Wrapping one’s self in a soap opera is not play, it is childishly retarded.
I’m sure Shakespeare had study groups poring over his plays back in the day, so you’re a few centuries late if you want to head off a trend of discussing fiction.

Entertainment is a part of the human need set -- going back to stone-age man -- whether you find favor with it or not.
If you disagree that this series is entertaining, no worries, that is your opinion. Just wish you wouldn't find the need to try to control ours.
If you don't like that there are entertainment discussions on Free Republic, then you will need to be quite busy. There are threads about football, and baseball, and participatory sports, and music of every nature, and even other television shows and movies. Don't take it personally, we aren't trying to annoy you.
