There's been some prolonged ill health in my household, which means we've burned through all seven available seasons of All Creatures Great and Small and are looking for a suitable replacement.

If the ill health were mine, I'd just bury myself in 6000 episodes of Poirot and Columbo, but I've been specifically asked for "no murders."

Is there anything out there approximately as cozy and low-key as the Country Vet Adventures, but not about people killing each other for inheritance money? It would help if it were available for free on YouTube, but this is not completely necessary.

Do you think The Durrells would work? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It's been a little while since I've posted here and I'd like to apologize, if (like me under better circumstances) you look forward to reading everyone's book posts on Wednesday, for falling down on the job. There's a sort of obsolete function at the back of my mind that's still going "Wait, wait, wait a few more days, wait until things get back to normal." Unfortunately, there hasn't been a "normal" to get back to, and there isn't going to be.

I've been reluctant to start again, partly because my ability to read has been patchy, and partly because it doesn't matter. But it's something I've enjoyed, and "stop doing everything you might enjoy" isn't actually meaningful action. So the Wednesday Reading Meme will be back in its usual form next week, and this is (I hope) the closest I'll get to Talking About Politics here.

In the meantime, a summary )

Agatha Christie and the rest of the Extended Murderverse might be back next Monday or the Monday after that, but they will also be back.
