DAE find that after watching an entire series of a show, they start to take on the attributes of the characters?

Am up to season 4 of Dr. Who. Not good for the ADHD tendencies.

I've been walking, talking and acting like a Baltimore drug dealer ever since I finished The Wire. It's driving my family nuts.

I have been catching myself saying words that end with "u" sounds as "iew".

i.e. "tiew" rather than "two".

After 4 seasons of Stargate Atlantis and watching A Dog's Breakfast, I say "sorry" the Canadian way. Luckily I have not picked up other attributes McKay displays. =P

HA! I'm now stuck pronouncing it as "sohry" since I became a Trailer Park Boys fan.

i started watching Dexter last week. I am now killing criminals and trying to solve this fucked up case about a hooker killer. Also my hot sister who I want to fuck is dating this pretty cool dude who brings me steaks.

Tonight is the night, and it's going to happen again and again.

Then I start paying attention the dialog in my head.

You could imagine my speech after I've been watching too many Jimmy Stewart films...

Besides the aforementioned "re-up" from The Wire, I now say "blarg" after spending a rainy weekend watching the first 2 seasons of 30 Rock.

It's one of the reasons I got into Burn Notice. That dude puts James Bond to shame.

Jim from The Office for me. I think judging from his character, I'm learning to be more reserved but outgoing when the time calls for it.
EDIT: Season 3 btw
