Also, three comments from readers:
Sasha on what made you laugh lately: “We’ve been watching How to get to heaven from Belfast. What a wild ride! During the first episode, I was thinking, It’s like the Derry Girls grew up and got into something very dark and way over their heads. And lo and behold, it’s the same writer!!! The absolutely brilliant Lisa McGee. It’s funny. Campy. Gothic. “I swear I’m going to cry when I’m done.”
Marie says about what’s made you laugh lately: “My six-year-old daughter keeps adding the phrase ‘I’ll tell you for free’ after answering a question, because her grandfather says it. Her seriousness when imitating him always makes me laugh.”
Sara says of the 12 recommendations for Black History Month: “I love it Abbott Elementary — As a media scholar on a teacher network, there is so much greatness in fun, friendly sitcoms that also depict redlining, school board bias, vouchers, and all kinds of real community issues in the mainstream!
