Am I The Only One?

secret life

With it being summer and there not being a lot of things to watch on tv, I thankfully do have something to watch.  It has turned into an obsession, maybe an even embarassing obsession, but an obsession none the less.  I can't believe I am making this statement, but I LOVE Secret Life Of The American Teenager.  I understand that I am 29 years old.  I know that the acting is horrible.  I know that the storylines are horrible.  I know that if I were into drinking on Monday nights this would make an incredible drinking game, but I must dvr it every Monday.

Not only do I dvr it, but I will not watch anything else on my dvr until I watch the most recent episode. Every episode I say to myself, Amy and Ricky better not break up.  Then when the episode is done I frantically search the internet for spoilers for next weeks episode.  It is sick.  I don't care.

For anyone who isn't familiar with the show it is ABC family on Monday nights at 7 pm.  The series started with a freshman in high school goes to band camp, meets the high school bad boy, has sex for the first time and gets pregnant.  I use the term loosely but the series has evolved from there.  They are now into season three or four, not really sure because they have like 12 episodes, then go on a three month hiatus and do another 12 episodes, not really sure how you count that in terms of seasons.  Anyways, the dialgoue is horrific.  It is as bad as 7th heaven and created by the same woman, but not gonna lie, I loved 7th heaven as well.  They use the word sex about every three minutes, the high schoolers spend their entire episode pondering whether or not to have sex, talking about their parents about pondering whether or not to have sex, some actually do have sex, and some continue to sit and ponder.  Like I said, it sounds awful, right?  But I can't help it, I am addicted.  I guess I just want to know, am I the only one???
