The art of reading television
I don't get much time nowadays to watch TV - it's a definite luxury if I have an hour or two to myself to brainlessly plonk myself down and lapse into a semi-vegetative state. Being an avid reader since primary school, I've discovered that reading transcripts, episode reviews, quotes, forums and the like are just as good as the real thing, plus you consume it all in a fraction of the time. And no ad breaks! You won't find me being worried about "spoilers". Nosiree.
Spoil away.

Here are some of my favourite reading sites.
Television Without Pity. Oh the painful sweetness of the snark.
Tabula Rasa. Fantastic Buffy site with fairly up to date and incredibly detailed multiple reviewed episodes.
The World of the Bold and the Beautiful. Sparing myself the get-me-a-bucket inducing vibe of actually watching the show, yet still feeding my unhealthy interest in the show. Except they killed off my favourite character.
Whose Line Is It Anyway? features a heavy amount of "you had to be there" sprinkled with a touch of "and why is that funny to anyone other than Americans" but as I've watched pretty much all these eps, I find it hilarious. Theatre Sports is one of man's greatest inventions.
TORN is my daily Lord of the Rings update fix. I know it's not a TV show, but the amount of cool stuff you come across here is fantastic for the obsessed.
