My dream has come true...my t.v. is now hooked up with a wireless card to stream anything online, complete with a remote keyboard mouse. I may never leave the couch again.
*Good Wife - Thanks to a generous gift, I gorged myself on the first season recently while finishing out the latest season. I may have overdosed a bit in the process, but after a break I'm sure I'll be back for more.
*Game of Thrones - No need to wait for the summer Renaissance season to nerd out in fantasy land. This one requires some close attention to keep track of all the back stories about each family, but with this genre, it's better enjoying it on the big screen than reading a hundred pages of back story.
*Frontline - Did you know there's little to no science behind CSI, including the idea that fingerprints are unique? Another example of excellent, eye-opening reporting that you really can't find elsewhere these days. I'm in the midst now of their 4-part series on Wall Street greed. Familiar territory, but very well made.
*Mildred Pierce - Beautifully shot and acted, this period piece is about a woman and her complex, strained relationship with her daughter. The mini-series gets under your skin about a time somewhat parallel to our own.
*30 Rock - While I was not crazy about the repeat attempt at "Queen of Jordan," the second attempt at a live show worked well.
*Parks & Recreation - This season seems to be dragging a bit, but still funny.
*Bob's Burger - The food truck episode was hysterical. Gene's been golden! My favorite recent line of his -- Louise: We could buy an island! Gene: And a smaller island...For farting.
*Girls - I loved Tiny Furniture, and this show does not disappoint. So good she writes her own review, really: "I could be the voice of my generation. Or a voice. Of a generation."
*Colbert Report - With the Republican primary over, there's a little less material to work with. Colbert can still find a way to kill it, though - prime example was this recent spot about Kermit the Frog's German troubles. His spots on gun control and health care have both been great lately, too.
