what an amazing dramedy.

especially the first several seasons. so many wonderful characters, it really has something for everyone.

buttery voiced john corbetts seamless radio-narration and its philosophical bent fits right in with a town full of quirky personalities. the indigenous population playing a wonderful straight-man to the town.

it even holds up well. the remoteness denotes a lack of tech that isnt too far out of place today.

this is one of those shows where you just want to be a part of it.

it could also never be replicated/rebooted successfully… lighting striking twice and all that.

anyone else have such fond memories of northern exposure? im about to start my per-decade rewatch.

    Yes, I love this show and was just thinking about it yesterday.

    I think about it a lot, and actually went to live in Alaska for a few months in no small part because of that show.

    I often think of setting up a little TV in my room that just has Northern exposure on it and you can just click start and then a random episode of Northern exposure will start on.

    I’m probably going to do this at some point.

    It’s the perfect TV show for just a glimpse of a very unique perspective and culture.

    so many of the plot lines are unique within the realm of television, too.

    Great to hear someone bringing it up.
