I stopped watching as I couldn't bear the thought of a "stand-by-your-man" story, but my mom convinced me to give it a try a couple of years ago. I binged the first few seasons and have stayed with it. One of the best.ChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843864158239536750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-2337496550557479782014-12-31T00:20:44.903-05:002014-12-31T00:20:44.903-05:00I'm a season behind on The Good Wife, but I wa...I'm a season behind on The Good Wife, but I was hooked somewhere in the middle of the first season. Great writing and a good mix of the case-of-the-week and the overall story. Big moral drama with twists and surprises but also believable consequences. Seems like something that would fit here, right?<br /><br />I really need to watch True Detective. As someone who chose to skip TV altogether for about 10 years, I feel like now there's so much good stuff to catch up on I will never get current. Thank God for Netflix.<br /><br />Just read "Ponies" and wow. My daughter (16 year old aspiring writer) will need to read that. Holy crap.

I got hooked on both The Good Wife and Orange Is The New Black on planes (I often do 11-hour flights, so there's time for a binge-watch!). Now I go out of my way when flying to try shows I'd written off without seeing them. And I discovered Deadwood by flicking to it in an ad break while someone else was out of the room. Oh, boring, Western, I thought. There were two teenage kids and I was expecting that someone was going to hug them or something, and then they got shot. Wow! I was hooked.Gavriellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-76212299818328125522014-12-30T14:36:03.500-05:002014-12-30T14:36:03.500-05:00Blackfish being too sad to watch is exactly why pe...Blackfish being too sad to watch is exactly why people should watch it. The whole situation is really gross. Only if the demands goes away, will the supply stop. <br />But yes, don't force children to watch it. <br /><br />Great post, Josie!

I'm glad to hear it didn't lose it's shine. And I couldn't agree more about <i>The Flash</i>. Grant Gustin's enthusiasm and charm make that show. And Tom Cavanaugh and Jesse Martin are the icing on the cake. I'm looking forward to more of its "cotton candy" goodness in 2015!Jess Lyndehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165015932507376656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-71019501137957236172014-12-30T09:01:22.316-05:002014-12-30T09:01:22.316-05:00I enjoyed your "Best of", Josie, and I a...I enjoyed your "Best of", Josie, and I actually spent a lot of this year binge-watching and doing catch-up, too. Right now, I'm watching the second season of <i>The Good Wife</i> and I really love it. The first season starts out feeling like it's going to be a case-of-the-week legal drama, but episode by episode, the arc elements start creeping in. I had tried the show long ago and had only gotten two episodes in. I wish I'd hung in there.Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.com
