Obsessed

I’m not sure if I’ve talked about it on here or not but I’ve recently figured out how to stream onto my Kindle.

I hardly ever watch TV at home because Trevor and Scott dominate it. Occasionally something Scott watches will catch my interest, but usually they are watching some kind of cartoon. I haven’t even watched the last five or so Disney movies (I used to LOVE Disney now, eh) so that tells you how much I tune in to Cartoon Network.
People I know are always talking about some kind of series and I’m always like, nope haven’t seen it. But now that I can watch things on my Kindle (with headphones! And it’s portable!)  I've been watching a few shows.

The first show I watched was Downton Abbey. Suburban Correspondent along with my some of my book club ladies had talked about so I thought I’d check it out. I voraciously watched the first three seasons that were free through Amazon Prime. Sadly the next Season you have to pay for so I opted to just go watch something else.



Then it was onto Orange Is The New Black. Jessica had told me about this series awhile back. It’s only on Netflix. Do not watch this show with any children hanging around LOTS of nude scenes. I watched most of it going “OMG!” But it’s got a great story line. I really like when they go into each of the prisoners lives and show how they ended up there. The last episode I watched was such a cliff hanger! I couldn't wait to see what happened. Then I found out that was really the last episode and the new ones come out in June. At least that’s not too long to wait.


Now I've been working my way through Mad Men. I’m on Season 4. If I’m home, I’m probably watching it. I've figured out how to prop up my Kindle so I can watch it while doing the dishes, making dinner, folding laundry, lying in bed, on the couch, at the table, anywhere haha.


I don’t know if anyone else is familiar with this show or not but I just have to say, there has got to be about 50 little Don Drapers running around. That man is such a whore. Has anyone else noticed that all the women he sleeps with are brunettes? Makes me wonder why he married a blonde in the first place!

I just love the clothes that they wear and I'm a little sad that no one dresses up in the office where I work. While I totally hate the way that women were treated, everyone took time and care when dressing. 

If you have recently stopped smoking you probably shouldn't watch this show. Everyone is lighting up constantly. I was born in 74 so when I remember when they started having smoking "sections" in restaurants. My parents didn't smoke but Scott's parents did. He has told me how they would smoke in the car and he wasn't allowed to roll down the window. Sounds pretty miserable!

Do you have a favorite series you like to watch?

If anyone asked the three shows to binge watch, those three are in my top 10…Friday night lights, breaking bad, scandal & house of cards are also really good ones too!

I LOVE MAD MEN!!
It gets better Julie, just wait.

I also love Nurse Jackie.
If you are streaming on Netflix I would also recommend In Treatment. (Season 2 killed me.)and The Big C.
excellent , excellent , excellent but only 3 seasons I believe.
Laura Linney and Oliver Platt are great in this show. It's funny but dark.
