1. True Blood - continues to rock this season. It's spooky Southern Gothic. And ( sigh, spoilers... )
2. Amy Pallindino-Sherman (Gilmore Girls/Bunheads), Aaron Sorkin (Newsroom/West Wing/Sports Night) and Joss Whedon all have one thing in common - quippy dialogue that you wish you thought or said, but know for a fact that no in reality ever says. In short - the witty dialogue, one-liners, and quips are cool, and lots of fun to listen to, but let's face it - no one talks like this. No one. It's comedy dialogue.
That doesn't mean of course that I don't eat up this type of dialogue like candy. I love it. Realistic dialogue tends to be incredibly boring.
