Haiku about love. Big Love...

Oh, my dear Netflix,
we burned so hot and heavy
when this all began.

Now, affection wanes
as DVDs go unwatched
and barely exchanged.

Should we just end it?
Is it time to bid adieu?
Wait! It's Season Two.

Why you cunning minx!
There's no "long wait" after all...
You're a tricky one.

True love, we don't have
but there's certainly BIG LOVE
for us to enjoy!

Clever HBO,
making me want so much mo'
Leaving us hanging.


So, I've spilled my guts about my deep love for Big Love to you before, but I'll say it again... I LOVE this show.

So much so, that I almost convinced myself to start paying for cable again... almost.

I've devoured every single tasty morsel of the entire second season in matter of afternoons and I'm hungry for more.

No spoilers here, Internet. You'll have to see what all the fuss is about on your own. Good ahead. Give in to the temptation. Trust me, you'll thank me once you do.

I was so into Netflix, too. Then, I watched everything I wanted to...and couldn't think of more. So, I cancelled. Sounds like they keep sucking you back in!!

Well-- I have heard a lot about this show. We don't have cable either. (Or Netflix---I know we're totally out of the loop). I wonder if I could rent it at the local Video Warehouse?
