American Dreams (2002–2005)
The Looking Glass We like to look in.
10 November 2002
Did any body catch that the Mom's college prof. is Robby Benson with a mustache? This show is different. This show is slow paced and not ashamed. This show is almost anti-TV. There is no formula. Its issues are all over the map and it often offers no pat answers. I wanna watch the show next week because I don't know what is going to happen next. Its kinda like my life now. I don't know if we are going to wake up to war tommorrow or not. Sometimes the characters don't make the right moves from a perspective of social justice 40 years later, sometimes they agonize over it. Economy, Race, War, Womens Rights, Empathy, Elitism, Communication, Family Roles and Responsibility, this show has decided to tackle quite a bit for a few moments of rerunning 40 year old American Bandstand images. The Jerk gave her a typewriter today when his bussiness is in the tank. I cried. This show is the best thing on TV now and I am proud that I get it.
