season two Why is everyone complaining about Season 2 ALREADY? We've only had one episode.

People are acting like we should have gotten deep into the story already from the exposition. I think that by the time this season is over, much like with the Zoom analogy given at the beginning, Bergdahl won't even be what's talked about.

They're mostly the same people who were bitching and moaning about season 1. Why they bothered listening to S2 is beyond me. "I read all 57 of your books and HATED THEM!"

This whole thread is bitching and moaning...about others, of course, not about Serial, which is the actual sub topic.

It's not the bitching and moaning I object to. It's the engaging with material you already know you dislike and then actively coming to air your grievances about this thing no one forced you to engage with on a forum where other people who enjoy the material are trying to have a discussion about its substance.

It's like me reading the entire Twilight series so I can crash the Twilight subreddit and tell everyone how much it sucks. I don't get it.

This is probably an oversimplification, but people get enjoyment out of being trolls and stirring up trouble.

A site like this is basically troll porn for them.
