I love that you guys all hate Girls. I only watched it this past Christmas when it came out on DVD and enjoyed it. It reminded me enough of crap that has happened to me or people I know that I kind of fell in love with it. I also liked that while I didn’t love all the characters, I understood them and actually didn’t hate any of them.
I might have to check out The Following based on the crazy you guys talked about. I didn’t watch it on purpose because these shows with seriously effed up people on them are giving me nightmares these days. Too much killing. I need fake comic book killing thanks.
Castle and Suits – they are in no way the same show but I love the relationships on both shows. The cases could be interchangeable in any given episode but the relationships are great in both. The cast dynamic in both are the best part of both shows.
Hart of Dixie – OMG! Am I the only one that wanted everyone to tell everyone else to just BUTT OUT!?! If any of my family or friends messed with my love life like that there would be a beat down. Although I too loved that Wade seemed to be the most grown up of everyone.
Last Resort was such a disappointment! It started out so well and then the last three episodes felt like they crammed 22 episodes of story into 3 hours.
I am enjoying Continuum quite a bit. I love time travel! Also, Project Runway this team thing? I LOVE IT! It really changes the workroom and I am very curious to see how the one losing team changes their dynamic this next week. Because it’s their non team work that is killing them.
