In my last post that really was just supposed to highlight my new favorite shows… really! The whole Roswell thing just happened… anyway, I completely forgot one of my new favs. Well, actually, I liked it last season (it’s first one) and this season is just as good.
Life, please forgive my forgetfulness.
Damian Lewis is great in this role. And his partner is a perfect character match to go with his. Great writing, Witty, and a subplot is always a great thing. Course, I’ve loved Damian Lewis ever since “Band of Brothers”. If you haven’t seen him in that, you need to. It is SUCH a good HBO movie.
I can’t believe I just wrote that sentence.
Damien Lewis was one of many great actors in Band of Brothers. Donnie Wahlberg, David Schwimmer, Colin Hanks… and I love the fact that they intertwined the REAL men whose characters are portrayed in the movie. Goosebumps and tears everytime. And I’ve watched it many times.
I seem to be having a hard time staying focused these days….

We aren’t huge TV watchers, but whenever we flip on the TV and see that “Life” is on, both The Belgian Wonder and I exclaim, “Oh! Look! That show is on!”
And then we enjoy the show and by the end, when they pull in the complicated arching plotline that we haven’t followed very well, we shrug.
“I don’t get that, do you?”
“Nope. But I don’t think I’m supposed to.”

LOL, Ann. Sometimes I do the same thing! I missed too much of last season to really get the subplot. I know the general idea and a few of his suspitions but that’s as far as I get.
Too funny. =0)

I’ve been watching Life since the beginning and am totally addicted. It’s one of the shows I download to watch each week now that we’re living overseas. I also download Bones, the original CSI as well as CSI New York, Criminal Minds, The Mentalist, NCIS, and the only show hubby enjoys watching with me: Monk. But my ALL TIME favorite show is The Closer!!! Those are the ones I leave on my computer to watch again and again and again. Can’t wait until January and the new season!
