Confession

I've been watching Raising the Bar on TNT. At first I wasn't going to because I was so turned off by Zack Morris's hair but I'm still watching anyway. Saved by the Bell was the greatest show when I was a kid, I watched The New Class and The College Years, I watched the first season way back when Ms. Bliss was their teacher...how cool was it that The Parent Trap girl was their teacher! I even watched the shows that were kind of like it but not the same...California Dreams, USA High...tell me you know what I'm talking about. Anyway, I grew up with Zack Morris and his huge cell phone. I even watched a few episodes of NYPD Blue back when but cop dramas weren't really for me back then like they are now. The point is, if he's on TV I'll tune in at least once.

I'm digging his new show. I don't know why, maybe it's because in the past 5 years or so I turned into procedural queen. I don't watch CSI or any of it's many iterations but I do watch every Law & Order religiously. I suppose I just get sucked into all the stories of the accused. Then again it could just all be because of Zack Morris and that damn hair. It takes very little to turn me in to a loyal viewer. Case in point...I'm still watching 90210. No matter how bad that show is I'm still tuning in week after week. I'm getting nothing out of it but I'm still watching. At least with RTB I get Zack. Well, I get him and Lois from Malcolm in the Middle. I've told you before but sometimes I can't separate actors from their previous work. She plays Judge Kessler on RTB and I feel she's what Lois would be in an alternate universe. Instead of losing her shit with her kids now she's starting a bunch of shit with lawyers. She's so underrated. Why hasn't this woman won an Emmy yet? I doubt this show is going to be Emmy nominated but hey, anything can happen.
