More of The Middle

Has anyone else out there discovered one of the best kept secrets on television called The Middle?  It is on Wednesday nights at 8:00 Pacific Time on ABC.  It is hilarious.  If you want to feel better about your parenting skills or your life, watch The Middle.  I try and stay away from shows that make me feel less than adequate such as Grey's Anatomy.  Come on!  Those women are brilliant and beautiful doctors.  I like The Middle.  It is about a really ordinary family.....and I mean ordinary.  They live in Indiana....in the middle of the country.  They are middle class.  Their house is a disaster area and their parenting skills leave much to be desired.  But, they are just like the rest of us out there, trying their best to make ends meet and keep their kids on the right track.  Their daughter, Sue, has tried out for every team imaginable at school and finally makes the track team, because it is a "no-cut" sport.  Somehow, I relate to Sue.  Remember the substitute cheerleader story? Not to mention that I also grew up in Indiana.  Anyway, it is very funny.  It stars Patricia Heaton from Everybody Loves Raymond and the dorkiest kids you will ever see on TV.  Watch it, you won't be disappointed and you will feel great about yourself, too.
