Edward Bellamy…that name sounds familiar, I will have to look it up. Pink is always a good artist for a show! I don’t know who Andrew Solomon is or the Torch Song Trilogy! The rest are all choices I could agree on!

Check out that one and the follow-up “Equality” by Bellamy, I think you’ll enjoy them. He was very progressive for the 1800s. Torch Song Trilogy was written and produced (directed too, I think) by Harvey Fierstein & Andrew Solomon https://andrewsolomon.com/. My absolute favorite was The Stone Boat, but I’ve loved everything I’ve read by him. He’s an incredible writer, IMO. I hope you have a chance to read him!

I could go with Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase for actress and actor. You have a lot of good stuff, here. The Muppets are SO fun. And thanks for the reminder of laughs in Sixteen Candles.

“And Then There Were None” is, in my opinion, Agatha Christie’s best novel.

It’s one of the few I actually laugh out loud at, and almost every episode, whether I’ve seen it before or not!
