Last I checked, the seasons are still a bit scattered as to where you can get them.

Here are my notes as to which seasons are available on which streaming platforms (my mom and I recently finished up season 10):

Vera
Acorntv (Seasons 1, 2, 6, 7)
Hoopla* (1-7, but missing season 3)
Britbox (seasons 3-10)

*Hoopla is a free streaming service through my local library. However, so many people are using it now we have to wait til midnight, check out all the episodes we want and then go to bed. If we wait until later in the day to "check out" episodes digitally (via the Hoopla app on Roku), our library's daily limit is usually reached by that point so we're out of luck.

I subscribe to both Acorn and Britbox via Prime, so between the two channels, I have all 10 seasons.

I'm currently watching Russian Doll on Netflix and can't seem to stop. This is addictive. Guess it's a matter of finding the right show? Yikes.

I recently acquired the whole run of Doc Martin so I may try that next. Or maybe Sherlock with Benedict Cumberbatch. Love that series.

If you're up for some binge reading there's a site called Sopranos Autopsy.

https://sopranosautopsy.com/

Every episode is dissected, really dissected. Fun reading. The author has made it through each individual episode but the finale. Can't wait to read his take on that. He has some interesting ideas.

Not a series binge but I went to check out the new documentary "Val" on Amazon Prime.
About and starring Val Kilmer. Wondered how he is doing now and could not stop watching. Or thinking about it after.

I had never in my entire life heard my mother use the F word until she started watching the Sopranos

I will have to check that out. I’ve read several interpretations of the last episode. Will be interesting to see a new take.

So…from the raw and gritty the Sopranos, I’m moving on to Buffy, the Vampire Slayer. It’s one of my all-time favorites and I haven’t watched it in a long time. Then it will most likely be Angel. Then Firefly. What can I say, I’m a Whedon fangirl.

Buffy could kick Tony Soprano’s butt.

Truth!!!

I watch all the Whedon shows every few years. Used to watch BtVS all the time but realized I needed to branch out and my video collection exploded, LOL!!

The Firefly episode "Out of Gas" is extraordinarily good.
