You know I did the same thing with The Office, except I tried to watch it and couldn’t get into it. I think I’ve tried three times to no avail but maybe I’ll give it another go. I always said I didn’t like that kind of comedy, but The Ladt Man on Earth is a favorite show of mine and it’s that same kind of humor. That show wasn’t as big sadly - I firmly believe TLMOE was a seriously underrated show - but I didn’t get into it until the middle of the fourth season. I binged watched the entire show in under a week and was so sad when it was cancelled after a huge cliffhanger. So I was late to that party. Same with the show Mom. I thought it was just another cute family sitcom but boy was I wrong! Being in recovery myself I can relate to the show but any show on network tv prime time that can get away with these sort of exchanges and do it well, has my attention:
Mother Bonnie: I don’t like doctors.
Daughter Christy: You went to a doctor for your back last year.
Bonnie: And look what happened, I got strung out on pain pills. Who knows? I go in for a mole, next thing you know I'm smoking crack.
Christy: What was your excuse for the first time you smoked crack?
Bonnie: I like crack.
