Theory 1: TV on DVD is the new cocaine

"If you are a racist, I will attack you with the North."

So during the school year, I really don't have time to watch television except for Scrubs and random reruns of sitcoms.  I really like to watch these new shows coming out but I usually miss a few episodes and I don't like watching new ones without knowing the previous context so I just stop watching.

Anyway, over the past few months I have procured a massive amount of television on DVD.  I have all three seasons of Arrested Development, three seasons of the Office, and Heroes Season 1.  In addition, I got some episodes of Entourage backlogged and Extras On Demand.

It comes to my attention that TV on DVD is a harmful drug.  Probably more addictive than cocaine, although that is just a hypothesis that needs testing.  I've already plowed my way through the first two seasons of the Office.  At first it starts off as a casual thing, maybe one episode a day.  But things quickly turned for the worst.

Now I go on episode splurges, maybe four at a time.  Once I go through all three seasons I'm going to crash and probably go into withdrawals.  I mean, here I am living the luxury of overdosing on a finite amount of new episodes but as soon as Season 3 is done I'll have to watch them once a week like everyone else.

My plan?  Switch to a new television series to ease the pain.  Probably Arrested Development.  And thus I spin on this downward spiral of television induced destructiveness.  Hopefully, I'll finish it all before school starts and my grades are affected.

Hopefully.

Probably not.
