I watch ABC's "Brothers and Sisters" on Sunday nights. I watch the relationship between Rob Lowe and Calista Flockhart on that show and am always amazed at how it parallels a relationship of mine. How do the writers know what's going on in my life like that? How do I get them to stop mirroring the characters' relationship after my own?

I loved the show "My-So-Called-Life," because I could see myself in the role of Angela Chase played by Claire Danes. Angela pines for Jordan Catalano physically, but is attracted to the mind of Brian (Brain) Krakow [which becomes very apparent when Brian authors a note for Jordan, and darn it all, that's when they pull the show from airing :( !!!!!!].
Recently, though, I like to imagine myself Kitty Walker on "Brothers and Sisters," because she is: passionate about politics/her life's work, a perfectionist and slow to let her feelings show. I also think she is a little "wigged out" about working and falling for a Republican (egads!).
[Although I'd like to just be Calista Flockhart because she gets to go home to Harrison Ford, and kiss Rob Lowe at work....whew!!!]
So the answer is yes, I do feel like a TV show mirrors my life, but probably more accurately I like to see myself in the characters on TV.

For a few years there, I thought The King of Queens had a hidden camera in my house to get plot ideas from. My wife used to give me some weird looks when she saw similarities, which happened all the time.

I sometimes feel that Kim possible mirrors what is going on in my life, especially in the new season 4 where they are all seniors and i am too.

Mine mirrors Will & Grace. I've dated 3 gay guys in the past so my mother calls me "the real world Grace Adler" because I have no gay-dar.
