My show is back, my show is back!

My new favorite show is The Office. If you haven't seen it, I couldn't recommend it more. It's a sitcom about an office of co-workers that is hilarious, and every once in a while the laughter is a little dark and uncomfortable. To me it beats anything else on TV, and I have been counting the minutes until the next episode arrives each week. My favorite character, obviously, is Jim Halpert. He's #1 on my celebrity list, beating out all the Brad Pitts of the world.

I've also been renting dvds of Sex and the City. I never watched it when it was on HBO, for some reason the women kind of bugged me. But they have won me over, and the men on the show just couldn't be more wonderful to watch! John Corbett is terrific, I loved him in My Big Fat Greek Wedding too.

But my favorite -- my FAVORITE -- was on last summer. It was a goofy little reality show, a la American Idol, but I couldn't resist it. It's called So You Think You Can Dance, and it's a dance competition that includes everything from Tango to Hip Hop. This show makes Dancing With the Stars look like a beginner's class. For eight year olds.

Not only would I watch this show religiously, I would insist on having the home theater, and I would watch it IN REAL TIME, not being able to wait to watch on delay and skip the commercials. I was a fan. So coincidentally I was thinking of this show a couple days ago, wondering if it would ever see the light of day again (or if I could buy it on dvd), when I went to the webpage and found out the season premiere is this Thursday!! I'll caution you that the first couple episodes are likely to be auditions, which is pretty entertaining although the quality of dance is not as high as it will get. But tune in. It's really fun, and it will make you want to learn how...
