Didja See That New Show Parenthood?

Did anyone else see the new NBC show Parenthood the other night?  I would tell you when it was on, but we DVR everything so that everything is on whenever I want it to be on, which is as it should be.

Anyway, I don't want to talk about the characters or the plot or the dialogue or anything related to any of the above.

I want to talk about that guy from Coach's house.  I guess the grandparents house.  You know what I mean...

It was like porn.  I was moaning.  I am not proud to say it, but when I saw the porch, I began to think impure thoughts about the house, and I did not stop until twenty minutes into the news.  I felt like I needed a cigarette after the show was over.  It is one amazingly GORGEOUS house. 

The trouble is, the show is new and there aren't many photos where you can see the house...  This is the best I can do:

Yes, yes, you're all very attractive and interesting,
now get out of the way and show me that stonework!

The promo pictures are fine, but they do not feature my favorite character - the house!  Show me more house!!  In fact, NBC, I think we need a virtual tour of the house on your website, including links to where certain light fixtures and other items can be obtained.  You could partner with Home Depot and build a replica of the house for some lucky mommyblogger...  

I'm just sayin'.

Did anybody else notice the house?  Did you covet?  I covet the house.  I'm going to go look at floorplans...

If you could live in any TV or movie house, which would it be and why?  And what TV house most resembles your actual house?

The house from the 1990's "Father of the Bride" movies. When we were house shopping nine years ago, we looked at two dozen houses in two days (I know - what were we thinking?) Didn't find anything we loved but kept coming back to this one neighborhood. Out of the blue, my husband turns to the realtor and increases our budget by 1/3 (!!!). His rational: This is the Father of the Bride neighborhood you love.

We didn't find a FOTB house (our mid-80's builder's special ain't it), but we do live in "that" neighborhood. Though this house drives me crazy on a daily basis, I wouldn't trade where I live for anything.

...well maybe the one at 24 Maple Drive in San Marino, CA... ;)

Our house most resembles... hmm... the one from Roseanne.

I JUST finished watching it (we DVR it too!). You are right...the house is awesome! I have to say though, I did love the show...I think it could be one of the best that I've seen in a while!

The episode is still on our DVR from last week, but I'll keep an eye out for the house.

(And I'm with Heather - the first show I though of was Roseanne. Sigh.)
