We have hundreds of new movies available to us thanks to Netflix (free to us) and Amazon Prime (also free). Ever since we started using them to watch new movies we’ve experienced a new phenomenon: We find ourselves getting ten to 15 minutes into a movie and just turning it off. We never used to do that.

I would suggest to you, on Amazon, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Funny show, set in the 1950's, which makes it a period piece anymore. Great writing, wonderful acting.

However, since we are on a thread where people seem very upset by some adult situations, be warned, there is some bad language in it. I had read about this series, before I started watching it, that it is loosely based on the early career of Joan Rivers. So, when she is in the small club where she starts out, you will hear bad language.

The show is so well done, I give it a pass on the language. It is actually funny, which I find is not true for most "comedies" any more. Try a couple of episodes, you might like it.
