Board,
I'm out East and it's definitely WEST. At any rate, while watching it I felt like I lost mine the first time (!)
I'm sure this T.V. series - if it's still going on - has been discussed and dissected to death by pundits and sociologists. I saw a few episodes on H.B.O. If I can weather a bunch of neurotic N.Y.-er women, I guess H.B.O. has the whole series for my viewing.
I'm wondering a couple of things:
1. what's the demographic-watching public on this? More women to men, I imagine (!)
2. the lead actress (a kind of Streisand make-over): was she famous before this series? I ask because while her acting is good enough, she's no big deal in any other way. Was she chosen based on previous fame OR purposely for her lack of - ahem - appeal?
Lastly, it's so New York. Too unself-consciously N.Y.
Guyesqueness.
