And keep in mind that I watched a few episodes to pick the ripest fish in the barrel. I literally could only watch one a day, because my eyes were watering by the time it was done, and I had a migraine. Like, I was already going nearsighted before I watched this show; I don't want to know what this is going to do to my vision overall.
