I knew there was a reason I liked Nellie...

Thanks for telling us what you’re watching and doing! It was a nice personal touch. I like to watch Tv to relax in the evenings after work a walk and dinner. The Beckham one is on my list and I’ll see it soon probably.

I'm glad Nellie has got a gun and is practicing to defend herself but I suspect her desire for a firearm is due to the large antisemetic demonstrations around the country, which is terrible. I hope she stays safe because I don't want to contemplate how miserable Fridays would be without TGIF to read.

Did somebody hack into your website and substitute People magazine's dross?

Suzy ... and also Sam, need to get a life. Get out in the beautiful outdoors and leave your crippling electronic devices at home!

I'm pretty sure that this is the first issue of this publication to which I had no urge to respond either directly or to any comment. Curmudgeon? In spades, I guess.

I loved the summary of what TFP is reading or watching. Makes it feel cozy and more personal. Great summaries and articles today. 💗

I've been watching all versions of Pride and Prejudice, then moved on to North and South (the Elizabeth Gaskell novel) and now am immersed in the 1983 version of Mansfield Park. Are we detecting a pattern here??

Awesome! I did that too with pride and prejudice then sense and sensibility and all things Austin! Books too!

OK, so I'm not the only one watching old tv series from Series 1, Ep. 1. My daughter tells me that this is one way to cope with anxiety because you know that no monster will be jumping out of the screen at you.

I would watch 30 Rock but the canned laughter drives me crazy

Wife and I are 83 and 81. We give a shit because we liked the show and we enjoyed the review. I learned more and appreciated how someone starting so young with such success was able to persevere and live the life he wants. At a time when a Matthew Perry dies alone in his Spa after decades of drug addiction, seeing someone achieve a worthy life is heartening.

Interesting. Other than Nellie, the entire staff unwinds on a couch. Is this a generational phenomenon?
