Treme Season II
Treme, Season 2 (Created by Eric Overmyer & David Simon, 2011)
New Orleans, Hurricane Katrina aftermath, Music, Race Issues, Socio-Cultural, Mardi-Gras
I loved the first season of Treme and was thoroughly impressed by the second. I find myself devoted to these characters, their troubles, their passions, and the city they all call home. The music is tremendous, as usual, with more all-star guests. Everything about this show is emotional, beautiful, and vibrant.

Back from Vacation, August Video Clips
I didn't post much last month since I was enjoying a conference in Indianapolis and then vacation in Vancouver. But I'm back now and ready to go!
Since the Olympics has taken over my viewing time, I've decided to do an August experiment: Starting next week, I'll be posting video clips of favorite films and television shows at least twice a week for the remainder of August. I think of it as a nostalgia trip and a "sampler," if you will, of my tastes. So stay tuned for a daily dose of drama, comedy, education, etc.
