Northern Exposure (1990–1995)

Never has been or ever will be another show like NE!

[10/10 · 12 September 2021]

I have watched every episode of NE at least 15 times. It came out when I was 22 and ended when I was 26. It impacted my life like no other show ever. During the time it was on TV I traveled around the country and have managed to get in 41 of the 50 states. I've met John Corbett. Nice guy but he is Chris in the morning. Huge guy. I'm 6' 225 and he made me feel small. This show changed the way I thought and looked at things. It made me want to experience life in every way possible. It made me want to read and learn! My favorite show of all time hands down. It was so quirky and sharp. Everyone was interesting and led interesting lives in a super small town. It made me live life to the fullest! That show could run today and be as relevant as any of this "woke" crap. Adam is one of if not the most eccentric and fascinating characters ever on a movie or TV show! Maybe Mr. Spock or Mulder and Scully but that era of TV broke us out of 80s cookie cutter clean family shoes into a world where you had to think & watched with fascination at every episode. The writers struck gold with that show snd as far as I'm concerned it was the Beatles of TV! It made me think outside the box snd realize that TV was not reality, that life was infinitely more complicated and sometimes there is just no explanation for some things. There will never be a show like NE again but I have all 6 seasons snd I used to want a 25 years later return to Cicely but it's perfect as is! 99% of tv is trash, this is the 1% that changes your life!
