Yes, this. I am sick of having to defend my decision not to read the Twilight books, my decision to stop watching True Blood and my decision to give the rebooted Star Trek a pass.
I'm tired of the producers of entertainment assuming that I need to have everything painstakingly pointed out to me. Dammit, if you don't use some subtlety, there's no need for me to watch it again to catch the stuff I missed the first time. You're screwing yourselves out of repeat business, dumbasses. Plus you're insulting my intelligence and that pisses me off. So the next wannabe blockbuster or "must-see" TV show you put out? I'm probably going to bypass it on general principle.
