Post Re: Summer brings comfort in the form of reruns
Summer brings comfort in the form of rerunsThere seems to be little but death and hibernation for favorite shows in May and June. Such sad times, yes? Not at all. The warm season is the highlight for the rerun lover, who now has a chance to bask in the beauty of the familiar Hibernation .Contrast that with May and June, when there is nothing but death and hibernation for favorite TV shows. “House” won’t be making any calls for a few months. “Glee” has lost its voice temporarily.It’s easy to get sucked into an old favorite while you’re parked on a comfy couch, while air conditioning keeps you cool. Television has become so interactive these days (think social media and reality-show voting) that there’s a far greater relaxation factor inherent in just being able to sit back and let the laughs — or the suspense — roll over you like a gentle brain massage. You know this territory, you know where it leads and you’re happy to just take the ride. But late one night I surfed past A&E and thought it might be worth giving the show another shot (though the appearance of Chris Noth may have had something to do with it). The show clicked, and fifteen years later I was still hooked through to the series’ very end.
