Now, in this regard I am a weirdo!
I tell my kids constantly: When I was a lad, you had to wait an entire week for the next part of a show. The waiting felt almost unendurable at times but it was worthwhile (usually... sometimes it was an utter bloody anticlimax).
I do think we have lost something loosely related to patience in the modern age, there's something about instant gratification that doesn't sit too well with me.
Although this from a guy who watched the entire first series of Dexter this week... I'm a hypocrite and a fraud!!! 🤣
