Ever since I can remember, Sunday night has always been about finishing up homework, dreading the weekend being over and the tedious week ahead, and of course, watching television. Now that I'm not in school anymore, Sunday nights just don't feel the same way, even if the not fun homework part has been replaced with the way fun (and yummy) soondooboo dinners at so gong dong with the gang. But the television tradition still remains, thanks to my newfound interest in the Simpsons, the creative upswing Desperate Housewives has been on, and one of my new favorite shows of the season, Brothers & Sisters.
The thing is, the show isn't one of my must-sees, so I don't get upset when I miss an episode or anything. But whenever I do watch it, which is more often than not, I love it a little bit more. It's the perfect blend of funny and drama, it's well written and acted, and all the characters are really likable. I'm not a fan of Calista Flockhart at all, but I don't mind her so much on this show. I think the reason why I love the show aside from the aforementioned reasons is because I love watching the family dynamics of all the Walker siblings. Every fight, banter, issues that come up- they all stem from this deep-rooted love they all have for each other. I'm totally fascinated by it. It's probably because all of that is pretty foreign to me as an only child. It makes me wonder what it would have been like to have brothers and sisters of my own- whether I would get along with them and be friends with them or want to have little to do with them as possible. I imagine my life would be very different, and perhaps I as a person would be too. Maybe that's why I'm so drawn to the show; it feeds a desire to live vicariously through the Walker clan. Anyways, it's a good show.
Also, I think
Dave Annable, who plays the baby of the family, Justin, is really really cute.
