Ten-Word Tuesday. A Wee Obsession

Bossy’s mom made the mistake of going to the library. It’s not the library per se, but the DVDs they keep there. And oh Bossy’s gah, one library card, two cups of tea, and four DVDs later: the HBO series, In Treatment?

At first, sensing Bossy’s excitement at the description on the back of the box, Bossy’s mom was all, “Now you know this isn’t a documentary, right?” And Bossy sighed because Bossy would love nothing more than watching hour upon hour, day after day, of real people in real therapy in real time — which begs the question: Then why didn’t Bossy become an actual therapist? Maybe because there’s so much money in blogging. Heh.

But Bossy thought she’d give the series, starring Gabriel Byrne and others who are not Gabriel Byrne, a chance, even if it is a drama.

Bossy and her mom are still working their way through the first season, but sister mercy, here’s a No Spoiler summary of the events that chronicle individual therapy sessions in real time: She loves him and he loves her but he can’t admit he loves her, and the other he is falling in love with her, and they don’t love each other at all, and she doesn’t know who she loves, and she is getting married, and they are breaking up, and they are reuniting, and they are also breaking up.

There. Bossy can summarize her wee obsession with In Treatment in this way: What (No) Book Tour, and can Bossy drive and watch?

Which is what today’s Ten-Word Challenge is all about. In exactly ten words, can you tell Bossy and her council about your latest TV series obsession, or one you’ve had in the past we can all rent?

And be sure to check back later today for the most obsessive comments on the web.

If you missed last week’s Ten-Word Challenge, don’t! Click this Bossy link to read about the various injuries Bossy and her council have sustained over the years and, oy, the pain!

     I got so excited to talk about TV (not watching it for Lent…)that I forgot all about the 10-word concept. Then I went back and artfully arranged these in groups of 10:

     Big Love, The Office, and Hung (where did it go?)

     Also liked Oz for a few seasons (gratuitous male nudity!)

     Nip/Tuck until the Christmas episode with the old man

     Best of all…Saving Grace and then 2nd is The Closer I love those.
     Firefly…the basis for my blog’s title. There are only like 6 episodes, but I just love them. There is a movie, too.
     Deadwood! I loved that show.
     True Blood…Eric .. Alexander Skarsgård Oh my.
     Glee…love it
     Joan of Arcadia…I really liked that one. Nobody home and I could watch in peace.

     forgot this was a 10 worder…Oh my. There are many more, but I just can’t think right now. I’m not wild about Dexter so much….and Tudors….well, the guy who plays Henry VIII got a little too far into the character…some police issues for him.

     Oh yes…Big Bang Theory totally cracks me up. I can’t watch Mad Men…I lived it and it wasn’t fun at all. I watched a couple of shows and didn’t go back for more. I’m sure there are more.

     Bossy Bossy Bossy….
     Last night I am watching some televison with my wife when commercial for a new movie came on. The movie looked like it might be okay and I noticed that John Cusack was in the movie. I thought “Hey I wonder if Bossy knows about this new John Cusack film?” And then the commercial showed the name of the movie…”Hot Tub Tme Machine” The I laughed. Bossy’s boyfriends carreer has sunk to a new low that he is making a film called Hot Tub Time Machine. Maybe the film is funny and really good…but…c’mon Cusack can do better.
