MizAnnThrope There is a thread on here already dealing with the Watch-series site. I introduced that site here a number of years ago and folks seem to always have problems when they first try to use it. I find that the problems come from not following instructions. There is No need to jump through hoops or move through six or seven screens! The screens are a form of pop-up/redirects and That is why I use a blocker. Oh yeah .. The site and the programs on the site can be viewed from anywhere! Below is one of my posts .. copied and pasted here: If you are talking about the Watch Series site that I brought up .. did you follow the rest of my advice? Use Firefox and an ad blocker. There is NO so-called utility program to download and there is NO reason to give any information .. to anyone to view the programs. I have tried using Opera, IE and other browsers with the site and have experienced the pop-up ads and redirects .. same as you and that is why I only use firefox with a pop-up blocker now. I have used the site for years and have never had a problem. With the multiple links for each episode .. sometimes one wont work and I'll just find one that does.

Loved Big Little Lies, and the book was very good too. The first movie series was very close to the book, so I wonder how the second series will go. I’m in the middle of part two of Mrs Maisel. I love it, although some haven’t enjoyed the second part as much as the first, I find it to be full of surprises and beautiful costuming. And I like Tony Shalhoub in anything he has played in so there is that.

What it's like for me here..it's hard to write about it, I mean in this format of short(or even long, in my case) posts. I grew up with this radar though..I sense things..I've a pretty good compass of good and evil. It's hard to understand a country-any country-until you lived there. Books help of course. good books I mean. Yet still. Sometimes even physical presense is not enough-you need to really spend years somewhere. I'm afraid to count how many years I am here-and it's only now I feel that I'm closer to understanding all the complexity. So no wonder people here can't wrap their mind about things that happenned ocean plus away. I'll try to be brief..not about US for now, but about Chernobyl times.. They told only because they couldn't afford not to tell, at some point. They always seem to feel they have a lot, a lot of disposable resources. Like people, for example. I don't mean the country, there are good folks everywhere-I mean the state. the empire. There were many things they never told about. Including catastrophes and accidents. Some things that they deemed not comme-il-faut, that hurt their image and their proclamations, simply didn't exist. They existed-but they were swept under the carpet with such efficiency one hardly had time to blink. All the numbers of people they deliberately killed, repressed, deported, misplaced, etcetera-it all can be easily googled. And it's tens of millions. all of it sounds surreal. yet it was incredibly real. Here they were just, well..they weren't even in an active mode of evil. They just kept silent because they could, and until they could not. As for the writing..no..I didn't think about it, at least not in terms of describing big societal things like Chernobyl There are many very fine writers. And I just recently read some memoirs of different people who knew Leo Tolstoy-and it seems I share his opinion about writing. Which was approximately "don't write unless you feel you completely and utterly can't resist anymore" (he also thought, like me, it should be "useful'. The whatever you write. For the mankind. But we strongly disagree on poetry..me and Leo Tolstoy. lol) also I do write, in a way..it's too much of me here even in this thread)) Re Tired, I've been to Lvov-yes, it's a very beautiful city. I was with my schoolmates, we had a class trip there. I remember it very fondly.

CherryFizz, I watch H&I pretty regularly as well :-) But when I was married I was pretty much force fed all the Star Trek shows....and Battlestar Galactica, Stargate, Babylon 5, etc., etc., etc......so those I now avoid. But I like the other cop shows - NYPD Blues, Nash Bridges. Monk, Jag and The District. And West Wing is available on Netflix, if you get that. I re-watch the entire series every now and again. IMO, one of the best shows to ever appear on TV!!
