Got the first disc of Good Wife on Netflix last week and really enjoyed it! Even my husband got into it. Thanks for the recommendation. Disc 2 should be here Monday.

Have I recommended Homicide: Life on the Street to you yet? It’s sort of like The Wire – in that they’re based on the same book so there’s some overlap – but it’s character-based rather than plot-based, so it’s much easier to watch the episodes individually. And there’s a very subtle ongoing plotline that kind of reminds me of The Invention of Love, but I will say no more. Anyway, I seriously recommend that you watch the first episode, because it does a great job of introducing the characters, and you’ll probably know right away whether you like them and want to spend more time with them.

I’ll watch Gilmore Girls casts in anything too, apart from the mother. I can’t think of the actress’s name for some reason but yeah, she’s not my favorite. I don’t like her delivery. I find her maddening.

I hope you like it! It’s different to the shows I normally watch too, I’m not a fan of legal dramas usually. But the writing and cast are all just so good.

Downton Abbey! Downton Abbey is awesome! I am excited for the second season.

Hahaha, girl, you have no idea how stupid some of my shows are. I watch Gossip Girl all the time, and sometimes on Fridays if I’m not doing anything else I make cheese fries and watch episode after episode of Say Yes to the Dress. :p But I like smart TV too.

Oh, I forgot about reruns. Reruns! Goody! And I like Denis O’Hare also, I think the show does a really good job with all of their judges.

Oh Mumsy. Boo. So much TV is so good. You can sit still for books! Why not for TV?

Gilmore Girls is fun but The Good Wife is more better. In fact it is better than any of the shows you mention, except for Buffy and Angel which you’ve already seen. #evangelist

And Christine Baranski kicks ass.
