Okay, so, I'm usually the first to rain on the parade that is Australian television. Particularly Australian dramas. Typically they're cliched rip-offs and it's hard to figure out in which ways the chronically over-used Aussie actor is trying to differentiate this character from the character they played in the last Aussie drama they 'starred' in.

I reallllly think you would like Puberty Blues BUT... at the same time, I'm unsure how the Aussie-isms would translate? Like, they're so second nature to me that it's not until I think about reccing it to non-Aussies that I have to think about it but... I JUST DON'T KNOW! I read some comments on tumblr from 'international' viewers saying that it's really hard to follow the dialogue due to, not only the accents, but the language used. SO I DUNNO MAN! I think, if anyone could do it, you could do it!

It's awful, but it's beautiful. Which will make no sense unless you watch it!

Also, you equate me with the CW?? I'm not sure what to make of that! Haha! Because I watch all my tv via steams I usually have no clue what network they're from. DO I WATCH A LOT OF CW?? I thought it was only The Vampire Diaries and Teen Wolf! Haha... oops. STELLAR LADIES, THOUGH? I will take all of those that I can get ♥ (which is whyyyyy you should watch Puberty Blues *cough cough*).

leobrat has also been extolling the virtues of Reign left, right and centre... And I'm in the market for a new show... HMMMM!

*and, dude, I can't find words for how honored I am that you ranked us near Izzie Stevens! Not even an exaggeration.

I appreciate your faith in me! Just for that, I'm going to see if I can't find the first episode and at least give it a try.

It probably is only The Vampire Diaries and Teen Wolf that you watch on the CW. And tend to grab onto something and roll with it whether it's an actual pattern or a two show coincidence. That said, I do think you'd love Reign given the ensemble cast, attractive people, high drama, pretty outfits and, as we discussed, LADIES.

FYI, leobrat is 100% to blame for me watching it.
