fabrisseUntil, oh, about a week ago, I'd have said Criminal Minds. I love that it's an ensemble show. I love that it's a procedural that seems to be more about the procedure. I love that it respects the victims. (Yes, I'm looking at you CSI franchise with your tasteless quips. They aren't MASH quality black humor; they're tacky.)
Moreover, there were three women on the show, none of whom was an appendage to a man, though two are in relationships, and each with distinctive personalities and job roles.
Last week, one had her option dropped and one is now in negotiations for a severely reduced role. While I love the third character, a hacker named Garcia, to pieces, she's the most conventionally girly of the three.
The thing is, there are other shows I like, but I don't care enough to proselytize for them. I think the last show I really did that for was Smallville back in the early days when it was so sparkly it broke people's gaydar.
*sigh*
