So I wanted to ask - I have received Eleven and Hopper figures from season 3. Can I do an introduction post with them? Their clothes would be spoilerish I guess but then again you probably already have seen it on the net. Will be interesting to hear your opinion of season 3...
At the time when Torchwood Children of Earth first aired and I had not yet any interest in watching it, I was in a private forum where friends talked among themselves and one apparently had heard rumors about Ianto's death. At the time I did not even know who Ianto was so definitely didn't mind spoilers. Then when I watched some time later I somehow remembered this conversation and figured, oh, this is probably the episode where Ianto dies. So it did not come as a shock to me like others.
But you are right, with shows I care about I try to watch as soon as possible. The last two Orville episodes of season 2 were a two-parter, and after the cliffhanger ending of the first of course you wanted to know how they would continue. I actually watched it Friday morning before going to work, to be on the safe side. Otherwise I could have not visited the internet all day long, which is no option ;)
Huh, never have heard about that Barnum effect. I was late watching the movie, did it in the week before going to the concerts as I figured he might sing some songs from it (and of course he did and they were very popular). If I ever find time in my busy schedule I should educate myself more about this fascinating guy as many have pointed out that what we got in the movie is a kinda whitewashed version and there is more to his story. But yeah, I loved it too. It blew me away. Both the songs and also the execution. Especially the one in the bar where they drink and sing and dance so effortlessly.
