Like, why do you care so much if she's sleeping with a new guy after just divorcing or her coming out or that rich family buying a new mansion? How does that affect your life?

That took a different but interesting turn than I expected after the first paragraph. Thanks for the read. And I agree, that's sad.

It's how the Disney channel operates. They hook kids young with teen oriented sitcoms and then the viewers get to "grow up" with their favorite actors over the course of years.

So you mean they want everyone to get hooked on cocaine? Is Disney secretly a drug lord?

You use the word "secret" quite generously but otherwise: yes. They deal in endorphines,playing the long game.
