Do you like Kathy Bates?

[sommap]

If you do, tune in to her new t.v. show.  It is on Monday nights and is called Harry's Law.  I just watched the first episode that I had taped and liked it.  It is almost refreshing to see an older, overweight woman staring in a show.  If there is such a thing, she is a typical Kathy Bates character - outspoken, etc.  She is a pattent attorney who got burned out, quit the firm and opened a small law office in a bad part of town.

LOVE Kathy Bates, and I was so surprised to see an Actress for Movies do a TV show, especially K.B. As to the older, overweight woman, I don't think she was the first by any means. In a similar TV Show called "The Practice", do you remember Camryn Manheim as Ellenor Frutt? Quite a bit taller than K.B., but none the less, a "big-boned" lady who was a dynamic performer. TV has come a long way since they let Lucille Ball be the first pregnant woman on TV. (Someone's gonna nail me on that factoid, I'm sure, but that's what I have heard anyway).

But yeah, to reiterate, watch "HARRY'S LAW", great show. Though in the first episode, I was surprised that a network would allow the few "Choice Words" she used in the show. Took me by surprise.

   Yes, I do like Kathy Bates a lot!  I enjoy her ability to play different roles. One of my favorite movies with her was "Misery" (Stephen King's) where she played a psychotic fan of a writer (James Caan) of romance stories.  He killed off her favorite character so she kidnaps and holds him hostage and that's where her psychotic self steps in.

Then in an opposite role, she played Adam Sandler's mom in "The Waterboy."  I remember her being in "Titanic" and "Revolutionary Road."  There are so many others, as well as t.v. shows, that I've seen her in.  She is really a very talented actress.
