Addicted to...

I'm a self-confessed TV addict. Despite the widespread of pirated TV series on DVD like House (Oh I LOVE House!), Grey's Anatomy (Love it too!), CSI (My first love in TV series), Lost (still waiting for the next season. calling on AXN!) etc., I still prefer catching each episode on the boob tube. Aside from the fact that I restrain myself from buying pirated copies, I enjoy looking forward to each and every episode every week. I get a certain rush from making sure that I am home to catch my favorite TV program. Until HEROES came into my life.

I have heard and read about Heroes since the beginning of the year. Everyone who's seen it, seemed to rave about it. Save the cheerleader, save the world. What's that?! I became interested. So, my friend Agnes, who excitedly gave me her (pirated) copy of episodes 1-9, just to satisfy my curiousity. I am soooo glad that she did! I can't get enough of it!

After my husband (whose geekiness was aroused by this series) and I did a marathon of all 9 episodes (Believe me, each episode will leave you anxiously anticipating what will happen next!), I immediately went out to get a copy of the rest of season 1 (episodes 10-12). Didn't care if it was pirated. Much to my disappointment, there was none available yet! Waaahhh! Bitin!

We searched and searched, but it wasn't really available in the market just yet. Desperate, I was already thinking of downloading the next episodes from the net. Who cares if I leave the computer running overnight?! But thank God (really. thank you God!), my hubby found out that his officemate is also a Heroes fan, who, religiously downloads each episode as soon as it's available on the net! Woohoo!!! We not only have the entire season 1, we also have season 2's episodes 1-5!

I SO wanted to do a marathon of all 5 episodes, but I am trying hard to resist the temptation, so I don't run out of episodes to watch and get bitin again. I make sure that I have 2 episodes in the can before watching one. We are to watch episode 3 of season 2, and waiting for our copy of episode 6, so we can move on to episode 4. Can't wait!

(I hear that they started showing in on Star World, but I have really seen it yet.)
