This show is a rare treasure on TV

For those out there looking for a rare treasure in television shows, look no further than "Being Erica". For those in the U.S. PLEASE overlook that it's on SoapNet. When I was first referred to the show & saw that it was on SoapNet I had my doubts. I'm so glad that I didn't let the network stop me as by the end of the show, I was hooked and left wanting more. The writing for this show is brilliant, intelligent, thought~provoking, and done in a way that's funny and relatable. I cringe however after reading somewhere else that this show may become "American~ized and premiere on a major network". I hope not. Why? Because I cannot see anyone other than Erin Karpluk portraying Erica Strange. Ms. Karpluk gives a phenomenal performance as Erica Strange (you hear that Hollywood producers & directors?). The rest of the cast, including Michael Riley, as Dr. Tom give great performances as well. I would LOVE to see a book with all of Dr. Tom's quotes in it as well as Erica's insights that she has at the end of each show. Thank you so much to the actors, director, producers, and writers who make this show A MUST SEE!!! : D
