[isabelle]

I love that show too, Isabelle. 

I can very much relate to David Fisher.

Well, the funny thing is, David, so can I !

But a series like SFU may not be what was meant by "TV show"? If I told you about the show I watch in France, I don't think you'd know. Anyway, it's called "ce soir ou jamais" (tonight or never), and is very good (a bit intellectual , but I like it).

[Kerry]

I also like "Everybody Loves Raymond". I think Ray Romano is so cute on that show.
