Many years ago I was going on and on and on about a movie I'd seen, about how great it was, the lighting, set decoration, script, acting, music, directing, etc. I realized that when I watched this miniseries, I forgot I was watching... I felt as if I was there. Nuff said.

Saw ad for this series, but was disappointed that so much of the original integrity of these homes is destroyed in renovations. (Instead I'll stick to "Windy City Rehab" on HGTV with Alison Victoria. She ads modern touches but keeps the integrity of the older homes she restores even if it costs her extra bucks. She enthusiastically makes it a point to mention the historic features when showing the home to prospective buyers. Impressive!)

When the series started, and I saw that Zach Galifianakis was starring, I set my DVR to record the series. Yes, I started watching for Zack Galifianakis- I now watch it, primarily, for Louis Anderson. During last season I told my husband, If Louis Anderson doesn't win an Emmy I will be physically ill. Louis won the Emmy, I didn't have to get ill. So glad that Zach & Louis CK saw his potential outside of stand-up. The rest of the cast, it goes without saying, is so special, Scripts are so well written. Truly a gem, I feel very lucky to have found it.
