Watch me go from...

"Hey, this is kind of a neat show" to "What the fuck is this shit?"

Okay, I get that he thinks she's his Twu Wuv. And that's all fine and good, even if I think it's kind of a stupid plot device.

BUT SHE'S MARRIED.

Yes, she's separated. You know what? I DON'T CARE. She's STILL MARRIED. Having sex with someone who's married to someone else is NOT COOL. Especially if you've only known them for, presumably, A FEW DAYS. Or even a few weeks.

So. I'll watch the show next week. But it's on notice. If they don't deal with the fact that she's married real damn soon, then I won't watch it anymore. Adultery BAD, and I'm not going to pretend it's okay just because the premise of the show is intriguing and the male lead is hot.

ETA: The bitter irony here is that this particular episode was all about what constitutes "honor." Who has it and who doesn't. And this guy, who supposedly has it, IS SLEEPING WITH ANOTHER MAN'S WIFE.

FAIL. You keep using that word, "honor." I don't think it means what you think it means.
