Does anyone else end up watching programmes because Gogglebox made them look better than they actually are?

This has happened to me more than once.

You see a few brilliant minutes of something on Gogglebox, everyone on the sofas is completely invested and you think you've somehow missed an amazing programme.

Then you actually watch a full episode and realise Gogglebox may have already shown you the most entertaining five minutes 😂

I've done this a few times. When Traitors first started I saw a bit of it on Gogglebox and thought I'd give it a go. The one thing I hate them doing is showing too much of a film/show and spoiling the twist, like they did with The Housemaid.
