    Are ther further Seasons/Episodes of "Wednesday" to come??
    Might this preclude her taking over as The Doctor??

    There's no "Doctor Who" for her to be a part of at the
    moment. The show is in limbo and no further episodes have
    been commissioned, it could be months before we find out...
    and possibly years before "Doctor Who" returns to our TV
    screens.

    Netflix? I would not even bother.

    The first season was widely liked. I didn't see it, though.

    There really isn't much on Netflix any more, is there? A couple of years
    ago, I realized I was only keeping it in case I wanted to rewatch Bojack Horseman. That wasn't a good enough reason, so I cancelled it.

    Netflix has gone downhill because all of the decent shows
    are now spread over about five different streaming services...

    enough reason, so I cancelled it.

    Never heard of it!

    I think you're right. There are multiple services which carry one or two
    shows I like, but I can't afford to subscribe to all of them, and each individual service doesn't seem worth it.

    I currently have both Hulu and Max, and I watch free, ad-supported Tubi
    more often than both of them together.

    It's well worth watching, if you like quirky and messy and thoughtful.
    It does require Netflix (or piracy), though. They've never released DVDs
    of it. I guess they want us chained to the Netflix service.

    .... and the name of THAT tune is ...............??



    From distant shores, a tune so light,
    In South Pacific's starry night,
    A love song wrapped in colours bold,
    A dream of hearts, both young and old.

    The words are simple, clear, and sweet
    "You've got to have a dream" - repeat,
    A spark to chase what feels so true.
    Talk about things you'd like to do,

    The island's rhythm fills the sky,
    As hearts unite beneath the high
    Palm trees swaying in the breeze,
    Happy Talk whispers through the leaves.

    The song, it sings of joy and cheer,
    Of dreams we hold and hearts sincere,
    A simple thought, a sweet refrain,
    That lifts us up through joy and pain.

    In the wind, and through the rain,
    A melody that soothes the brain,
    You've got to have a dream, they say,
    A beacon bright to light the way.

    So hum the tune, and smile along,
    For Happy Talk will keep you strong
    It’s more than words; it's hope, a light,
    A reminder: dreams make life feel right.
