I can't stop! I can't stop watching it!

A writer's dream Isn't this what writers dream of? Viewers/readers who are so invested in the characters they can't stop. Marcy's heartbreaking quest to recover her broken memories of David, McClaren's journey to fatherhood brutally cut short, Phillip's lonely life as a recovering addict, Carly's adjustment from male special ops soldier to young mother and partner, Trevor's ongoing joy and sometimes sorrow at being an old man living life as a teenage boy.
