Laura Linney has been (like Colin Firth) one of those actresses that I've liked for a long time, but have only seen her in a few things. Finally, she's in an incredibly made TV Show that seems to have a consistent viewership, which means I get to see a lot of this fantastic actress.
The show is a very interesting concept. It's a comedy / drama about a woman who is diagnosed with cancer that is inoperable and will most likely kill her within a year. Yes, it is a comedy on the surface, but, over the course of the season it does shift to a drama with a lot of comedic moments. If the premise sounds interesting to you, just beware, it's not on regular cable, it's on Showtime, and therefore does contain a bit of swearing and some sexual situations and drug use. But, it's done in a way that does progress the story.
Overall, a really really great season. I'm looking forward to seeing the second season when it begins to air again. Also, Liam Neeson guest stars in one episode an is absolutely HILARIOUS. It was weird to see him be so funny, as I'm used to his dramatic acting. But, he needs to be in a comedy. It would be awesome!
