Person of Interest

So this week, we have come upon Person of Interest (ahhhh I’m actually running out of tv shows….how is that possible?  It’s okay, I still have k-dramas and c-dramas to talk about.)  I’m not sure what to say of Person of Interest other than the fact that I can’t wait for the new season to come out.  I actually really like it even though I’ve mostly moved past crime shows.

Franklin & Bash

Words cannot describe how much I love this show.  I really do, though it’s a different type of love from my other shows.  I don’t know how to describe it.  It’s just so different from all the other lawyer shows out there.  Basically, it’s about two lawyer bffs joining a prestigious law firm and managing to keep their personalities.  The characters are all on point, bringing unending humor to a normally dull and serious work place.  The antics that they get away with is impossible, but watching, you can’t help but wish it was all real.  That would make jury duty a lot more interesting.

Suits

Today, we are going to talk about one of my all time favorite show.  SUITS!  God do I love that show and I know I really shouldn’t!  Still, I can’t stop and it is utterly perfected and am getting excited just thinking about it…and exasperated.  Harvey and Mike tend to do that to you.

Anyway, a summery.  Suits is a show about lawyers.  Harvey is a senior partner is a high profile law firm.  Mike is a college dropout with eidetic memory that takes tests for money.  Anyway, things happen and somehow Harvey ends up hiring Mike because he likes Mike’s spunk (though he won’t admit it) and he sees a bit of himself in the young man.  The only problem is that the law firm only hires graduates from Harvard and Mike did not graduate from college, no less Harvard.  But he fakes it til he makes it and his situation brings an appropriate mix of tension throughout the series.  Other important characters include Donna: Harvey’s secretary, Jessica: the managing partner and Harvey’s boss, Louis: another partner that is Harvey’s frenemy, and Rachel: Mike’s love interest.

Chuck

It’s like I start a new show every week.  I don’t, really, I don’t.  I just talk about a new show every week.  This week is Chuck.  Chuck ended last year, but I’ve only just decided to pick it.  I was watching Nerd HQ videos from SDCC and I decided that I quite liked Zachary Levi.  Seeing as he’s most famously known for Chuck, I decided to check it out.  It really is a good show.
