I would like to put in a word for Mr. D. It was originally an CBC show, but the whole series is now available on Prime. It’s about a hapless, inept private school teacher. It’s a hilarious watch for anybody, but schoolteachers will especially appreciate it.

Yes. Living in a border state, I used to watch the episodes as they came out over-the-air. I noticed that he's the host of Canadian Family Feud now. He's a lot more subdued on that show. I was expecting him to be Mr. D-- haha.

Never thought in a million years that I would agree. Always thought Pete Davidson was overhyped and a complete waste on SNL. But this show is great, if not way off color at times. Plenty of outrageous "shock" humor to go along with some real "smarter" humor and warmth. Joe Pesci must've seen something in the writing as the show came together because he just doesn't do much anymore. But he steals every scene that he is in, as one would expect. And the whole season clocks in at about 4 hours (8, 1/2 hour episodes). Contrast this with the bloated (final?) season of Ted Lasso that became so self-important that it had 13 1 hour episodes. Stuck with that one out of obligation. Went from pandemic comfort food to preachy, but quick. Felt more like chopping wood than a Lonnie Ropp rule set.

Finally saw the finale. I had seen everything up to that point when I posted. It did redeem itself (a bit)- haha. Doesn't take away from the fact that there were a lot of half-baked storylines just sort of cobbled together though, making for unnecessarily long episodes. That's where it fell down for me.

Got MGM+ for 99 cents a month for two months, mostly to see The Rolling Stones documentary. Now I'm hooked on the show "From".

Hey, that was me! Just getting going on season 2.

Here's one that both you and your wife can enjoy together on Paramount Plus: "Joe Pickett". It's based on a book series. Joe is a Wyoming game warden who always finds himself getting mixed up in crime fighting that goes way beyond the scope of a game warden. My wife likes it because it reminds her a bit of Virgin River. I like it because I always enjoy underestimated characters in fish-out-of-water situations, particularly in a western atmosphere.

Yes! That one looks like it could be really good.
