Northern Exposure (1990–1995)
7/10
An aged and boring once cutting edge hour show.
26 July 2008
I used to watch this with some frequency. Unfortunately, time has not helped this once great program.

This show has gone into a time warp and reappeared 20 years later without the same punch it once had.

I find it now to be slow moving and not very engrossing as it once was.

I think the evolution of TV shows and their quick scene changes and edge of seat action has ruined this show.

I was somewhat bored watching and found myself drifting off into doing other things while it played in the background and then eventually turned it off without finishing.

Maybe it was the episode I was watching. The one where the doctor got a dear john letter. Lots of dream and imaginative scenes that left me snoring.

Chris's narrative and psycho babble seemed corny and assumptive to me 20 years later.

Maybe I need another 20 years and then give it another view.
