amberfocus: (Drop Dead Diva--Jane)
Drop Dead Diva has been in turns a funny, charming, heartbreaking show and the first three seasons have been incredibly awesome. The concept seems so vapid, the idea of a model dying and a lawyer dying at the same time and the model accidentally coming back in the lawyer's body, but the execution of it has been so wonderful. It could have been very insulting in so many ways, since Jane is overweight and Deb wasn't exactly brilliant, but they have handled it very well. Jane is never treated as anything other than amazing. Each character has been so fully developed and Brooke Elliott simply shines as Jane/Deb. And the shows occassional musical numbers starring this Broadway girl may be somewhat odd (tend to be dream sequences), but are so very well done that they just add to this quirky, off-beat show. So, yes, big, big fan here.

Spoilers for Season 4 )
