i will say this again..
if you don't watch this show you are missing out on some really entertaining shit.
one day during a particualrly bleak february, my little cat harry had just died and i was sicker than donkey balls.
i was laying in bed with my computer and i was told by someone (sorry if i forgot who you are..it could have been several people...i was feverish) that i should be watching this show.
i watched it over 2 days.
i lived for it.
it pulled me back up from the darkness of malariafluebolasads.
now, finally, season 2 is airing this sunday in the US.
last month they re-aired season 1 and i demanded that mike watch it.
i knew he would love it.
and he did.
does.
so now we are both nerdily excited over it.
i have never steered you wrong in the TV department before and i don't aim to start.
so watch it..start with season 1 though or you will be sort of lost.
ok..so i know that design sponge does a column called 'living in' and this is my version/homage/rip off of that column.
i believe there is no real purpose for this column other than the possibility that you can buy some shit to make your house and body look like a character from said movie/tv show.
but it's still extremely enjoyable to look at..
plus it combines my love of moodboard making and TV/movies.
win win.
so..
here you go-
