Looking Backwards

Currently, I’m recovering from a total knee replacement.  Comes with a bit of downtime afterwards, and it was quite a surprise to discover that I quickly ran into a wall regarding new things to watch. Nothing seemed interesting somehow…I’d start watching something and then stop after 10 minutes. This may have been due to the pain; I just wanted to lose myself in something soothing. There was nothing left to do but to return to the oldies but goodies. You know, the rewatchables.

Here’s my list of shows that I’ve watched multiple times and find soothing. They range in genre but they are all compelling and, to my mind, comforting.

  • Schitt’s Creek
  • Sherlock
  • Grace and Frankie
  • Orphan Black
  • The Magicians
  • The Office
  • Gilmore Girls
  • The Other Two
  • Silicon Valley
  • The Good Place
  • Only Murders in the Building
  • Hacks

What are your favorite rewatchables? I could use some recommendations!

  1. I hope you’re feeling better by now. My favorites are Murder She Wrote and Magnum PI –the original. We watched Magnum every evening during the lockdown. I’m sure that justice always being served helps with whatever I have on my mind.

    Wishing you a speedy recovery!

  2. Sending best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery. Some ones I go back to are Midsomer Murder, Murder She Wrote, the movie Armageddon, and probably a bunch I can’t remember right now. 🙂
