I watched the first and third episodes. Oh, man. What a bummer. So depressing, especially episode 3. Couldn't even bear it to watch episode 2.

I have to say, I'm am surprised that the only way to get a diagnosis for some things is to *ask the whole world*? How can that be? Is the medical establishment that siloed? How is anyone to have confidence in anything if the best medical establishments in the country cannot figure out a diagnosis. It's not like these people are the first people in history to have what they have.

And it reinforced my belief that there is a lot doctors don't know. So if they tell you that you should do ABC and XYZ drug is safe . . . there's good cause to be skeptical.

Just finished "Diagnosis".

I also finished the new episodes of a Swedish show "Bonus Family"

Now happy to see new episodes of "The Let Down" from Australia.

I also found out that my library gives me free access to Acorn TV. Lots of possibilities!



Not on prime... rats

I had not heard of Acorn TV. British tv? Anything particular you recommend?

Not sure how you get it through your library. Sometimes I feel so behind on stuff...!


Edward and Mrs Simpson is on Amazon and it's free with ads. There aren't many ads and they're pretty short, so they aren't much of a bother.

Just search for "Edward and Mrs Simpson" and don't filter it to look for Prime offerings. It's flagged as "free with ads".

As far as the library is concerned, you just have to check with your local library to see what electronic stuff they subscribe to. Might be e-books, audiobooks, movies, streaming websites, and other online resources...my library is considered one of the top public libraries in the country so we have access to a lot of stuff that isn't offered at smaller libraries.

edit: Here's how I can get to Acorn TV.

https://www.rbdigital.com/

Your library has to subscribe to RB Digital, and you have to have a library card.

Best thing to do is check on your library's website, or in person at the library to see what they might offer.
