I've never been a big fan of horror stories - read & watched many of Stephen Kings and at one time read a lot of Dean Koontz. Loved The Dark Wind - waiting eagerly for 2nd season. I will go back & watch the Mayfair Witches & the PBS show. Thanks for the recommendations. PBS has some good shows - like the older ones - like the one with John Cleese - cant remember the name of it but hes good whatever he does. And As Time goes by with Judy Dench. More than once! Likely not your cup of tea, but then how dull would it be if we all liked the same thing!

I LOVE "As Time Goes By"! Did you see the episode where he tried to go back to building a model ship he'd wanted as a kid?

Yes I did - more than once!! Love the characters - flaws & all. Its just kind of comfortable to watch.

The very best show (in my opinion) is All Creatures Great & Small on PBS. I think this is the third version & somehow - each one is super - actors so believable - actions with the animals the same. Just watched Episode 2 of Season 3.

Thats MY recommendation!

The other series I mentioned wasnt with Judy Dench, but with John Cleese - not Fawlty Towers - it was about an older couple moving in together - & the issues with her son - a real twit. Cant remember the name of it but it was on PBS before they started running As Time goes by a few months ago, I think. My memory works in fits & starts!
