I would have thought this would be a tv show romance writers would like.

I now have it set on my TIVO. You're right. The married couple doesn't dance around hard issues. The husband doesn't bend to his wife at every turn and she doesn't do it for him either. Their reactions look so real that its easy to forget they're acting. <BR/><BR/>I'm not a TV fan. It takes a lot to get me to stop and watch a show. This one has what it takes. Sadly, it seems that when I do find a show I like, it doesn't stay on air long. I guess my tastes aren't the same as the majority.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-55783307514710299882007-11-05T07:35:00.000-05:002007-11-05T07:35:00.000-05:00I love that messed up kid's body -- is that wrong?...I love that messed up kid's body -- is that wrong?Molly O'Keefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15171236688541657736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-41021975364241212462007-11-04T22:29:00.000-05:002007-11-04T22:29:00.000-05:00Really? Ghost Whisperer? Gag!!!I *heart* FNL. And...Really? Ghost Whisperer? Gag!!!<BR/><BR/>I *heart* FNL. And I am in total agreement with you on the Landry love. <BR/><BR/>To Christine: you are going to be very sad when you finally decide to watch the DVDs and realize what a perfect show you are missing. And a show that might not be on the air anymore if people don't watch it.<BR/><BR/>The show has very little to do with football, but a lot to do with very real characters behaving and speaking in a very real way. Coach & Mrs.Coach are *so* pitch perfect. I just cannot say enough how brilliant the actors are!<BR/><BR/>Riggins probably had the best couple of episodes since this show has been on. His heart-felt call to Lyla from Mexico, and then his talk with Street on the 'booze cruise' boat. I love that messed up kid.K J Gillenwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12023089365553324315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-53467478923742239782007-11-04T14:05:00.000-05:002007-11-04T14:05:00.000-05:00Great show -- great show.

How is it that the one plot line at the beginning of the season we were all a little worried about is now easily the most compelling story on TV? Oh Landry!Molly O'Keefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15171236688541657736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-90002561381445055072007-11-04T13:29:00.000-05:002007-11-04T13:29:00.000-05:00You should watch it, Christine.

You won't be disappointed. <BR/><BR/>I dislike football, but I love this show.<BR/><BR/>Very high drama, but consistently underplayed so it doesn't come off too melodramatic. Well, maybe some of the stuff with Jason Street comes off a bit melodramatic, but not really. In lesser hands, his story line could be totally soap opera and instead it's real and raw.<BR/><BR/>LOVED the moments Sinead mentioned in this blog. Also loved the little scene where Lyla kisses both Street and Riggins and then says, "I think I need to go pray." Tiny scene but it said everything about those three and the conflict her character feels. Still not a big fan of her character, but in those kisses you could see how much she's hurting. She could have lead the two of them to bed for a threesome and I wouldn't have believed the scene less.<BR/><BR/>And Ghost Whisperer is beating it in the ratings??? What the @@@k is wrong with people??? I think they just moved Men in Trees against FNL too. I actually like MIT (in spite of the ever annoying Anne Heche), but it's not the same caliber of show as FNL. But sadly, it might suck more of the female viewers away from FNL.Maureen McGowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00494408580378817045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-1402096823884268172007-11-04T08:00:00.000-05:002007-11-04T08:00:00.000-05:00I hate to say I haven't watched this yet.

It will probably be a DVD viewing for me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12777733587200293442noreply@blogger.com
