TV shows.... what are you watching these days?

I’ve been watching All Creatures Great & Small (newer one - only 3 seasons) and Miss Scarlett & the Duke on PBS.

Sounds interesting, Hope4Healing. I haven't seen either of those.

Currently I am watching Grey's Anatomy - semi-binge watching. I allow myself a few episodes a day unless I have decided I need a rest from responsibility and then I shut myself in my room and watch several episodes.

I also like Call the MIdwife (call me strange). I would love to watch The Resident, but I missed the beginning and can't find a free streaming service that has it.

I have read The Handmaid's Tale. Don't know if I could watch it. I think it might be triggering.

We've been watching Australian Idol. They are making their way to the final 12 contestants.
Also, looking forward to the return of The Good Doctor, which was stopped mid-season because apparently cricket, tennis, and other summer delights are more important.

Tonight we are watching the news about the anniversary of the bombing of Darwin (Australia), 81 years ago today.

I love call the midwife.

A few years ago I enjoyed call the midwife very very much, and I read the book

I want to watch the Handmaid’s Tale, Timey, but am waiting for it to be available on one of my streaming services where I don’t have to rent or pay a fee.

Right now I am looking forward to my favorite cooking competition show to start season 3 - Alex V. America. (I think the first episode is on tonight - yay!)

I’m also enjoying The Pioneer Woman with Ree Drummond. Her recipes that I’ve tried so far are really quite good and, most of all, something that I can actually DO in the kitchen.

And I’ve been watching 1,000 lb Best Friends and Crikey, It’s the Irwins!

I love call the midwife.

The series recently began a re-run from the very first episode here. I decided to watch it as I'd only seen fragments of some episodes before.

I was so much enjoying the show, looking at something set in the decade in which I was born and the developing characters.

Unfortunately, I've had to give it away. The acting is so good that I cannot cope with the birth scenes. You'd think now my children are all grown up it wouldn't be an issue, but the show is so evocative, I've had to put it aside. I can't bear to go through childbirth once a week!

I'm always saying how thrifty I am, but I wanted to see every episode of The Great British Sewing Bee so took out a subscription.

On the same streaming service, I have also discovered Somebody, Somewhere. I am enjoying a story about people whose lives are not glitzy and I'm also enjoying seeing life set in Kansas. It looks so different from where I live. I find myself looking at the landscape, the housing, the way people speak. I feel to have been transported somewhere else.
