“Don’t Half-ass two things, Whole-ass one thing” - Ron Swanson
In this day and age with the incredible amount of fantastic original and ongoing series out at the moment, it’s a bit hard to resist the temptation to juggle numerous shows at once. I know how it is, you start a couple of pilots, watch a couple more of each, then another show comes off hiatus and before you know it, you’ve half a dozen of shows on the go at the same time, and none of them are getting the right attention.
You love them all, you can rave about them equally, but when it comes down to it, you don’t want to be months behind the rest of the world, and struggling to keep up with a bunch of different stories at once.
I admit, I’m suffering from the same thing. I’ve currently got Jessica Jones, Fargo, Transparent and a bunch of others on the go, but more recently I’ve decided that I’m going to finish Season 1 of the excellent Jessica Jones before moving on. Whether I succeed or not is to be seen, I usually write a review after each episode, so that slows me down, but I want to stick with just one for now.
If you want to binge, feel free, there’s nothing quite like the thrill of watching 100 episodes in a day (Exaggeration), but if you do, think of the wise words of the indomitable Ron Swanson and Whole-ass one thing.
