I don't subscribe to Netflix either but catch a lot of this type of show on TVO or PBS (can't stand commercials!) Also I was able to borrow "Game of Thrones" from the library.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05224823051315463861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372726504543914139.post-9157453114241001252016-11-17T20:24:31.731-05:002016-11-17T20:24:31.731-05:00Yes, I agree!

I need to sign up for AcornTV where all the Brit stuff is and netflix too -- I really want to see The Crown. I love Brit drama and mysteries and here see most of it on PBS but now we (and most stations) can't afford the broadcast rights for those shows that PBS doesn't distribute nationally. Makes me crazy but I understand how expensive they are. So, yes -- services are coming. And Netflix might be soon because I REALLY want to see the Crown.<br /><br />But now, on a totally different and more important note, I hope each and every day brings you one step closer to a return of strength and an alleviation of coughing and all the other horrid effects you are experiencing -- and that the meds do their trick soon. My fragile little lungs empathize with you and my heart hopes you fully recover soon.

May I suggest more excellent British slew TV (no one does murder mystery like the Brits) - Vera; Scott & Bailey; Law & Order UK. I like that they are not bloody gore, have more character development & drama. Call the Midwife is good. Poldark fabulous!

IF I am watching a movie- I am usually doing something else, too. lol Multi-tasking? ha<br /><br />I cannot nap during the day time unless I am dead-sick...and when I wake up I feel worse than I did before I fell asleep. I am like you and usually power through illnesses and find it harder to stay home than to work. lol I will check out Midsomer Murders. Did you watch Call The Midwife? Excellent series set in the 40s(?) in England and it is excellent (and I am NOT a movie watcher either). xo DianaNanaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298962791700019785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372726504543914139.post-30201534320153499782016-11-15T19:25:04.193-05:002016-11-15T19:25:04.193-05:00Oh Rachel, I just can't do Walking Dead.
