I'm a Binger

Yes, I admit, I am addicted to Britbox and Acorn and I have binge-watched so many shows that I am now speaking with a British Accent, though I love Brokenwood which is from New Zealand. Currently, I am binge watch two at the same time, yes I can multi-task. Silent Witness has 26 seasons, and Inspector George Gently with only 8 series.
While the shows are on I am also writing and last week I did about 40 articles. Right now I am watching episode 5 of Season 6 of the great Australian Bake Off. Well sort of watching because I am writing this, aren't I ? lol
Over the weekend I watch all three seasons of Ted Lasso. I had already watched seasons 1 and 2 but I wanted to watch the entire series at once and it was wonderful.
If you have any suggestions for me I am open to trying something new.

I recently re-watched Lost for the 3rd or 4th time. Next I'm going to watch Manifest as soon as my other streaming services are done. May I ask who you write for? Enjoy your day. Love the picture.

@LindaOHio It could be, they can be difficult but it is worth it, they pay well. I am not a high earner and I made more the ten thousand last year.

@BelleStarr I think they're the ones that I couldn't get accepted to because I no longer had my blog and not many writing samples.

If I remember correctly you're not entirely into syfy which is the genre I enjoy BUT, perhaps you could get a kick out of the Harry Potter movies, I've seen all of them and they were pretty good but I can't seem to get into them as a rerun, go figure.

No, I more into history documentaries and British mysteries, and crime shows. And even though I don't particularly like Nancy Grace she has a show that uses forensic genealogy to solve cold cases that fascinates me.

I know how that can be. I am so that I can't watch those British shows anymore. I can't understand all of what they say. I like to wait until tv series have a few seasons before I watch them. I hate to get interested in a show just to have to get canceled. Enjoy!

Yes there is nothing worse than inventing your heart in characters to have them pulled from your life. I hate that.

I like what you like Belle..I love Britbox too but have not had time to dig in.
You sound a great go getter with the writing too.
Yes I would love to hear your British accent

I remember being very chuffed when I was told in London that I didn’t sound like an American. A big compliment lol

I like to go back when a new season is released too. I often catch things I missed the first time

I find I enjoy the new season more when it is in context. I watch so many different things that I can't keep it all straight.

I love Bridgerton and Virgin River and have watched Bridgerton several times. Have you seen Queen Charlotte the new Bridgerton series? I watched it last week and it is excellent.

@BelleStarr I have Queen Charlotte on my list and am hoping to get to it soon. I'm glad it was excellent and it gives me more incentive to watch it sooner rather than later

That is just a few of the things I've watched. Amazon Prime and YouTube have so much that interests me.

I do used them every day and for the $11 a month it costs me, well worth it.
