Got it!

I've been meaning to check out the show. I love Lauren Graham.

I love her, too!!! And I am also really enjoying Dax Shepard (much more than expected). The others are really great, too. Monica Potter and Peter Krause are great. Try it when you have time

[jediwands]

I definitely will! Who is her love interest on the show?

I have watched every season of "Parenthood" and love it! It is one of the few shows on the air that I still watch and respect. Marvelous cast, complex and extraordinarily realistic characters, interesting and relatable storylines. Mmhm! It's a keeper! It's almost so realistic at times that it's difficult to watch. But not in that "trying to be edgy, let's make it like a gritty documentary way"! Unfortunately Tommy Amanny was only in those few episodes in the first season, if I recall correctly.

"Tommy Amanny."

I am very tempted to watch now! What season is it on now?

Parenthood is in its 5th seasons now.

My other nickname for him is Tom Almonds.

Yes, you absolutely should. I think it is the kind of show that would be right up your alley! Family drama, wholesome but realistic, all that. In fact, I would be rather stunned if you didn't like it.

Tom is in season 2, too. Only one episode so far in my watch.

I agree. I'm LOVING it. The cast is awesome. I really love each and every one of them. I'm glad to hear it continues to be great. I always get worried and basically wait for shows to go downhill, but with so many characters on this show, it's hard for it to get boring.

Oh, yes, I remember that now! My, my. It has been far too long since I watched the first seasons of "Parenthood".

I always get worried about that too, as even the best shows tend to decline in quality with age, but "Parenthood" has remained just as stellar now as it was during its first season. Which season are you on? Do you have any favorite characters?

That's really, really nice to hear. I'm toward the end of season 2! Julia just found out that it is very unlikely that she can get pregnant, and Max recently discovered he has aspergers.

I do have some favorites, but I really love them all. There are moments where I get a little annoyed with certain characters (usually Kristina, sometimes Jasmine) but I really do love them all. They're fantastic. If I had to choose favorites, I guess Sarah, Crosby, Joel, Julia would be at the top of the list. As for the kids, I love Jabbar, Max, Amber. Ah I hate choosing, I love them all! How about you?

I love almost all of the characters as well and think they work best as the fabulous ensemble cast that they are! Julia is my favorite though. I can relate to her quite well. And Max is absolutely hilarious! Jasmine used to be my least favorite character, but in the season I'm watching now, that spot has been filled by Joel. I used to like him, but he has changed a lot since the first season...I won't spoil it for you though!

OMG that's horrible news! I love love love Joel. I also love Julia a lot, so if he does something wrong to her, then I will be so upset. I'm nervous now.

I watched the episode last night where Julia asks the coffee girl if she can adopt her baby. It didn't seem crazy until she actually asked. Poor Julia wants a kid so bad. And I can relate to her a lot too!! I feel like she's probably a character that is more difficult to like, but because I can relate, I like her more.

I am keeping my mouth shut! Unless you want spoilers, of course!

Oh, yes, I remember that episode very well! Poor Julia. Aww, you think she is difficult for most to like? Why do you think so?

Do I want to know how you came up with that? I thought dirty for some reason.
