I watched the entire series and delighted in it, 100%. I can only hope it will continue to a second series, since both the producers passed away last year :-( hard to say.
I watched
Julie and Julia last night and found the parts about Julia delightful and the parts about Julie slightly annoying and uninteresting.
While I was conscious of Meryl Streep being Julia, she caught just the right amount of effervescence or joie de vivre that personified my perception of who Julia Child was and is. I loved it.
The most important thing, the film made me hungry and want to cook and cook outside the box, adventurous food. I do not own Mastering the Art of French Cooking, but this almost made me want to buy it.
