@LaFantomette @CammienRay Life is so busy right now that I'm so behind on these shows, but I'm looking forward to catching up and discussing them!

@CammienRay (so I'll keep watching your youtube reviews but I stopped watching the show, as starting with episode 2 it's too boring for me....but tell @Katejohnson314 I am still extremely happy and ADORE this season of All Creatures. ) 💕

What We Watched This Week - Eliza returns without the Duke and so did we youtube.com/live/GWCCKqV1r…

@masterpiecepbs @PBS @LaFantomette Can't wait!!

Welcome home! Return to the cozy world of #AllCreaturesPBS for a new season, premiering January 12 on MASTERPIECE on @PBS.

@LaFantomette After that Lady Jane news, I'm so happy to see this!!

That makes me so happy (and I'm sure @Katejohnson314 too!) 😊... And Tristan is back!

@CammienRay @SouthernSiren @DEADLINE Aaaaaaaahhhhh wwwwwhhhhyyyyyyyy

@SouthernSiren @DEADLINE Oh no! It's not but @Katejohnson314 does watch it!

EXCLUSIVE: Prime Video has opted not to renew ‘My Lady Jane’ for a second season. The news comes seven weeks after all eight episodes from the show’s first season were binge released June 27 tinyurl.com/3w5msft8

@LaFantomette The writing is still wickedly smart, but I think the show (after EP 2) is slightly more endearing and compelling. I could get into the minutia, but essentially the show prioritized character development, especially in Jane and Guilford, more than the book did.

@Katejohnson314 How was the book? I'm hesitant because I heard the vibe is different but it looks interesting.

That scene is da bomb

@LaFantomette It's good, but different. The heart and most of the tone is similar, but the book was YA and this clearly isn't. The narrator is even more present and aware of modern pop culture references. The world lore is slightly different.

@LaFantomette Just finished rereading the book, and I'm sure you've heard that it is very different from the show. Thankfully, there is a good amount of material still left from the book to form the basis of a season 2. So fingers crossed for them to renew it!

@Katejohnson314 ME TOO! It's funny, witty, wild and everything under the sun! SO ENTERTAINING! I'm having so much fun watching this (I have one episode left).

@LaFantomette I'm glad you like it! I've been hoping to hear more of your thoughts! Episode 3 is so cute! I NEED to know what you think when you're done with Episode 4.

@Katejohnson314 I AM SO HAPPY 😊 (That show has been pure joy, absolute pure joy!)

@Katejohnson314 are you at season 4 of #AllCreaturesPBS ? IT'S SO GOOD 💕

@LaFantomette Such a heartbreaking one! The parallels between all the little family moments were so good!

@Katejohnson314 Season 2 was so good! And I just watched s03e05 and it was amazing 😍 but also I'm crying again.

@Katejohnson314 I watched an episode of #AllCreaturesPBS a few days ago and I sobbed so much because it was so beautiful. Siegfried was saving a traumatized horse (along with flashbacks from his days in the war). I'm still recuperating!

@LaFantomette I love that it's not cut and dry. It's not simple or easy. It's hard and she really struggles with it. But it's that way because it's realistic. The pain feels real because no one is the bad guy, sometimes you realize you're just not in love with him and it's better to move on.

@Katejohnson314 IT'S SO WELL DONE !!!!😭🔥❣️😍⭐ I've complained so many times in the past that when it comes to choosing a life partner I don't like when shows have a nasty villain, big drama, etc. But #AllCreaturesPBS was perfect. She cancelled her wedding for the right reasons, no big drama.

@Katejohnson314 ...btw I'm at s01e07...the Christmas episode, just before the wedding.

@LaFantomette Completely agree! Another thing I'll always love is the use of silence and pauses. They know when dialogue or over explanations could be detrimental to the point they're making... So they actually remove dialogue! There are pauses I could write theses about!

@Katejohnson314 The writing is very good. Nothing is not useful, character development is everywhere. I am loving every minute of this series.

@Katejohnson314 I watched s01e05 yesterday, the one where James works at the fair and it was so good! James is such a golden retriever 🤣trying to please everybody!

@LaFantomette Ah yes, the emotional buy-in episode. I totally agree about the music. It reminds me that most PBS Masterpiece soundtracks are so immersive, but since the tone of this show is community, harmony, and hope, the music really reflects that.

@Katejohnson314 I'm at s01e03: first (very random) thought: The music makes me so happy 😊 IDK how to describe it, it's just ...joyful. I wanna move there!

@Katejohnson314 I'm watching the first episode of All Creatures RIGHT NOW! First five minutes;): I'm hooked. This is so feel-good, exactly what I needed! Thanks for the rec!

@LaFantomette I didn't mention this yesterday, but I actually think the s1 is the weakest. I also think the pilot is excellent as a pilot, but the first two eps are probably my least favorite of the series. Ep 3 is where it really picks up and Ep 7 is where I got obsessed.
