the GOP and how powerful and shred McConnel is i asked my granddaughter to name a good series to watch on TV.
She said, "Home Economics." So i started the series now I can't stop watching. I had never heard of it before but it is a welcome diversion. Anybody else??

I highly recommend turning off the entire spectrum of MSM and seeking your news elsewhere. I use NHK, DW, France 24, BBC, PBS & NPR as they all pretty much skip the talking head filling airtime between ads for drugs we never knew we needed.

(5,168 posts)I was enchanted by Melissa Rauch, so I started watching those. Now they're preceding BBT with Young Sheldon, and I'm watching that too. Trouble is, it takes up too much of my evening several nights a week.

(25,969 posts)I also love re-watching Big Bang Theory for the escapism and the laughs. My current semi-new series on Amazon Prime (free with Acorn) is The Brokenwood Mysteries. It's New Zealand's version of Misomer Murders with an amazing musical soundtrack. The main character is a detective who's a big country music fan, which I am not, but I really enjoy NZ's bluesy version of country songs sprinkled throughout the episodes. Critics have complained about episode length (1.5 hrs w/no commercials) but I love it because it allows more room for character development and intricate stories.
