Two things have been done towards that goal: 1) I finally took The Sopranos Season 1 off of my shelf last weekend and took it back to Mom and Dad, from whom I'd borrowed it. One less intense show to watch for now. 2) I put a library hold on Season 1 of Leverage. There. That should help. (I'd seen one full episode plus glimpses of Leverage Season 1, but then my building's cable selection got halved and I no longer got TNT.)
And after that, there'll be Season 2, the first one shot in Portland and one I've seen nothing of yet, beyond a couple of encounters with the crew here. But lighter entertainment will reach me! Just later! (I'm 84th in line for the DVD set. I can wait.)
