I really love watching Ally McBeal. A lot of it has to do with the characters, the humor, etc, but mostly it has to do with how Ally deals with whole Billy situation. The whole thing between those two reminds me so much of everything that happened with Trisha. Two people, totally in love, who basically grew up together and were inseparable, and then split up because of college. In the show, Billy has found himself a wife, and Ally is still single. And of course every once and a while Ally is reminded of the old times with Billy. This same situation happens to me and I can't say it's always easy. Trisha meant everything to me, and in many ways she still does. Ally goes through life with this same notion about Billy. In reality it's usually really difficult, as it is for Ally when it happens to her. I think most people find it makes great drama for television, I however find it makes for a great recreation of my life.
