TV & Film The TV Room

[Emma JC]

We are now in Season 5 of The Resident and the one thing I really like about the show is that it makes me feel things.... it makes me laugh sometimes, it makes me cry and everything in between - for me that is how I measure shows and movies and it rates very highly.

We watched one of the last episodes of Young Sheldon the other day.

Spoiler

It's the episode where his dad dies. Apparently, in the next episode there is a funeral ...

I really loved the second season of The Diplomat. It only had 6 episodes and a really great ending.

I started watching Sky Med on Paramount+. It's a Canadian show that takes place up in the wilderness of Manitoba and is about paramedics that fly small planes to rescue and treat people. There are several Indigenous people featured. I have watched a couple episodes and it's pretty interesting. Of course there is drama among the young characters (most appear to be 20 somethings) and romance.

I thought The Penguin was really fab. I didn't watch The Batman film, but I think I will watch the second film. I read it has be delayed so it will come out in 2026!

We are about to watch The West Wing for the first time.

I watched it for the first time 20 years ago. After it was over and it came out on DVD. My library had the whole collection. Then about 10 years ago I watched it over again as reruns. I would watch it in the morning while eating breakfast or lunch.
It's good on so many levels.
One of the things I loved about it is that the world it portrays is such a "if only", and in mostly good ways.
What is both great and scary is that many of the plots and themes are still pretty much relevant.

"The show is not a documentary but rather an imagining of what our government could look like in a more perfect world."

Opinion: 'The West Wing' is a Timeless Show - Pepperdine Graphic

Despite originally airing over 24 years ago, Aaron Sorkin's "The West Wing" has continued to penetrate pop culture. Assistant Perspectives Editor Fiona Creadon examines why that may be.

Allison Janney from The West Wing is in The Diplomat. It is set in the UK, I think you would like it. It is on Netflix.
