Treme is an amazing HBO series that follows several New Orleanians post-Katrina. The show really brings light to what life was like for those who nearly lost the city they loved and called home. And because the show follows several different characters from all walks of life instead of just following one character you really get to see post-Katrina New Orleanian life from many different angles. The show also intertwines all the very different characters through the happenings of daily life, thus showing how interconnected they really are through their mutual love for the city of New Orleans: "The city that lives in the imagination of the world."--one of my fav lines from the series.

The show aired this spring and has been renewed for another season. Not sure if this is true or not but I heard that TV shows and movies filmed in the Gulf area are denied insurance if shooting during hurricane season. Does anyone know if this is true? That means that if they didn't already shoot season 2 of Treme over the summer they will not be able to shoot it until January. Which means we have to wait until the spring/summer for season 2. HBO really knows how to keep us waiting don't they? Trueblood won't be back until next summer either :(
I love Treme and New Orleans in general for three reasons: the music, the food and the culture. When you are in New Orleans, you just feel different b/c the energy of the city is absolutely contagious, and the city is unlike any other place you have ever been. It is truly unique; truly special. For a little of NOLA at home check out Treme's Soundtrack. Everything's cheaper through Amazon so click on this link to purchase!
