I. For some reason (possibly because I really liked the dialogue in The Social Network?) I decided to start watching The West Wing. I'm three episodes in and it's a lot better than I expected. I do think I'm not American enough to fully love it though. There are moments I think I should be feeling patriotic and obviously nothing is happening? :P
It's actually quite funny. And for a show that consists purely of people talking very fast while walking down corridors, it's not really all that boring.
Character-wise, so far I love CJ and think Sam is painfully boring. And everyone else is fun as well. But you know, only three episodes in so that may change.
I will keep you updated. It's not a show to really marathon so it may take years to finish.
II. For people who were interested in where my new username comes from: Have an incredibly bad and cheesy music video!
So yes, "Muneca Brava" was an Argentinian telenovella from 1999 which I really loved at one point and is more or less my first big tv obsession. The title very loosely translates as "fierce doll". I found it because the stars later did another telenovella together, "Sos Mi Vida (MartÃn & Monita)" which used to air on Belgian tv. That one is even cheesier.
The plot is: a young orphan girl comes to work as a maid in the house of a rich family of snobs, she and the son of the family fall in love. It then takes them over 200 episodes and a lot of shenanigans to get together properly. But the 2 leads are really pretty and I loved all that drama. Those things are really addictive, okay.
Aw, now I'm feeling all nostalgic watching these crappy videos.
