Is anyone else watching ABC Family's "Switched at Birth". I mainlined the whole thing, and do recommend it for the teen soap loving crowd. It also deals with the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing community, which I am finding an interesting twist. It also somehow got picked up for 22 more episodes. For the same season, but in January. WHich seems nutty to me. Tha had 8 episodes, and then then were picked up for a "back 22". Weird.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's a poster I pass going home that's advertising a salad with the byline "Best use of peach since pie."
Sorry, Sammy. Deanny wants pie now.
And I found fresh peach pie at the expensive supermarket. Nom.

I had delicious peach pie Saturday night, thanks to Consuela.

Sophia, yes - my 13 y.o. niece had me watch several middle episodes with her, and just last night I watched the final three. On my own, that is, so I guess there's something there -- the kids are pretty engaging and occasionally annoying, which is seems about right. Emmett and the brother are cutie patooties.

I've been watching it. I thought some of it was a bit too teen-angsty, but a lot of it was really well done. And, it's probably the best non-documentary look at issues in the Deaf community that I've seen. There are a ton of things they don't look at, but I thought the arguments over implants and oralism were done really well.

I am a little nervous, because it is Paul Stupin (show runner of Dawson's Creek post Kevin Williamson), but I have to say that I think Emmett might rival Pacey.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Thanks, Stephanie!

Ooh, I haven't seen Switched at Birth. I don't think I knew it was a TV series; for some reason I assumed it was a TV movie when I saw the ads.
I do have to fess up to having seen every single episode of Pretty Little Liars, though.

He is completely adorable.
