Then why do you watch?
The same reason I always pick the same bathroom at work to poop in; I'm a creature of habit lol

That's probably the best answer for which I could have hoped!

In all seriousness, how does one use the restroom during the zombie apocalypse? Especially if you're in the woods. You almost have to bring a bathroom buddy to watch your back while you're indisposed . . . :o

I agree with specialsauce. It seems to be the latest trend. Half seasons followed by big breaks. luckily they usually do a Walking Dead marathon before each season to catch up on things. Supernatural does it too. It seems they make a new episode about every month.

I watch the show because the show is cool. I get annoyed that I have to wait for anything. I get annoyed that I have to wait so long in between Suns seasons too. Doesn't stop me from watching.

My question was about the last comment. Losing all attachment.

Define attachment.

I see what he is thinking. You start to forget what was happening and time goes by and you lose attachment. Then all of the sudden there are these commercials announcing the return of the show and you think about how you liked the show so much before, but can't remember all the details of what was happening three months earlier and need to refresh your brain.

Of course the question really wasn't for me, but I am a busy body and related to both of you.

I think of attachment as a connection. Not so much of "do you remember the last episode/game." So for me I hear losing attachment and I think losing connection or losing interest.

Yep, exactly what I meant. AMCs midseason hiatus is so long too.
