This week's question is:
What two television shows that have gone off the air do you miss?
Because I have an unnatural love for television, this question is blissfully easy. The first one is probably not a surprise--Gilmore Girls. I miss the adventures of Lorelai, Rory and the crazy Stars Hollow crew more than I can say. (Even the uneven 6th and 7th seasons.) There's just nothing on TV that is that smart, heartfelt and creative. Not to mention funny. My favorite episodes are "A Deep Fried Korean Thanksgiving" from Season 3, Episode 9 and "Jews and Chinese Food" from Season 5, Episode 15 (I think?). It's my life goal to get other people addicted to them, because I have all the seasons on DVD and love to share.
Designing Women is easily my second favorite. Not those crappy episodes towards the end, but those four solid seasons with the four original women. I always wanted to be Julia, with her rapid-fire speeches, grace and class. But I am totally a Suzanne, with a little bit of Charlene. Which is just fine, too. My favorite episode is not "The Beauty Contest" from Season1, which features Julia's "...the night the lights went out in Geor-gia" speech. My favorite is "Dash Goff, The Writer" from Season 2. Dixie Carter, Annie Potts, Jean Smart, and Delta Burke made a foursome that is just unmatched.
I can't wait to see what everyone else has to say! Tuesday's become my favorite day of the week!
Stopping by from 2OT.
ReplyDeleteI didn't think of those two, but they are definitely one's I miss watching. Thanks for sharing!
I LOVE Designing Women. It's one of the thorns in my side that it doesnt air, nor is it available on DVD. The night the lights went out in Georgia...CLASSIC!!!
ReplyDeleteMan, I haven't seen Designing Women in ages. I should totally find that on TV and re-immerse myself!
ReplyDeleteGilmore Girls is on my post too!! LOVE it.
ReplyDelete@Erin It is available on DVD! Check Amazon. I have the first four seasons.
ReplyDelete@Megan (Best of Fates) It is well worth it, Megan! It was a show ahead of its time!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, Designing Women.. That was a fun one too. It is so neat to see what every one misses..
