I love my city. I love Portland, OR. Grew up here (moved away to the East Coast for 4 years - liked that very much), came home, got married, started a family.
Portland is odd. Portland is laid back. Portland is odd - oh wait, I said that already.
There's a new show starting tonight on the IFC Channel called "Portlandia". (Here's a delightful picture of the statue Portlandia herself as she sits atop the entry to City Hall...)

I think they got it. I do believe Fred Armisen (SNL), Carrie Brownstein (Sleater-Kinney) and Jonathan Krisel (SNL) feel the silliness that is Portland and portrayed it accurately. If the "show" comes across as absurd, I don't care. "Portlandia" is a great take on my town. I love it.
