Spoiler Alert!

I'm done. Over with spoilers. No more for me. I want to stay surprised with each episode/movie I look forward to watching. Secrets are now surprises!
Particularly, this is in regards to Doctor Who. I watched Series 1-4.5 not knowing what was coming next. I always turned off the episode before the “next time” clip popped up. But as soon as I finished, I enjoyed the bombardment of Series 5 details that crept up on me ever so easily. But a the same time, there was a part of me that misses the surprise that came with the older episodes. Especially if I didn't know it was a two-parter.
Same goes for Chuck, where I breezed through the series unknowing of details. But the only big spoilers I see for that are usually plot descriptions of upcoming episodes. There aren't too many spoilers for Stargate Universe, what with being kicked off the air and all, but knowing certain characters were returning was nice. But I'll be fine. Not much has turned up about Warehouse 13 yet, so I'll be able to stay blissfully ignorant easily.
This all started when my friend saw the DW premier in NYC this week, saying she was confused as to why the characters were acting the way they were, and I knew what the bad guys were doing to them, yet she didn't, and I realized I wouldn't have such an experience and, thus, enjoy it less. If I stay away from spoilers everywhere, wherever I used to get them, maybe I can keep some of that surprise for later episodes.
