I just came up with these because I'm not well and bored out of my brain, but feel free to add to it, and I may do so as well later 
1. You copy the main characters facial expressions, accents and speaking manner subconsciously, and sometimes ‘subconsciously’.
2. You find that, instead of listening to your teacher, your mind wanders to what’s going to happen in tonight’s episode.
3. You ‘horde’ Cold Case episodes on Video/DVD/Hard drive
4. You collect Cold Case articles and pictures.
5. Every time you write the words ‘Cold’ or ‘Case’, you almost automatically write ‘Case’ or ‘Cold’.
6. If you see the words ‘Cold’ or ‘Case’, you think they look strange without the other written beside it.
7. If someone makes a noise during an episode, you have to physically bite your tongue in order not to scream at him or her.
8. If you hear a song that’s been on Cold Case, you announce to who ever is listening that it has done so.
9. Every movie you see that contains on of the stars, you go slightly mental and try to buy it (hard when it’s not for sale.)
10. You friends and family know not to badmouth it or they will succumb to physical violence.
11. If the TV guide contains no CC information, you sulk for about a week.
12. If the TV guide does contain CC information, you get all excited and read the article repetitively until you know it off by heart.
13. You force your friends to watch it by bribing them, blackmailing them or handcuffing them to another of your friends who does watch it.
14. You work CC quotes into your daily life.
15. You can almost re-tell every line in an episode.
16. You ask every teacher at school if they watch Cold Case (surprising results, many of them do.)
17. You name your pets/kids after CC related things. For example, I have:
Lilly & Rush (cockatiels) and Lara & Zundro (chooks; named after KM’s parts in Minority Report and The Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All)
17. If you tell your young cousins, say, aged 8, 5 and 2, all about Cold Case.
18. If your life aspirations are to be a homicide detective and own two cats with 3 legs and one eye.
19. You shout out unpleasant language at the network because it has skipped an episode of Cold Case.
20. That same network ends up on your and your friends’ ‘Things we all hate’ list.
21. You start clapping and cheering every time you see the actors of Cold Case on TV, for whatever reason.
22. You journal entries contain about 3% personal matter, and 97% Cold Case related topics.
23. If someone mentions a phrase that has been used as a Cold Case episode title, you start laughing, much to his or her confusion. For example, a friend of mine was trying to work out what was so funny about the sentence “You need to be Committed”
24. Every time you play hangman, the first thing whoever’s guessing says is ‘Is this another Cold Case title?’
25. You have pictures of Olivia & Tripod drawn all over you school work.
26. If there’s an interesting scene on the show, it becomes your Hot Topic for the next month.
27. You can only watch and laugh as you friend, another Cold Case obsess-ee, runs along the road copying Kathryn Morris’ cheerleader dance from the Ellen Show to passing cars.
28. It is a complete and utter miracle when you discover you’ve gone 6 whole hours with only one mention of Cold Case.
29. Your friends and family know where to come if they need info on an episode, and, in the off chance you’re unsure, you know all the perfect places to go and find it out.
30. You keep your eye out for all things Cold Case. Clothes, phones, magazines, cars, etc.
31. You get all excited because the brand of lock they use in the locker rooms in Philly PD are the exact same brand as the ones in your locker room at school/work.
32. You re-name your childhood soft toys from ‘Garfield’ to ‘Olivia’ and ‘Buff’ to ‘Tripod’. You also sticky tape ‘Buff/Tripods’ leg to its stomach and bandaid over ‘Garfield/Olivia’s’ eye.
33. You keep a quote book, made up mostly of Cold Case quotes.
34. You aren't well, so the first thing you think of doing is making a 'You Know You're Obbsessed with Cold Case When...' list
1. You copy the main characters facial expressions, accents and speaking manner subconsciously, and sometimes ‘subconsciously’.
