The Fifty Year Old Fan Girl

OK, well I’m not quite fifty … but soon. Interestingly, I seem to have had a huge fan girl resurgence for television. It’s kind of weird and I think something to do with the fact that I no longer drink. Aside from the fact that I’m actually awake in the evenings now, instead of snoozy from pre-dinner drinkies, I seem to get great pleasure from listening to endless TV storytelling. I currently don’t find that enjoyment in movies, yet as a teenager I was movie mad. From a writer’s POV I think there is some truly excellent work going on in television – so much so that I wish I’d had the opportunity to work in that medium. Not that I would ever leave novel writing permanently. My sanity wouldn’t allow.

Anyway, tell me what you all think. Is it just me, or has TV really gotten better?
