What were your favorites?
Ooh, now I get to see your top ten TV too 😀 I gave The Good Wife a chance but it wasn’t for me. I haven’t seen Terriers, but now I feel like I should give it a try. I also watched Better Off Ted this year and loved it. Too bad I had to wait until it was canceled before I could discover it.
The Good Wife is definitely a particular kind of taste.
I’m not sure if you’d like Terriers or not. I’ll be interested to hear what you think.
Glad to hear you enjoyed Better Off Ted. I loved that show too. So funny!
