Are there any shows that are helping you get through the strange days we're living through?
I like those reality competitions e.g. the Bake Off, Sewing Bee, Best Home Cook, Pottery Throwdown etc. And things like Bridgerton and Winx, which are total fantasy escapes from reality.
I also remembered Detectorists. Does anyone watch that? A nice, subtle series with nothing horrible happening.
"Dead Pixels" , E4 is brilliant. new series starts tonight
"Staged" on BBC iplayer also excellent
"Serpent" On BBC iplayer OK beautifully filmed, good acting
"Superstore"…
Stranger things, the Big Bang theory,Friends,the Mandolorian there my top ones.
I don't really watch a lot of TV shows, I mainly watch documentaries. I used to watch a lot of, Doctor Who, Star trek, Star Trek The next generation, and all the other Star treks, Still game, All the CSI…
"Superstore" USA comedy series in supermarket --- rewatching it again on Netflix but also available on ITV
"The Great" raunchy satirical comedy , cant remember where it is ( about catherine the great ) probably netflix
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Gilmore Girls, Queens Gambit, Bridgerton, Riverdale are just a few I can think of
Superstore is great. I’ve seen a few episodes
i forgot "Bridgerton"
Salvage Hunters the Restorers - sooooo many talented aspies on one show!
The Great - very clever
Big Bang
Wheeler Dealers
Buck Rogers In The 25th Century.
I watched an episode of that list night, 20 mins of pure silliness. Great fun!
I tend to binge watch before I move onto the next thing...
At the moment - The Expanse - good ol' fashioned sci-fi - on Amazon Prime (Prior to that Star Trek: Discovery but I doubt I'll make the 4th season when it lands, and Haunting of Bly Manor, because I love a good ghost story, even if it wasn't as good as Hill House)
My catch it-when-I-can-shows:
Superstore (funny 1st episode, may stay with this one for a bit)
Star Trek: Lower Decks (still in the do-i-like-it? mode)
Swedish Dicks (Seems silly and quirky enough to stay with it)
Orphan Black
I've a few others lined up (as with most of the things I do, I'm very good at making lists, not so good to getting them done). Looking to return to Westworld, the Knight Templer, and The Living and the Dead at some point)
I'm a fan of Bob Ross doing his watercolour painting :-) And I've been treating my husband to viewings of a situation comedy called Still Game. All episodes of both seem to be available on iPlayer. Something artistic and relaxing and something comedic and an escape from reality.
I can't take Bob seriously after Deadpool did a parody..... (R Rated!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSWl_Uk2VgM
