As the new season draws near, I have been pondering this one question - Do I really want to know what happens this season before it happens?

The internet is full of spoilers. Heck, I just started a thread today in the Season 2 forum just for them. New characters, new plot lines, more information about what the deal with Hawkins is will all come creeping onto the internet. Basic plot summaries for all of the episodes will probably appear in the next few weeks. We might know the answers to who is on the train and if the military forces are really the US Government as soon as a few months from now.

But will knowing the answers to these questions reduce or enhance our viewing enjoyment?

Personally, on a show like Jericho, the acting and writing make it like a good movie. I can watch the episodes multiple times and glean new understanding and enjoyment from them each time. Honestly knowing a new character is coming, or even that it's Jonah and his forces on the train won't spoil things too much for me. Heck, last season I had a pretty good idea Johnston was going to die in the finale.

But I think I might try to avoid the major spoilers this season. With only seven episodes and a TON of story packed into each, I want to be able to savor each episode to its fullest. This might mean I might post a few "Blind Links" here at JRP, but overall, I think this season, I want to be surprised.
