Probably but once you start avidly watching something and connect with people on it for whatever reasons,that is when it becomes more an event and part of your lives at that time.
Then when you see any possibly unfair comments as to people you have come to like and also in some cases, the need to take the further time to vote and spend money on them too.
That is when for the time it is on, it becomes more serious as to how you react to things happening on it and concerning it.
