Okay- I would say that my favorite show of last year was AMC's Mad Men. The first season I watched from Netflix and season 2 from Kendall's DVR. Brilliant!
The 60's, Cigarette ads, women treated like objects, minorities treated like less- a very eye-opening show that let's us see how far we've come. But still so far to go- can you see the pro(Obama)mised land??
Now, I'm gonna bet that Kendall's favorite show was "Lost." If you don't know much about that show- check our podcast archives because we did an entire episode devoted to it! Aww, and it was our first show in HD- memories . . .
Honorable Mention: Roseanne Reruns!
"Roseanne" was one of the all-time best sitcoms ever- and is really just as hilarious and fresh- and VITAL today as ever. How long has it been since you've seen a show about REAL POOR PEOPLE?? Not a caricature, or an exploitative 'reality' show? "Roseanne" deserves to be seen again (and most seasons are very affordable on Amazon- $15-$20 a piece).
I must say watching the Connors struggles makes me feel MUCH BETTER about being poor and imperfect! Try not feeling like a pile of obese shit while watching "Gossip Girl"- now watch "Roseanne" and feel your self confidence rise!!!! A++++
