Spoilers..what's the fun in that??
I missed Grey’s Anatomy this last Thursday because I went to my high school BBB District Championship game and I haven’t had time yet to watch it online. So, I Googled Grey’s Anatomy and then I found this website www.tvfanatic.com, which has a bunch of shows you can look at pages for, and I clicked a drop down box and clicked Grey’s Anatomy because I had missed it this past week. So now I am on this webpage titled Grey’s Anatomy Insider and I am thinking “sweet, this could be a fun website since Grey’s is like my favorite show.” On the home page of this website you can get a sneak peek at the next weeks episode. There is also a tab that is dedicated to the quotes from the show . There are groups for the top rated quotes, recent quotes, quotes by episode or quotes from a certain character that you can use as searching tools. There are also other tabs for pictures from the show, episode guides, forums which has like message boards so people can discuss things about the show with other fanatics , and one that is dedicated to giving information about the characters and the cast of the show. Then what really got me was the tab at the top titled Spoilers. I read down a few paragraphs and this website has people asking questions about things that happen in the show and they want to know what is going on before the show actually reveals it. I was kind of upset with this because what is the fun in watching the show when you already know what is going to be revealed. What is the fun if there is no suspense? Because I had found this information of course I had to read it and now I am kind of upset that I did because it ruined the whole show for me. I will still watch it but I won’t like to watch it knowing what is going to be revealed during the episode.

Poor Lydia! I guess you learned your lesson at the website, never click a link titled Spoiler. I know what you mean though, I hate knowing what is going to happen in a show before it happens. It's even hard for me to watch a movie twice just because its so boring to me.
ReplyDeleteI guess its just one of those things....like when your watching a movie with someone and they have already seen it....the whole time people ( well I know I do ) ask whats going to happen...does he do this or does he find that...Its human nature to want to know what is going to happen...but when we find out, we wish we would have waited. Anyway, yeah spoiler is a good name for the tab.
ReplyDeleteSpoilers, yah they are definitely no fun. And trust me, I know how it is when you are watching a movie with someone who has already seen it. AKA, my roommate Sara, she will always quote the next line! I can’t stand it! Even if I had seen the movie before or not, if I wanted to hear Sara repeat the movie I’d ask her to! But instead I popped the movie in! But back to spoilers, I agree, what is the point in watching it if you already know what is going to go down. I guess it may just be me, but I like being surprised.
ReplyDeleteWell theirs a difference on spoilers if they are from the website then ya it sucks because they tell you whats going to happen, but if its just people talking and posting questions and what they think will happen, doesn't meen its true. I do agree though you shouldn't know whats going to happen before it happens, it just ruins everything.
ReplyDeleteI agree, spoilers suck. What is the point of telling people what is going before it happens? If they don't want to get the information by watching the show, then I don't think they are real fans. Now, I can understand watching a movie or episode leaked into the public before it airs. At least you are watching the whole movie and episode. Reading what is going to happen is just stupid. Just watch the show.
