O, my love! I'm never prepared to find a show to fall in love with. Alas, it happens when I least expect it. At the moment I'm in love with The IT Crowd and Gotham. Despite this, I'm still open for some further lovin'. Is that wrong of me? Maybe. PBS is going to start airing Indian Summer tomorrow night, and while I don't plan on watching it right away, I suspect I might like it quite a bit. Either way, I'll let you know if and when I watch it. In the mean time, I'm going to be a gothic geek. OKAY?! Okay.
*may be spoilers* I feel as if I should have seen this before, but it somehow managed to escape my notice. But hey, I found it! Great premise, too: Kathleen Turner as a picture-perfect wife and mother, living in a nice house in a nice neighborhood. She's also insane and likes to kill people over the smallest matters. She has a talent for murder, but not, sadly, for covering her tracks. The thought of wearing gloves or wiping fingerprints doesn't even cross her mind. The first half of this is the strongest. After she gets arrested, it loses some of its humor and charm, though it doesn't completely fall flat. Good ending, as well. Ricki Lake plays her daughter, Misty. It's easy to forget about her acting days, especially when you haven't seen her in anything...like me. I liked her in this, and may I say that it was refreshing to have a chubby young actress instead of a typical, thin, dime-a-dozen actress? Overall, not a bad comedy, but not a masterpiece.
