There’s been an EXPLOSION of streaming services, original content providers, YouTube videos. And with the introduction of Peacock, NBC’s upcoming service, all three major network players will now have their own streaming/content partners […]
Little Women was my first favorite book. I think I’ve probably read it 50 times, and cried, laughed and ached at pieces of it every time. I thought I had seen every version – I haven’t (see the link to a list later this post) – and liked some much more than others. And I […]
