THE FUSE

Recently, one of my colleagues asked me if I'd ever watched the popular television show, "Love on the Spectrum." The acclaimed series documents young adults with autism as they navigate dating and relationships. I told her I wasn't interested and, honestly, was hesitant to watch the show. I imagine it's the same as an FBI agent watching "The Night Agent" or a doctor watching "The Pitt." You immerse yourself in something all day long, so it's not a show you watch for leisure purposes. As an expert in a space, you can also expect to nitpick, overanalyze, and likely find fault with the details—it's only natural! After a bit more of my colleague gently nudging me, I finally caved and spent two weeks binge-watching all four seasons. As expected, I have many opinions.
