I did my PhD in lovely London-yeah UK! As for shows, I always enjoyed Profiler and Providence - female centric shows and the occasional JFlan appearance, which always helps. And Robert Davi in Profiler was a sympathetic character for a change. Also, quirky Ed - a lawyer in a bowling alley just screams mayhem. And Northern Exposure in its first years; quirky as hell always, but the last season or two kind of went off the rails. Old ER is fun for young George Clooney and Hewlett shows up somewhere in the first five years, as does JFlan's wife.

Hope something strikes your fancy!
