Like Dexter and stuff?
If the writing's any good, and the psycho is the main character, I probably will identify with him, yes. :)

Cool

Theyre usually short lived like lecter, you just can't sympathise with a real monster
Or dexter who was more like batman with clingfilm

You've got the boxset?? must borrow ;)

Yeah! I know! If you had asked me up until the age of 10 what I wanted to be when I grew up I most likely would have said "a boy". Up until I was a teenager I was convinced that boys were just better than girls and refused to wear girls' clothes. It must happen a lot in childhood and you grow out of it.

And its treated like some sport of bible

I know so many aspies whp are upset aspergers is being dropped, its like their losing an identity it took them so
Long to find

That's weird, isn't it, because presumably we're supposed to identify with the Watson-equivalent audience surrogate, but I never do.

I wonder if it's because they do and say things you're not allowed to say yourself, as well. Like House, for instance (who I think the writers admitted was based on Sherlock Holmes).

I didn't identify with Dexter because I've never really felt like doling out vigilante justice, but the Sherlock character is just acerbic really. It allows me to fantasise about not being polite
:P

Dont do boxsets. I like TV to be a mystery I have no control over

If only we were smart enough to get away with being complete dicks to people!

They're dropping Aspergus? I didn't realise that. That's one of the only ones in there that you can see around you in real life. And then they're replacing it with all this rubbish like 'if you're still depressed six months after losing a loved one you have a mental disorder' Angry Seriously, America? Seriously?!

30% which doesn't seem too bad.

Oppppsitional defiance disorder is kinda cool it sorta means complsively argumentative or being clinically stroppy

Its meant to get less teens diagnosed as psychotic and stuck on lithium

Just been watching Babestation and wondering why it's allowed to exist? I'm all for jiggling boobies but is it not crazy that (softcore) porn is broadcast for free on TV and is accessible to anyone who is awake after 10pm?

Where will we be in 10 years time? It starts off with innocent boobies now but the fact that these channels have creeped on our TVs over the past few years without too much commotion troubles me.

Not to go all Mary Whitehouse on you all but I think these channels should really be subscription only. It really baffles me that it's not.

It's also weird that ITV and channel 5 (I think) go all gambling crazy after about midnight. That never used to happen.
Weird and boring.

Who spends £2.50p/m to gamble and wank?? Weirdos.

Seems cheap at the price?? ;)
