Normally they are saved for the Republican convention.

Oasis of calm except for the squawking.

Follows the lives of suburban families whose secrets and lies are made public by the appearance of a stranger.

I see on IMBD it's on Netflix too

I enjoyed that one. I watch most British detective/mystery shows when I can find them.

The Worricker Trilogy, Scott and Bailey and Red Rock (that's Irish)

Vera, Grantchester, Luther, Marcella. There are so many! I have a bunch of older ones in my media library.

Don't know if you've seen the George Gently series but if not you can't go wrong.

It's pretty good.

find all Vera seasons. I just signed up for Britbox, but they only have a few.

They don't have all the Seasons. Britbox seems to have the rest

Also some old movies I have on DVD
MASH
Grosse Point Blank
Stripes
Love and Death

One of my favorites

Stay well my friend

Fields and fields of wheat!

Thank you. I practice a lot when I'm by myself.

"I was walking through the woods, thinking about Christ. If he was a carpenter, I wondered what he charged for bookshelves."

I have a lot of faves. Hannah and Her Sisters. Annie Hall. Bananas. Manhattan. Vicki Cristina Barcelona. Match Point. Crimes and Misdemeanors. Sleeper. And, of course, Love and Death.

I haven't been involuntarily forced idle for longer than a day since I was six. I am out of practice!

Do I really have to enter all the passwords on this squishy remote? I'm working up the courage to face it tonight.

and a wireless receiver for both (like, on a pc)?

then plug in the receiver to a usb port on the tv and see if they work

Thank you for the suggestion. The closest I have is my laptop. It worked once, a while ago, then stopped working. I have an HDMI cable. I don't think I have anything else that will connect the two. I'll try it again.

I can stream Netflix right from the TV (and yes, I had to do the password with the remote, which required patience and dexterity!) but cannot find the place to add anything else, like Prime. So we subscribed to Netflix--$8.99/month. I figure we're saving that in going out less.

not allow you to use the keyboard and mouse for tv functions, as they'll not be available (they're not on your laptop, you see?).

If it's not available by default, Amazon will be an app you can add via the TV's 'app store' type dealie. Check the manual for how to download apps that aren't already included. I've put a bunch of them on my cheap TCL Roku TV, like Sunday Ticket and HBO Now. Unless you bought a REALLY cheap TV you should be able to add new apps

What kind is it?

And yeah, dealing w/f****** passwords with a TV remote does suck.

--not a Viera--pre-Viera?
TC-P50U50

In the instruction manual, it doesn't mention anything about apps, and I don't see anything in any menus or lists. There IS way to connect to Google, so maybe I'd go to the App store there?

Yeah says no smart TV features ... I'm impressed you had netflix available on the TV frankly.

So ... nevermind, yeah you won't get amazon prime on the TV directly. Just by an amazon fire stick though and you'll be golden.

It's ONLY seven years old!

Thanks for your help. I'll look up the firestick.

I just plug in the usb and play away?

then it also plugs into the wall.

That one looks great!

Note, very little or nothing comes 'free' with it but it lets you download TONS of apps for services you can subscribe to like Prime. I'm sure that app is already on it though actually

There is light at the end of the tunnel. I think we'll be able to watch season 4 of The Good Place.

Can't beat that old show.

Charles Nelson Reilly for Match Game, and Paul Lynde on the Squares ... but they were always 'hinting' at it if you paid attention.

Richard Dawson was the best part of that show though (or at least I liked him best when I was watching it as a kid) ... but Charles was pretty great too, I remember he sat next to Brett Sommers (who was a special person to me as a kid ... she was the only one else in the world that I had a certain something in common with me, that I knew of ), and they used to mess w/other all the time, they were funny.

Satan & Adam It was good.

And I'm not happy about it.

I'm all set......

Midsommer Murders series
.
Entire series of Winds of War and sequel, War and Remembrance. Have seen both before, but not all at once. Read both books twice. Making comparisons between Adolf and Donald as I watch.

Watched all 4 chapters in a row. Very good! It's the story of Madam C.J. Walker.

And really liked it, too.

but the shit show

Jamestown on Amazon and the movie Booksmart on Hulu.

Because I'm not freaked out enough!!! I just watched the Maple Street one. The difference is we KNOW who the fuc&&&ing monster is but like the one with the six year old Billy Mummy's "Anthony" we can't get rid of it...

on Animal Planet. Puppies and kittens 24/7.

i just couldn't take any more depressing news

Seasons 1-3, while Buck Henry was still involved.

On Amazon Prime for $5.99. Still cheaper than in the theater. I have heard it was great. I'll let you know!

I saw it in the theater when it came out. It was a nice silly film to watch with popcorn and a Vanilla Coke.

on Netflix. Love it! We never tire of it.

Justified, You're the Worst.

I haven't seen the others. I will have to check them out.

Great cast, interesting story, another good movie from Scorcese. Just a little too long.

First, they're great.
Second, beach house porn.

MeTV has sci-fi Saturday night... Svengoulie (The Horror of Dracula), Star Trek original series, Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, The Invaders, Lost in Space, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea....
All shows I loved in my childhood! 😁

Airplane! The Big Lebowski. Fargo. The Princess Bride. Clueless. Body Heat. The Apartment. Double Indemnity. My Man Godfrey. It Happened One Night. Shawshank Redemption. Don’t Be a Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In the Hood. Blazing Saddles. The Sure Thing.

I’m pretty much watching at least one movie a day, movies I’ve watched many times over the years and want to see one last time if my ticket gets punched.

on the ROKU channel! Heretofore we could only find the first five seasons
We decided to just start over from the beginning because we had not watched it in so long.

We just finished "The Durrells of Korfu" I sure did hate to see that last episode.

clairvoyants and card readers

I can't wait to see it! I can't draw a Stickman. But I absolutely love those shows. And the one with Landscapes as well. It's so relaxing. Takes your mind off everything else. Goody! More to come.

Normally I have to wait till one of my weird channels carries it on the TV. Now I get to watch this episode. Thank you so much! I know what I'm doing tomorrow. Right now it's time to go to bed. But I have something to look forward to when I wake up.

You just made my day! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

do the portrait.)
I'm so pleased to share!

BTW if you like Graham Norton, there's an episode from I think around 2016 where the winner painted him -- it followed their meetings and discussions and the final reveal (I've forgotten the proper word for it) at the gallery. It's also a sweeter side of Graham Norton.

Enjoy!

There is a channel called Ovation, and they carry this series, but they are a year or two behind. So I figured I would have to wait. Haven't had breakfast yet and it's almost lunchtime. After that, I'm watching this!

Jamie in the cell w Randall...

Great series!

Turn Away NOW moments

Hiking in Yellowstone, camping , National Park stuff, and things outside, animals. Lots of old 30's and up movies and comedies never seen. Watched the Hatfield's & McCoy's again, and keeping tabs with family and friends. Also working t lose weight and watching my eating much better now. Lost 60 lbs over the last 30 months and losing more. Staying isolated , and hoping everyone can make it through this safely. The Black Book , Reign of Terror , and Patterns ( a Rod Serling film) both free on You Tube and pretty good. Everyone stay safe and in and protect yourselves.

The relaxation programs are on right now.

I lived through the era, but it seems like it took place in an entirely different world than the one we're in.

The Valhalla Murders, set in Iceland, is next.

The Illusionist
The Shawshank Redemption
Luftslottet Som Sprängdes, original Swedish version (The Castle In The Air That Blew Up, in English also called The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo)
The Witness
The Verdict

Stuff where justice wins out in the end against all odds, because it so seldom happens in real life.

Part 2 was the “White Princess” and Part 3 was the “Spanish Princess”. It was about the War of the Roses and all the battles at the time for the English throne.

I never heard of it, I just found it on Netflix and thought it sounded good. It was. I did some background reading on Wikipedia. Interesting period.

A recent, very dark adaptation of one of her stories.

I'm streaming various shows and cycle through them everyday.

Currently on Sling, there's a free preview available for the Hallmark Channels up until May 13th. I'm getting my LHOTP and The Waltons junkie fix because both of these shows are also available on demand.


This past Christmas, my dream of owning all of John Carpenter's Halloween franchise movies on DVD came true, so there's always those I can watch as well.

I could use a tripod though. I'm getting tired of holding them.
I'll post pictures later.
