Not knowing what you may have seen recently, here are some things I've gone crazy for in the past year or so:
- North and South (BBC miniseries) - it's historical, it has an AMAZING romance, the music is quite lovely, it's set during the industrial revolution, it features the one fictional character who can eclipse my love for Mr. Darcy...
- The Painted Veil - The Illusionist - Sidney White (this is a ridiculous teen-ish comedy/romance, that isn't particularly great, but its about how awesome it is to be nerdy, and I really really like it, as total feel-good, brainless fun) - Waitress - The Reckoning
If you're into TV series on DVD, I highly recommend a series called Slings & Arrows. Each season is only 6 episodes (and there are three), and it's loosely based after the Stratford Festival here in Ontario, which is one of our more prestigious drama festivals (as the name would suggest, centering predominantly around Shakespeare). Knowing your background in theatre, I think you'd really really enjoy it.
