I am now finding myself severely affected mentally, by the plots in TV programmes. Sometimes for opposite reasons.
Last night, or should I say this morning. I watched an episode of a touch of frost, from midnight to 2am. I couldn't sleep after that.
The main plot was kidnapping & murder and some petty unpleasant characters. I was watching and waiting for further twists and turns in the plot. That never came. The bad guys were predictable and awful, the police were third rate and inept. And I was very upset and disturbed .
Last month I was equally upset when watching the final episode in series one of the American /Canadian drama, 'Mary kills people '. There the problem was that the final twist in the episode took me totally by surprise.
So a predictable plot upsets me and an unpredictable twist also upsets me.
I'm in a mental mess and can't sleep.
