Argggggggh....
So I was playing around on LJ and happened upon ciachick711's recent post about S5 of Alias, in which she sounded outrageously bitter. And it took EVERY OUNCE of self-control in my body to not click on that lj-cut. I'm spoiler-free and trying to stay that way. But it's so hard. GAAAAAAAAH.
It's one thing to be spoiler-free for GG. I mean, I want to know what's going to happen, and the black bars tempt me as much as the next girl. But in the grand scheme of things, don't we all sort of know what's going to happen? Luke will say yes, either now or later. Rory will go back to school and be fabulously successful, either now or later. It's not as if the journey to those places won't be fabulous and innovative, and it's not as if I'm not excited for September 13--in fact, I've decided to have a party. But GG doesn't have the same sense of suspense going for it.
Alias is hard, though. I really don't know where JJ's taking us after the crash. And the media is just killing me. I think it's partly to do with Jennifer Garner's pregnancy: since there's been so much coverage of her and the way it's being written into the script, nobody is truly spoiler-free this season, which sort of makes it more frustrating not to know. I also keep hearing all these reports of possibly-bad things (A new agent? Please, no. I'm still reconciling with the arrival of Nadia from the end of S3.), which pique my curiosity in a totally irritating way. I really do prefer to be spoiler-free, but still. *sigh* September 29 is a long time from now.
