When it first aired I was absolutely in love with the series, but I did not know of anyone else who liked it at all. I really felt like ia closeted fan. It was great finding this group. I now feel vindicated that I was not odd in my appreciation of this show. Thanks so much for all your efforts, they are very much appreciated!!
