As I've been dealing with the return of my reader's block, I've been watching a few different shows and one I started today is Not Dead Yet. I'm watching the first season (the show is currently in it's second) and I'm loving what I've watched so far. It's just warm and heartfelt and funny as it follows Nell Serrano, who after a disastrous breakup tries to restart her life and get her old job back as a journalist at the SoCal Independent. However, she's back but not with her old job, she now writes obituaries. But there's a catch, the ghost of the person she's writing the obituary for shows up. And one way or another she gets to know them which allows her to write a very well-written and profound story of their life. The show also centers around her friends, co-workers and roommate and all their interesting issues.
I've only watched the first seven episodes but this show completely grabbed my attention from the first episode. And I can't wait to finish watching the rest of the first season. I'll write more as I watch more episodes because the fourth (Not Dating Yet) and fifth (Not Moving on Yet) episodes that centered around Nell dating were really well-written. She was hiding and running away from her life and prior relationship issues. But in the end, she got some much needed ghostly advice because she can't keep avoiding her life. Anyway, as soon as I finish with the first season, I'll start the second so I can get caught up before the next new episode airs on Wednesday at 8:30 PM EST on ABC.
