*Good Wife - The thrill of the initial episodes wore off a bit, but I am still really enjoying the new story line.
*Simpsons - What does it say that I can't really recall the last few episodes, and the announcement about a new season just made me sad? I'm mostly watching it looking forward to ...
*Bob's Burgers - I'm a sucker for toilet humor, so the Thanksgiving episode involving this was really funny. I went back and watched a few of the early episodes I somehow missed.
*Tudors (Season 3) -Jeez, how many wives does this king have anyway? Oh, right six. I think I might not make it through the last two. I wish they could have skipped some time and included more of the lady queens in the series, but I guess they weren't considered Tudors? I don't know much British royal history (obviously).
*Adventure Time - I saw one of these somewhere before, but came back to it. They're such wacky, nice bite-sized episodes.
*Miss Representation - A documentary about portrayal of women in the media and the importance of media literacy. A must-see if you have any young people in your life.
*Parks & Recreation - I gave this another go (I do enjoy a fluoride debate), but the characters and dynamics have just worn too thin.
*Colbert Report - Some really good bits on wealth inequality, and who wouldn't want Stephen over for Thanksgiving dinner?
*Frontline - A chilling documentary about domestic violence and the police.
*My Life as a Turkey - A pitch-perfect meditative reflection piece for the holiday on nature and wildlife with some truly insightful moments.
*Project Runway All Stars - Ehh...Not super exciting so far, but nice to see some familiar faces I guess.
*Boardwalk Empire - I keep putting off watching this; it just hasn't been as satisfying as I had hoped.
*Getting On - I think this one's going to be a really great one. I love when people find humor in sad circumstances.
*Treme - I caught up on this just in time for the new season. Last season was just so sad, so it was nice to see a few bright spots in this last season.
*Sarah Silverman: We are Miracles - So funny!
Where'd You Go, Bernadette? follows a young girl trying to figure out where her mom disappeared to by piecing together emails and other information. It's a fun, quick read with some nice laugh-out-loud moments about moms. I only wish I'd read it while I was in the Pacific Northwest, where most of it is set. How Should a Person Be? is unusual; I'm only about half way through, but I'm really enjoying especially the philosophical parts. I wish I knew about her before I went to Toronto this summer!
