Re: NBC's Parenthood 2013........so, what do you think.

I have been a fan of this show since it first aired. In a bit of irony, Lauren Graham was a late addition to the cast. Maura Tierney was originally cast in the part, but had to back out after the pilot was shot but before it was shown, due to treatment for Her2+ breast cancer.

Apart from the bc arc in this season, I have thought the depiction of Asburger's Syndrome in the show seemed very honest. Some fans thought the actor that portrays the affected child really suffered from AS, but it turns out he is simply a fabulous actor. It seems that the writers and researchers care enough to get the medical details right.

Pray, LOL, you are so right! But with all the reality, there has to be some fantasy, no?
