaded it on two seperate computers. You think it'd be watched by now.

Damn my strange form of tv series comitment-phobia. There really is something wrong with my brain.
