White Collar


My husband and I really enjoy White Collar. I think that part of the reason that I like it so much is because I know it’s a show that we can both appreciate. There’s action for my husband, drama for me, and intrigue for both of us. I also like that this show seems to focus on family issues, especially in the newer seasons. For example, the forth and current season (which resumed last night after a six-month hiatus. So excited about that!) is focused on finding one of the main character’s dad, who disappeared when the character was 3 years old. This picture is of the character wearing his dad's police hat before his dad disappeared.


I also enjoy the relationship that one of the main characters has with his wife. To me, this couple is an example of a model couple and I have actually found myself thinking “how would Elizabeth handle this situation?” on occasion (this is totally an example of the Info Processing Model in action, I know… But it’s improving my behavior so that’s good!). I like to tell myself that these nice themes cancel out some of the violent aspects of the show, but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t work that way. Here is a picture of my "model couple" in action :)
