Hooray!

I'm watching this new CBS show Close to Home -- and I'm probably not liking it enough to watch it regularly, although you never know -- and I saw something cool. The premise of the pilot is that an assistant district attorney (played by Jennifer Finnigan) is returning to work after her maternity leave, whereupon she takes on a case that seems open-and-shut but really isn't. Nothing really earth-shaking, but the show establishes that this woman has a baby at home, and in an early scene, she is depicted as finishing up with a breastmilk pump while at work.

That was seriously cool. You don't usually see this kind of thing on TV shows.
