I love Go On

Hope you all have had a fabulous holiday!!

For some reason, I don’t have the patience or temperament for dramas right now. I used to watch Grey’s Anatomy religiously, but have no interest in it now. Maybe it’s because I have less time, or maybe it’s because they killed off a bunch of people I like. Either way, I seem to want to watch happier, shorter shows. The Home Warrior and I have been catching up on past episodes of Parks and Recreation, watching reruns of The Big Bang Theory, and I have found a new show that I love.

In full disclosure, I am a HUGE Friends fan, have seen all the episodes, and can pretty much relate every issue in life to a Friends situation. Now that that’s all out there, I have to say: I love Go On. Matthew Perry is hilarious, and not in an entirely Chandler-esque way. The story lines are funny, but go a little deeper than your average sitcom. The basic tenet is that Matthew Perry is a sports talk radio host who lost his wife recently. In order to get back to work (which he desperately wants to do) he has to go to a loss support group full of interesting personalities. Shenanigans ensue.

I look forward to the show every week, and caught up on several episodes during my recent trip to El Paso (hooray Hulu Plus!). Hope it stays around for a while!

Here is the beginning of my favorite episode:
