Whereas this really doesn't make sense to me. If I come into a show cold in the middle of the series, I spend most of the episode thinking, "What's going on? Who are these people? Why should I care about them?" The first episode is meant to introduce the viewer to the characters, the setting, and the premise, so that everything else that happens after that will make sense and you don't have to waste time being confused when you could be enjoying the story.

I mean, YMMV certainly, and you should enjoy things how you want to enjoy them, but I don't get being *confused* by wanting to understand what's going on.

Well see, I don't see it as "wasting time being confused". Being confused IS the best part for me. I love the confusion. I love the gaps. It gives everything such a grand mysterious vibe.

Because you can try to guess and try to fill in the holes in your understanding yourself with basically anything your mind comes up with and it feels so big, like there's a million possible explanations for and answers to the question of, as you say "what's going on? who are these people? why should I care about them?" and you don't know what that explanation is for sure, but there are so many possibilities and it's like the writers unintentionally wrote a mystery for you to solve (by watching more!) and that's just so exciting.

The whole impression is very surreal and cool and kind of hilarious sometimes and it's fascinating how very different it is when you rewatch the episode later when you do know everything that's going on. It's like getting two episodes in one.

But yeah, different strokes ;) That's just how I view it. Could be because I'm used to watching TV on TV since I was little, not on DVD, and I had to settle for whatever I happened to stumble across in the time slot I happened to be channel surfing in.
