what, you don't want the hearing impaired watching your show?

sheesh.

Ethan's been watching West Wing for awhile. He recently started the sixth season.

I'd been starting to get interested; it's clearly good TV. But now, not so much. Did you know that the sixth season dvds of west wing are not subtitled? Clearly they don't want the likes of *me* watching their TV show.

I've stopped paying attention because I'm annoying *myself* with all the "what did they just say?" "Wait, what was that?"

I'm not even hard-of-hearing, by anybody's measure. But fuck if I can keep track of what the hell is going on in this TV show when I miss every sixth word.

Idiots. What the hell were they thinking? What is their *problem*? They got it right the first FIVE times...

(yeah, and I'm clearly late to the party. These dvds have been out for quite awhile...)

I watch everything with subtitles - even when I'm not watching with the OH. I don't know how hard of hearing is defined these days but it's harder for me to pick up sounds in a generally noisy environment.
