We never got around to watching Damages this year when it was actually on the air, but we dutifully recorded it to catch up with some time.
There, an entire season sat, taunting us.
I remembered that last year, with Season 1, we knew, somehow, that we were going to like the show, but just couldn’t get ourselves to hit “play” on the first episode.
We’re not big on the procedural in our house. Only the star power of the cast – Glenn Close, Rose Byrne, Ted Danson – and the fact that it was on FX made us take a second look.
About five minutes into the first episode, we were completely hooked.
Oddly enough, the same thing happened this season.
It ended weeks ago – April 1 – and we hadn’t started watching it until over the Memorial Day weekend. We’d exhausted most of the other shows and movies on the DVR that we watch together.
So we finally caved in and started watching Season 2 of Damages.
About 5 minutes into it, we were completely sucked in.
