Getting On - I don't remember whether I wrote about this HBO show now in its second season, but if you like cringe worthy laughs, this would be the show. It's about Dawn, a nurse on the geriatric floor of some kind of medical facility. And it's a half hour show!
This Is Your Life Harriet Chance by Jonathan Evison - Here's a book for a book group that enjoys long discussions about author intent and character motivation. A 78 year old widow is visited by her dead husband who seems to be visiting her in order to work something out. It's easy and fast to read, sort of good, told in an interesting present tense and set in and around Seattle. Again with Seattle. Which is only to say that a number of books have taken place there recently. If you want to read about Harriet's life, have at it and take it to the club for lots of analysis.
Chicago PD, Fire and Med - They're all great! Night time soap operas with excellent characters, Chicago scenery, and just enough crossover between shows to add complexity and a pleasant connection. PD is my favorite, then Fire a close second and Med is still growing on me, but med shows in general are not my favorite genre.
