This is the first time I am ever seeing her name!

Is this who it is?

Who I also have no memory of ever prior seeing?

The way you process sarcasm is unique.....

I finally got it! You will probably never encounter a more literal, non-figurative person who is nearly completely incapable of reading between the lines!

No.

My TV watching is fairly much confined to C-Span, the Yankees, the Celtics, Providence College basketball, MLB Network. No TV shows.

omg lmao

The main character, Sheldon Cooper, is a lot like you describe yourself. In many ways, the more I think of it. You might really enjoy it. It was one of the best shows of the 2000s.

If you have to explain it, the effect is lost.

Thanks.

I passed it on to a friend who knows me well to get his opinion. He watches a lot of TV, including that show. Paradoxically he also reads about 800 books a year.

I do have Amazon Prime and I have watched TV series just before I drift off to sleep. So if he agrees with you that will be my next drift off to sleep TV series to watch.

Just finished watching three seasons of Bewitched. Sometimes it takes me a whole week to watch one episode if I cannot keep my eyes open for five minutes (or less) for many nights in a row.

Sent this on to my friend. His reply:

"Mr. TV agrees!!!



Big Bang Theory is an all-time great TV show. There’s also a lot of resemblance between Sheldon and both of us."

I will now go to Amazon Prime to see if it currently available for free there. If not I have alternative ways of watching it.

Thanks for the apt suggestion!

This seemed the most related topic to put this here:

No over the air antenna? It’s constantly on in reruns. But you should start from the beginning.

Where I live I think we can get three channels via antenna at best. Cable or satellite is a must.

But I have another way to watch all of them so I can start at the beginning.

Is she the one that died of kidney failure?

These were $1.00 a year ago. $1.27 a few months ago. Now $1.48.
