Karen and I have a lot in common, as you might expect, us being a couple and everything. But there are areas in which our interests diverge.

Take television programming, for example. While we both like cheesy, and we both like reality dance television, and we both hate Paula Abdul, I prefer a heavy dose of geekery while Karen prefers crime drama. I can watch the most wince-inducing Smallville episode and come back for more. Karen can endure more back-to-back episodes of Murder She Wrote than you or I would otherwise believe humanly possible.

What can bridge the divide?

How about a crime drama set in Terry Pratchett’s Discworld?

I think we have a winner.
