Losing Interest Quick 🥺
My mom‘s been gone almost 4 years, but when she was alive, she watched “The Mentalist,” and I would catch an episode here and there, that held my interest. I needed a filler show, so I started watching it about a month ago, and I want to like it, but it’s been tough for me to keep watching.
I don’t know why I’m having such a hard time watching, because I love shows like this. It’s similar to “Castle,” and “Will Trent,” (cop show, with the quirky character that gets shit done). Maybe it’s because it makes me think of my mom, and it’s making me even more sad? I don’t know?
I’m disabled, so basically all I do, is watch TV/movies, and when I’m interested in something, I will binge all of it so quickly, but I’m only on s2e19, and trying to force myself to continue.
Unlike most people, I actually like spoilers, and get bad anxiety, when I don’t know what’s going to happen (I blame my Autism/ADHD/OCD, lol). So, I already know who Red John is, and if my pattern recognition doesn’t allow me to clock the killer, I will Google it, instead of waiting till the end of the episode, lol.
I’ll probably keep watching, just in honor of my mom, but I hope that it gets more interesting to me, so it doesn’t seem like such a chore.
Sorry. I don’t mean to shit on the show you all love.
