C'mon!

*Arrested Development - In my failed attempt to binge watch all the episodes before the new season came onto Netflix, I made it through all but the last few by Sunday, and finished the rest yesterday. So close! A lot of good friends recommended this show, but I couldn't get into it and didn't see what the appeal was. That is, until a recent explanation of the recurring jokes that helped me finally committed to it. Of all the many in the show, I think my favorites are the chicken dance and the ice cream sandwich. I'm withholding judgment on the new episodes until I have a chance to binge watch them as well! Huzzah!
*Archer - Had I not been already decided to go for gold with Arrested Development, I would have spent the whole month watching this. I've made a huge mistake.
*Simpsons (Season 24) - Bonus episode for the end of the season, one pretty funny, the other not so much. Forget-me-now.
*The Retirement Gamble (Frontline)  What an eye-opener about how Wall Street's profiting at the expense of our retirement using fees. They tried to show some tricks to simplify the system, but it seems more like they're not tricks, they're illusions.
*Mad Men Season 6 - It's been a bit uneven this season. Sometimes I am bored (Man With a Plan, The Better Half), and the characters feel tired (Her?), and sometimes it kicks into high gear (For Immediate Release, The Crash), and I love it again.
*Game of Thrones - With wedding bells ringing, family is the most important thing. Only 2 left!
*Behind the Candelabra - An HBO special to fill a void left without one week of Game of Thrones, it was interesting to learn about Liberace. It used to be "Adopt me," but now it can be, "Marry me!" Well, at least, it can be in some states.
*Colbert Report - Trevor Potter's back to talk about the 501(c)(4) IRS fiasco! I was so excited, but it was so short and it wasn't all I had hoped for. I know, it's light treason. I read The Great Gatsby to prepare for the cOlbert Book Club, which was well worth it just so I could be sure I got all the jokes.
