Long time no blog? Being Erica.

Hey blog dogs!
lol, I saw some kid blog that on a T.V. show and I thought I'd try it out...
Oh Canadian television, why must you be so cheesy??

Seriously. Degrassi? Life with Derek? Naturally Sadie? 6Teen?????
I mean come on.

But there is one T.V. show that I'm watching that IS a Canadian show, that I am loving. SO much.

It's this show called Being Erica. This show is like... the story of my LIFE being told on T.V.
I originally discovered it because iTunes had a free download for the pilot. I watched it, and I immediately was hooked. Like, more than Corner Gas, which is FANTASTIC.

Brent Butt ftw. I live for the Dog River Table Hockey Summit Series.

But I was watching and this girl, Erica, may as well be named Mickie. She's I think, 20-something, possibly early 30's. She grew up in suburban Toronto. Jewish father grew up in Montreal. Makes horrible decisions. Starts VLOGGING. Brown hair, tall-ish, has some really close guy friends. And oh yeah, lives off of sarcasm.

The show is about her basically going back through her life and fixing all her mistakes thanks to a shrink that she's stuck with.

The show made me really happy to watch either way. Like not even the plotline. But when you can RECOGNIZE where the character is in the city and know where things are not even in the frame, I got excited. I don't even know the street names. Just the places.

There's this part in the beginning of the pilot before she gets rejected for a date where she's in this square in the middle of Toronto which I know REALLY well. I don't remember what it's called, but I'm always there when I go downtown since it's around part of the theatre district. It's this place they call little NYC because it has this flatscreen tower and everything. When it's dark and lit up, it looks a bit like Times Square. But I'm watching this and I see the Hardrock and I'm like "TKTS IS RIGHT BEHIND HER!!" "THE CANON THEATRE IS DOWN THE STREET!!!". I was seriously, just about laughing out loud.

Either way, I strongly suggest you check out this show.

Here's the link to the vlog of the main character:

and just look it up on iTunes "Being Erica" and get the pilot free.
It's pretty much amazing.

Anyhow, sorry for basically advertising this show! :/

I'll blog soon.

Bye <3
