    15 Stages Of Getting Back Into TV Shows You Stopped Watching

    I'm looking at you CSI, Law and Order, Supernatural and friends.

    1. It first starts when you stumble across the show you haven't watched in ages.

    2. Your first thought is “This show is still running!?”

    3. The theme song starts and you feel accomplished when you know all the words.

    4. All of a sudden, it all starts coming back to you.

    5. You realise how hot certain characters have become.

    6. But you still find yourself questioning whether the show ever changed.

    7. You realise they're trying so hard to get with the times.

    8. Eventually, you start finding the familiarity of the show quite comforting.

    9. You start questioning why you ever stopped watching it in the first place.

    10. You don't know how to feel about the characters not aging.

    11. You realise not all your favourite characters have made it through the years.

    12. The amount of episodes you have to catch up on is starting to daunt you.

    13. You spend way too much time trying to re-acquaint yourself with the show.

    14. You are so grateful for fandoms that stuck it out all these years and are providing you with prime information and sexy gifs.

    15. Ultimately though, your new favorite shows come back with a new season, and it’s time to say goodbye.
