Due South is love

[kaaatie]

Back when it first aired, I loved Due South. I loved it.

A couple of years ago, I bought the first season, and to be honest, it didn't live up to my memories. Last year, I got the other seasons, and discovered that most of my great memories were of Kowalski, which is why the first season didn't reach my expectations. I've been watching season 3 and 4 over and over again, and I love it just as much now as I did back in the day.

But anyway, I recently decided that I should re-watch the first season again. Although it still didn't reach the levels of love that I have for CKR's Ray, I liked it a lot more this time around. However, I just watched the final episodes of season 1. That was great television. Victoria's Secret (episodes 1x20 and 1x21) were amazing. Paul Gross completely blew me away with his amazing acting (and hotness), and Ray and Fraser both broke my heart a couple of times. So. Much. Love. :)

I always thought seasons one and two were generally superior television-wise... but Ray Kowalski makes up for the change in tone in the latter seasons. *hearts him*

Yeah, there were a lot of excellent episodes in the first seasons.

Basically, I think that most of what I remembered of it boiled down to "the show with the cute mountie and the hot cop". When I first re-watched Ray V, rather than noticing his great qualities, I was just disappointed that he wasn't Ray K. This time around, I've remembered just how much I loved Ray V too.

*hearts them all* :)
