A kneejerk judgment countered

So my youngest was tagged in a post about the series Revenge. Another friend of the person who posted (sorry, a "poster" will always seem like a different thing entirely to me) lamented that she started watching it on Hulu but that her husband (I presume) kept interrupting with questions about it, so she was just going to wait and watch it by herself.

I find that I can't help reaching conclusions about what this means for their marriage. I mean, it isn't as if he is completely uninterested, but she'd rather just keep this experience for herself than be bothered to explain it to him. I guess, though, that she's probably a mom with a limited amount of time for her own entertainment, and she's trying to safeguard her enjoyment of it. And I know my negative reaction is probably rooted in the challenges my own wife and I deal with in the entertainment realm.
