Ich glotz TV.

[sister_luck]

You know you're watching too much tv when you start to see connections everywhere.

When you go shopping to the local supermarket (the one with the incredible bargains) you notice the folks who seem to have stepped off the set of Shameless.

You're convinced that the guys in the Italian cafe at the corner are Tony Soprano's European cousins.

You're in Hungary and you notice the oversized pencils that the street-vendors are selling to the tourists and you only think that they would make great stakes.

When you hear about the poor guy who wandered around Washington with a suspicious-looking briefcase and was tackled and arrested by some special forces police guys, you assume it was Jack Bauer.

Then this car shows up in your street and you wonder whether Sam Tyler has been transported from 1970s Manchester to present-day Germany - along with a period vehicle.

I cannot believe I am missing that Sam Tyler thing on TV. I saw the ads for it over Christmas and was entirely gutted that I wasn't going to be able to watch it.

I apply this same theory to bands and music. It's very odd.

I'm sure you'll get to see Life on Mars at some point and then you won't have to wait a week for the episodes. I love modern technology.

How does it work with bands and music? Do you see snippets from songs or people who remind you of the musicians?
