I haven't seen Treme cause I don't have HBO & really I probably wouldn't watch it anyway. But are people here really forcing themselves to watch something they don't like just because it takes place in New Orleans?

I do think some people watch to see the city on the tube. I watch to see if an old friend of mine will get more lines.

I also think there are plenty of people watching because Simon started slow with The Wire and the expect the slow start of Treme to pick up like it did on The Wire.

The show is slow but I don't hate it. There are other shows I watch far less deserving of my time.

I'm forcing myself to watch because everyone says that The Wire started out crappy too, but became one of the most amazing shows on tv. I'm holding hope that Treme will become that show.

as for the New Orleans aspect- it just highlights attitudes of NO natives that I highly dislike. Location has little to do with why I force myself to watch the show each week.
