I think a big part of it is that I don't expect it to stay fresh and new forever. It's like the rush at the beginning of a new love affair: it's great, but it doesn't last, and if you expect it to, you're doomed to disappointment. If you want the relationship to succeed, you have to transition from infatuation to affection, which may not be as exciting, but can be even deeper and stronger.
Of course, with TV shows, they're not going to get their feelings hurt if you dump them for a newer, shinier model. *g*
