This one is hard because I don't watch shows I think I would hate. Generally, I hate shows with vampires, ghosts, reality shows where people are ghost hunting, shows with Jersey in the title, oh – NCIS (I have lots of hate for that), and Cupcake Wars. Those are all bad. No video clips because ew gross.

Challenge, why must you make me choose? 

I'm breaking this up into two different categories. Comedy and drama. I'm going to give you clip of the drama. I'm saving my favorite clip of the comedy for another day. 

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Twin Peaks. Twin Peaks was a bizarre show from the early 90s that not many people I knew watched – my bff and I would watch it while on the phone. It was that kind of show. You needed someone to watch it with and to say, "did you just see that?!"  I loved the quirky weirdness and wacky characters. I liked the music and style of the show. The log lady. The coffee and pie. And Sherilyn Fenn's outfits. 

Here's a clip with David Lynch.

 

And here's a gorgeous haunting song from the show by Julee Cruise.

 

 

I did a Google Image Search for short curly hairstyles.

This will certainly clear things up.

 

Because this blog is nothing if not a window into the classroom of interwebs knowledge, I give you pronounciation guides for hard to pronounce words (found on You Tube).

Worcestershire has always been tricky.

 

This one is handy for talking to the kids today.

 

and my favorite:

 

I'm seriously thinking about making "Jake Gyllenhaal" my voicemail greeting.
