This week I am doing a short list of the TV shows/movies I am enjoying. Here goes!

- The Madison:
In The Madison, the Clyburns uproot their comfortable New York City lives for the wild, untamed beauty of Montana’s Madison River Valley in a search for connection. In my opinion, this is truly a fabulous series. - Why Women Kill:
Why Women Kill is a dark comedy (created by Marc Cherry, Desperate Housewives) that follows the lives of women across different eras—each grappling with betrayal and infidelity. As the series unfolds across decades, it explores the shifting roles of women in society while highlighting the timeless nature of heartbreak, revenge, and resilience. My opinion: It has that Desperate Housewives feel to it. - Remarkably Bright Creatures:
follows Tova Sullivan, a grieving widow who cleans a local aquarium, and her unlikely friendship with Marcellus, a curmudgeonly giant Pacific octopus who pieces together the mystery of her son’s disappearance. Sally Field is truly one of our best actresses. - Hamnet: follows William Shakespeare and his wife, Agnes, as they celebrate the birth of their son, Hamnet.
However, when tragedy strikes and Hamnet dies young, it inspires Shakespeare to write his timeless masterpiece “Hamlet.” In my opinion, this is so well done on many levels. Writing, acting, and costuming. - Outlander: After serving as a British Army nurse in World War II, Claire Randall is enjoying a second honeymoon in Scotland with husband Frank, an MI6 officer looking forward to a new career as an Oxford historian.
Suddenly, Claire is transported to 1743 and into a mysterious world where her freedom and life are threatened. To survive, she marries Jamie Fraser, a strapping Scots warrior with a complicated past and a disarming sense of humor. I think this is probably one of the best shows that have come onto the streaming services.
