On the ledge

By On May 3 2013, 9:59 am

I admit it: I love television. There are a few shows I am hooked on. My DVR is filled with episodes of: Once Upon a Time; Grimm; NCIS; and The Mentalist. As you can tell, I tend to go for the drama, although you will find a block of The Big Bang Theory in the mix.

But this time of year many of my favorite shows go on hiatus for a time. Bummer. Even worse is that many of them end on a cliffhanger. Will a favorite character live?

When I was a kid, my family and I went to my grandmother’s every Sunday for supper and my cousins and I were expected to play together nicely.
