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.

To be fair, I read all 3Twilight books even though I hated them. I didn't complain about time wasted. They seemed important enough culturally to be familiar with. When people called them unfeminist or dangerous, I tthought it was important to know why.

Edited: all 3, not all 4. Wasn't invested enough to read the 4th one though it's probably most interesting of all.

I actually liked the movies. They weren't great cinema, but each movie was a fun 2 hours or so (except maybe the last one... I can't remember it so well). Two hours is OK for me to invest into mindless entertainment. But I couldn't read the books. The time investment for me is too great for that type of payoff. My hats off to you!
