Hey, Couchtime readers! After taking the summer off, I’ll be extending my blogging hiatus for a few more weeks while I go on my honeymoon in Italy.
This summer, I mainlined the entire series of The Good Wife and caught up on the first season of Brooklyn 99 – both shows I’m glad I watch now.
The first season of The Good Wife was a bit too procedural for me, but by the second season I was fully onboard. I love the recurring guest stars, and the fact that there are larger story arcs on top of the cases-of-the-week. Brooklyn 99 is as funny as I’d heard, and I was totally onboard by the Thanksgiving episode. I’m glad I watch it, since I was so disappointed by New Girl last season and don’t have high hopes for where the show will go this year.
The show I’m most excited to have back is The Mindy Project. It really ended on a strong note last season, and based on sneak peeks that Mindy Kaling’s been sharing, it’s going to be another great season. And of course, the final season of Parenthood. I expect to feel all the feelings.
As far as new shows go, the only one that’s caught my eye so far is Marry Me – from the great folks who brought us Happy Endings.
See you in October!
