It gets better.

Gotta agree: S4 tests the spirit and the flesh, but season 5 is maybe the best season of them all. The second half of season 5 is the best stretch of the whole goddam show.

I finally caught up on a lot of neglected TV: The Good Wife (love still) and The Mindy Project (my new charming sitcom I can watch without thinking overly much), and also checked out from the library the first season of Pushing Daisies for a re-watch. Haven't seen the show in years, but I had totally forgotten how incr…
