Eat Pray Love starring Julia Roberts..there's really nothing left to say, but this is looking like another hit staring Julia Roberts herself. It is also based off of the incredibly successful book named "Eat Pray Love", which is based off a true story.

The song is called "Dog Days are Over" by Florence and the Machine in case anyone is interested.

Parenthood recap for the first three episodes.
To start I would like to say that I love this show! Not only because I expected it to be amazing with one of the directors being the likes of Ron Howard, but also because of one of my favorite actresses Lauren Graham being apart of the show...needless to say it is all I expected and more.
Who seems to be the leading character although I thought it would be Lauren Graham I am happily surprised to say it is Peter Krause named Adam in the show. The way he is portraying a father of a kid that has just been diagnosed with Asperger's (Max) is amazing. Not only has he proven to be an amazing father;despite his lack of remembering some of his older daughters (Haddie) soccer games she understands why or at least we think this is the case, but also he is the older brother that everyone dreams of having.He's the brother that gives all the right advice to his younger brother and sisters, which include Lauren Graham (Sarah), Dax Shepard (Crosby), and Erica Christensen (Julia). Along with being a great father (for the most part), and a great older brother, Adam is also the best husband too his wife played by Monica Potter (Kristina).
Along with Krause I have grown to love Potter's character, because like Krause she is portrayed as a great mother who cares about nothing more then her children, and as we found out in this episode for both Krause, and Potter's characters they have put an extra amount of care in sending their son Max to the right school considering his condition.
While Potter has proven to be viewed as the ideal mother figure her sister in law Christensen (Julia) is viewed as likewise. Julia spends pretty much all of her time working at a law firm, and rarely gets to see her daughter (Sydney). With the time being lack their of with the two of them Sydney spends most of her time with her father, and one of the other students mothers. Although this idea of not having the ideal mother figure with their daughter all the time their really isn't any other solution considering Julia is the bread maker as her husband (Joel) is the stay at home dad.Which allows Sydney to have a closer bond with her father rather then her mother. In the episode tonight Julia and Sydney were able to connect on a very good level after Julia taught Sydney how to swim, which was nice to see.
Julia's brother played by Shepard (Crosby) was not married or did not have children unlike his brother and sisters, but as of recently Crosby found out that he had a son (Jabar) with his ex girlfriend played by Joy Bryant (Jasmine). While he has been committed to his fiancee (Katie) for a while, and had just recently promised her that he would be ready to have children with her in 3 years..he does not have that opportunity to wait that long anymore. While the relationship with Jabar and Crosby has already grown it looks like things are going to get a little bit shaky once Katie finds out the truth about who Jabar really is.
Crosby's sister (and my favorite actress) Graham (Sarah) started the series having to move herself and her two children (Drew), and (Amber) back with her parents played by Craig T. Nelson (Zeek), and Bonnie Bedella (Camille). Sarah, and her daughter Amber have to share not only a bed, but also a room at the Bravermen house. Along with Drew, and Amber being upset that they moved away from their hometown,and the fact that their father does not even want to be with them doesn't help much either. Sarah was close to getting a job with a PR company, but found out quickly that she wasn't fit for the job. In tonight's episode Sarah and Drew bonded over fixing their car that has seen it all, and in doing this Sarah was able to teach Drew the idea of being able to support yourselves although she had to move home with her parents she wanted to at least make an attempt to fix her own car, or in other words one of her many obstacles that seem to come her way.
What do you think about this show? Is it all that it was brought out to be?
