I had two babies then and it felt real...even though the characters were not like me I felt like they were real people. There was something about the show that made me hope their lives worked out.Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16727615822243830106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827744487724967185.post-40708162461540399262012-06-17T16:51:00.214-07:002012-06-17T16:51:00.214-07:00haha i know!!!haha i know!!!Lynn Proctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16349867270815243053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827744487724967185.post-82606199376852706902012-06-17T16:50:28.048-07:002012-06-17T16:50:28.048-07:00no i never watched "lost"---i loved &quo...no i never watched "lost"---i loved "brothers and sisters"--and years ago, i loved "st. elsewhere"---now i kinda like "grey's anatomy"----and i don't usually like cop shows--but i used to love "cagney and lacy"---i love tyne daily in almost anything! you're welcome mare :)Lynn Proctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16349867270815243053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827744487724967185.post-42655408205223415222012-06-17T15:03:45.126-07:002012-06-17T15:03:45.126-07:00I'm with zebsmom.

I will never forget when they killed off Gary! I thought the writing was really good, and I had a real heart attachment to it. It had kind of a cult following. My son recently bought me the first season, and I'm enjoying it again. I loved the shows about Nancy's cancer too...they were so beautifully done. I miss that kind of angst-ridden show. Did you ever get into LOST? It had some of the same qualities. <br />thanks for the memories!Marianne (Mare) Baker Ballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03663143060069193124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827744487724967185.post-87729465049488937992012-06-17T12:15:12.012-07:002012-06-17T12:15:12.012-07:00LOL!!

That episode just destroyed me.<br /><br />I did enjoy seeing some of the cast come back in different episodes of Brothers and Sisters. Ken Olin (Michael from Thirtysomething was the executive producer of Brothers and Sisters) and he brought his real life wife to be a perminate character to the show as well, she is Patricia Wetting who played Nancy on Thirtysomething.<br /><br />I miss both shows, and what a great deal you got!!

Awhile ago, I pulled up episodes of Lamb Chop's Play Along with Shari Lewis. It was a show from my childhood but it seemed so much better than the stuff that is on the tube for kids nowadays. So much more original.<br /><br /><a href="http://thewritersexperiment.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Sarah @ The Writer's Experiment</a>Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08131822804248899680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827744487724967185.post-57136726918481126632012-06-16T08:27:40.262-07:002012-06-16T08:27:40.262-07:00I never watched that show.
