Schitts Creek documentary, Netflix...boy is the future connected to this show or what!

First of all, if you have not watched every episode of this show, you are missing the best!

If you are like me, sick and depressed all day everyday because of the fascist traitors everywhere, you will love to escape with the Rose's.

This show has a great line: "I like the wine and not the label, does that make sense?" ...in context you will see this is about acceptance and love, two things the traitor in the WH and all of his supporters despise.

After tomorrow we will find out if America is a place that is safe for everyone or it is not.

Perfect refuge from political coverage when you’ve had enough.

I've been hearing it's great.

On a somewhat related topic, that clip reminded me of this story I saw last week

https://www.businessinsider.com/wall-streeters-fooled-expensive-wine-mix-up-at-nyc-restaurant-2020-10?op=1

A mix-up at New York City restaurant Balthazar led to a young couple getting the deal of a lifetime as they were accidentally served a $2,000 bottle of Mouton Rothschild 1989 after ordering an $18 Pinot, Decanter reported.

A server inadvertently poured both wines into identical decanters, restaurant owner Keith McNally explained on Instagram. The $2,000 bottle was the most expensive on the menu, ordered by a table of four businessmen. Not only did the Wall Street table not notice the difference, according to McNally, one of them "tasted the cheap wine before bursting into raptures about its 'purity.'" Meanwhile, the couple who ordered the $18 bottle reportedly joked about being "wine snobs," unknowingly drinking the much more expensive bottle.

McNally wrote that he noticed the mistake and faced a dilemma about telling the diners what happened. The couple were allowed to finish the $2000 bottle, because taking it away would have been "unthinkable" at that point, and they were thrilled to learn of the mistake. They told McNally it was like the bank made a mistake in their favor.

"The trouble was, it was me who was down $2000, not the bank," McNally wrote. (nothing more at link but pic of the wine)



I agree, I like the wine, not the label.

he is not rich or a snob, and takes wine seriously.

But anyway, cool story.

I think most for sure would not be able to tell.

"Fold in the cheese" is one of my favorite lines in any sitcom ever! That whole scene is hysterical. "David, what does burning smell like?"

I got choked up when they read the letter from the parents of gay children. I love Alexis. Her face tells a whole story. The only other actress I know who could do that as well was Lucille Ball.

I had binge watched Season 6 as soon as it was released, but I didn't even realize there was a documentary. Just finished watching it. Shed a few tears.

THANK YOU!

at a sitcom since early-mid Seinfeld years.... or even attempted to watch any because they are usually painfully stupid - nothing but snarky non-funny one-liners and smirking juvenile references to S-E-X. Maybe a seventh grader would think these shows are funny, but not me. Im well past the age of giggling about sex
