Poll TV/Streaming: Some Favorites

Would love to hear some of your favorite TV shows or streaming series.

I have been watching less "news" and utilizing more of the streaming services to relax in the evenings before bed, or while doing some crafting projects.

Finally finished all the episodes of "This Is Us" that I missed - (all 4 seasons are on Hulu) and so ready for NBC to roll out Season 5 on Nov 9

Also on Hulu, I watched the wonderful adaptation of one of my favorite books; "Lark Rise To Candleford"

Watching the Mandelorian on Disney+ and thinking how it really has recaptured the older Star Wars magic!

And my current favorite is the Netflix "Anne With An E" - which is such a different rendition of the beloved "Anne Of Green Gables".

I've been watching a lot this year as I've been so ill and unable to do much else. I think I've watched every nordic noir show or series that I could find. e.g. Borgen, Deadwind and The Bridge on and on. I have watched every Wallander I could find. Just about every show I like is foreign language so it takes a bit of concentration. When I can't deal with that I watch some of the oldies such as Longmire, The Good Wife, Brothers and Sisters, Fringe, Intelligence. Some of these are boxed set series I bought 2nd hand. If all else fails I watch old Gilmore Girls or Dawson's Creek would you believe...

I liked Lenox Hill on our netflix here. It stopped as the pandemic became bad. Hope to see it back in the future. It was eye opening indeed.

I like the Brit cop shows like Hinterland and Shetland. I like documentaries as well, especially music. I don't like violence at all so have to fast forward a bit through most everything. I don't watch an actual tv at all. I just wish streaming was not so expensive here. A couple of the tv channels do have great shows online here but still they use so much of my monthly usage.

p.s. I forgot... currently watching old CSI -Crime Scene Investigation disks that I bought for $2 once at a Lifeline store. That was a bargain indeed although I have to fast forward on those a lot as well.

I'm finding Season 4 of The Crown somewhat cringeworthy to say the least. At times I was thinking I was watching that parody called The Windsors. Such a shame. Sets are magnificent though.

I've taken to watching House Hunters International, Explore tv, Destination and a few other ones that are similar. Also like the off grid building shows. I won't be travelling overseas anymore. I'm glad I saw what I did, but there was so much more. In the House Hunters and similar shows, I get to walk around Spain, Prague, Warsaw, Oslo, Netherlands, Ireland, Scotland etc, even if it's just for a few minutes. Pity they're so repetitive, but I enjoy seeing the architecture and such.

Meant to add last time that I really enjoyed watching Escape to the Chateau.
