"Bleak House" Part 1

I love period pieces and have found myself sucked into yet another BBC Drama! I have been watching 'Bleak House' (a 3-disc, 15 episode series). At first, I wasn't really drawn in but have now found myself awake at the wee hours of the morning to catch a few more episodes before I start my day! I don't know...it could be that I'm just a real sucker for the accents again since I LOVE English people...but there is something to be said about the characters as well. Perhaps it all comes down to the writing but I think they have a real knack for casting, as well. The characters are so rich and delightful and spur so much emotion, both positive and not so positive. It has even drawn me away from another series that I have been following (and also quite enjoying), however...it has taken a most assured back seat to this one. I can't wait to finish the series tonight and I know I'll be buying it for myself very soon! Can't wait to see how it ends!!!

Sounds interesting. I found myself in the same "addictive" series mode during my last pregnancy. Since I was on bedrest, I needed to have something to do to pass the time. What happened is that I watched the first two season of "The L Word", the first season of "Lost" and the first season of "Deadwood" on DVD. I couldn't stop watching any of the programs and I often stayed in front of the TV for eight hours without moving. I would also forego sleep in order to watch the next episode since I was "addicted".
