television vs. cigarettes both addicitions?

Television shows are turning into my other vice: cigarettes. I can’t get enough of reality shows, sitcoms, etc. I’m watching an ER rerun on TNT right now from season 6. I have no idea what’s going on, what the character arcs are, but I really wish I had gotten into the show you know… 14 years ago. Now I have to go rent the first seasons and watch them all. This addiction can’t be healthy, it’s unatural. I’ve spent the last hour Wikipedia-ing character information, story arcs, spoilers, etc. and all I’ve seen are two episodes from season 6 that make no sense to me. I’m a sad, sad individual.
